The maps are annotated in Russian and consist of a total of 16 images. In 1998, Zaitsev et al. translated it into English. For this digitization, 7 themes will be selected for digitization, namely: 1) Distribution of frozen and unfrozen ground,2)Mean annual temperature of frozen and unfrozen ground at the depth of zero annual amplitude,3)Thick of permafrost,4)Depth from the surface and thickness of relict permafrost, 5)Distribution of permafrost containing cryopegs, 6)Thickness of permafrost containing cryopegs, 7)Distribution of permafrost with depth。
