natural scale
White keys only
A natural scale in music is the major scale, so called because it uses no sharps or flats—the white keys on a piano from C to C.
In cartography and modeling, natural scale (or representative fraction) expresses the ratio between a map or model and the real world: a 1:100,000 scale means one unit on the map equals 100,000 units on the ground.
