It is intended to facilitate all those interested in speleology, so that they know what is in the file and what still needs to be added. The research and the map material are the many years of work Of many cavers and speleologists from all over the country, noted, as far as is known and possible, on each sheet. The materials in the Main File of the Caves of the Bulgarian Federation of Speleology were collected and arranged by Eng. Radush Radushev /Chichko Radush/, Zdravko Iliev /Zdravetsa/ and Ivo Tachev. Data from the electronic file of Hinko were also used. It is important to know that the GPS coordinates were taken at different times and with different accuracy. They are approximate and can give quite a serious error. The electronic version of the card index is available at caves.speleo-bg.org/. The PDF format of this atlas is available at speleo-bg.org/library/ and academia.edu. The full-scale maps are available in the card index of the Bulgarian Society of Speleology.

For some caves, the precise location is unknown. It has been replaced by the location of the corresponding village.
