Map of the Municipalities with Extended Authority 1 : 50,000
The Map of Municipalities with Extended Competence 1:50 000 (MORP 50) is a topographic map providing a comprehensive view of the administrative district of the respective municipality. The map is produced on the basis of the Base Topographic Map of the Czech Republic 1:50 000 (ZTM 50). The map format is designed so that the administrative territory of each municipality with extended competence is displayed on a separate map sheet. The map sheets have no map frame; the map is processed and printed up to the edge of the sheet. Compared to the source maps, the content is modified by highlighting the boundaries of administrative territories and by colour-coding the names of municipalities with extended competence and municipalities with an authorised municipal office. The map is further supplemented with thematic content, such as the seat of the administrative office, post office, and selected elements of technical infrastructure (waste disposal sites, wastewater treatment plants, and water treatment plants). The map sheets include the geographical grid (ETRS89), and each sheet contains a legend. In addition to the administrative districts of municipalities with extended competence, the Map of the Capital City of Prague is also produced in the MORP 50 style. A total of 206 maps are available.

Abstract: The Map of Municipalities with Extended Competence 1:50 000 (MORP 50) is a topographic map providing a comprehensive view of the administrative district of the respective municipality. The map is produced on the basis of the Base Topographic Map of the Czech Republic 1:50 000 (ZTM 50). The map format is designed so that the administrative territory of each municipality with extended competence is displayed on a separate map sheet. The map sheets have no map frame; the map is processed and printed up to the edge of the sheet. Compared to the source maps, the content is modified by highlighting the boundaries of administrative territories and by colour-coding the names of municipalities with extended competence and municipalities with an authorised municipal office. The map is further supplemented with thematic content, such as the seat of the administrative office, post office, and selected elements of technical infrastructure (waste disposal sites, wastewater treatment plants, and water treatment plants). The map sheets include the geographical grid (ETRS89), and each sheet contains a legend. In addition to the administrative districts of municipalities with extended competence, the Map of the Capital City of Prague is also produced in the MORP 50 style. A total of 206 maps are available.
Purpose: MORP 50 belongs to the thematic national map series. MORP 50 maps are topographical in character and contain planimetry, altimetry, and map lettering. They are particularly suitable for the study and assessment of the geographical environment in a broader context, for agendas relating to the registration, planning, and design of linear and network infrastructure, the preparation of territorial development principles, and similar purposes, typically at the level of the administrative area of a municipality with extended powers or at district level.

Maintenance info
Maintenance and update frequency: annually
Date of planned source revision: 2027-06-30
Maintenance note: From 2008 to 2019, MORP 50 maps were published gradually (approximately one quarter of the maps per year) in line with the areal update of the Base Map of the Czech Republic 1:50 000 (ZM 50). During the production of the 1st edition of the ZTM 50 (2020–2023), updates to MORP 50 were suspended. From 2024, MORP 50 maps are updated annually.
Maintenance note: The currently planned periodic update cycle for the source ZTM 50 data on the basis of ZABAGED® and Geonames data is 2–3 years. Continuous updates of roads and railways, administrative division, extensive built-up areas, and MORP 50 thematic data beyond the scope of ZTM 50 are carried out annually.
