**5.2 Prepare thematic maps according to the required scale**

Ideally, the various thematic maps needed for analysis purposes in the preparation of the RDTR are in accordance with the scale of the plan produced in the RDTR, namely at a scale of 1:5000. However, in reality, the various thematic maps needed, especially thematic maps related to physical conditions, have never been mapped at the 1:5000 scale. The largest scale ever made is on a 1:25,000 scale map for an area the size of a district. Meanwhile, for agencies/institutions that provide various thematic maps, the provision of thematic maps on a larger scale, up to a scale of 1:5000, may not be a priority. This resulted in a priority gap that could result in the unavailability of the maps needed for RDTR planning activities at the study location.
