Details

The National Institute for Cartography and Remote Sensing (http://www.inct.mdn.dz/) sells maps of Algeria. Both topographic and thematic maps. Maps are not available online, as they are being sold.

A list of maps is shown here (http://www.inct.mdn.dz/site%20anglais/web_inct_sim/style/images/cartes1_gene.gif), though most of them are not according to the required scale, there is one "Carte d'Algerie et ses environs" is at 1:200,000.

Here there are topographic maps of scales 1:50,000 and 1:200,000, http://www.inct.mdn.dz/site%20anglais/web_inct_sim/act-ctopographique.php - and here are spatial maps

Not sure how often the maps are updated.
