Federate Malay State (1922-1945), better known as the F.M.S. Survey Department, was established in the early 20th century to produce detailed surveys of British Malaya and the Straits Settlements. The survey department had offices in most major Malayan ports, including Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Penang (Georgetown), and Malacca. The F.M.S. was the first official survey organisation to publish detailed scientifically produced maps of the region.
