| Christmas Island — Scale: 1:18000 |
The little rectangular inset positioned over the anchorage (northern end of the island; opposite side from the airstrip) is the size of a 4x6 foot table IF the island was modeled at 1:1200.

Merry Christmas
To celebrate Christmas Day a little map of Christmas Island.
The graphic corresponds to a 48 x 72 inch (4x6 ft) tabletop. To fit on a 4x6 ft table the island has been drawn at a scale of 1:18000. This is 1/15th of the size it would be if it had been drawn at a scale of 1:1200. However the buildings and ships near the airstrip do represent 1:1200 scale models.
