This colorful and artistic map of Connecticut is a topographical physical map unlike anything you've ever seen. This visually stunning map serves as both an artistic poster and a Connecticut reference map combined into one splendid map. The sensational image of the map was created by using digital elevation data to produce a 3-D model of Connecticut's terrain. The landscape is then colored according to elevation. The result is a stunning image of Connecticut that is entirely accurate and incredibly detailed - even the tiniest hills and valleys are clearly visible. Though not thought of as a particularly mountainous state, this style of map really brings out the natural beauty of Connecticut's unique and roaming landscape. The various highlands in the eastern and western portions of the state and the central valley running through the middle are all clearly visible. The map, while mostly a visual physical map, also includes the major towns and cities of Connecticut - adding usefulness to the map without cluttering it or detracting from Connecticut's physical beauty. It doesn't matter if you're looking for a piece of unique map art or a Connecticut reference map, this Connecticut map poster fits the bill and will look spectacular when displayed on your wall. This same map style is also offered for other states and countries. This map includes the following features:
- Topographical coloration of terrain
- Scale which matches color to corresponding elevation values
- Three-dimensional shaded relief
- Connecticut cities and towns with population greater than 1000 (source: 2010 census)
- Legend
- Note: The purpose of this map is to provide a visual representation of Connecticut's topography and landscape. In order to maintain a clean and uncluttered image, map detail is limited to towns and cities only.
The Wall Map of Connecticut Topo is printed on 24lb. premium coated bond paper. It is also laminated on both sides using 3mm hot lamination, which protects your wall map and allows you to write on it with dry-erase markers.
