English term or phrase: USGS quadrangle maps

"USGS quadrangle maps drawn at a scale of 1" = 2000' and contour interval of..."

Como sugerem "USGS quadrangle maps"? Esse USGS aparece de repente no livro. Encontrei o seguinte para isso: United States Geological Survey. OK. Mas haveria algum nome mais específico, TÉCNICO para "quadrangle maps"?

Tenho estas duas definições para "quadrangle" e que se encaixam aqui:

===

the area shown on one of the standard topographic map sheets published by the U.S. Geological Survey: approximately 17 mi. (27 km) north to south and from 11 to 15 mi. (17 to 24 km) east to west.

===

The area of land shown on one atlas sheet charted by the U.S. Geological Survey.

===

Obrigado.
