Contexto: Levantamento topográfico


1 ESCALAS DE TRABALHO CONSIDERADAS
As escalas espaciais de análise circunscrevem-se à área de influência dos impactes do projecto, variando consoante o descritor em estudo, tendo como base três tipos distintos de escalas:
Loca - Área de implementação física do Projecto e sua envolvente imediata. A área de estudo considerada é delimitada pelas extremas da propriedade.
Envolvente - Área de influência do Projecto, dando especial destaque a determinados descritores, como a Paisagem e a Biologia.
Local / Regional - Integração do Projecto na variável socio-económica.

As escalas de trabalho cartográficas para análise serão, no geral, duas - uma escala de inserção e uma outra de trabalho:
v Escala (s) de inserção - 1: 50 000, 1: 25 000 (escalas mais abrangentes), assim como as escalas de trabalho do próprio Projecto de Execução.
v Escala (s) de trabalho - Escalas utilizadas pelo Projecto de Execução, nomeadamente 1:1.000 ou 1:2.000, para além de outras consideradas adequadas.

Can anyone tell me what these "Escalas de Trabalho" are called in English?

Thanks a million!
