truescale
Truescale is a term used in modeling, cartography, and digital design to indicate that a representation preserves exact proportional relationships to a real-world reference. It implies that measurements on the representation correspond directly to real-world dimensions according to a defined scale, without deliberate stylization or distortion.
In physical scale modeling and tabletop contexts, true scale means that model dimensions align precisely with
In architecture and engineering drawings, true scale describes drawings produced at standard scales (such as 1:50
In cartography, the idea of true scale is more nuanced. Map distances are related to ground distances
Limitations of truescale include unit consistency, conversion accuracy, and practical tolerances in fabrication. When properly applied,
