Description
Potiskum is located in the southwestern part of Yobe State, in the northeastern region of Nigeria. This topographic map document, titled POTISKUM S.W. (Sheet 86 S.W., Edition 1), represents a spatial reference published by Federal Surveys, Nigeria. Rendered at a scale of 1:50,000, the map delivers a systematic visualization of the physical terrain, natural hydrography, and human infrastructure across the Potiskum South-West quadrangle in Borno State. The spatial content features standardized cartographic symbols defining settlements, transport networks, vegetation cover, elevations, and administrative boundaries.
Designed as an official reference for geographical analysis, regional planning, resource development, and civil infrastructure, the document provides accurate cartographic coverage of the Potiskum region. Federal Surveys issued the map as an essential tool for public administration and technical surveying.
