This extraordinary map art displays the state of North Dakota in a colorful topographical style like you've never seen before: a combination of a North Dakota reference map, North Dakota physical map, and an artistic North Dakota poster. The spectacular topographical image of the map was created by using digital elevation data to produce a 3-D representation of North Dakota's terrain. The landscape is then colored according to elevation. The result is a striking colorful image of North Dakota that is entirely accurate and incredibly detailed - even the smallest hills and valleys are clearly visible. Though North Dakota is a vast state in the great plains, the subtle topography comes to life in this style of map which customizes the color range specifically for North Dakota's elevation range. The gradual increase of elevation from East to West is very pronounced. Specific natural features of North Dakota, such as the Badlands, Red River Valley, Drift Prairie, Turtle Mountains, and the Missouri Plateau, are all clearly visible in this map. The map, while primarily a visual physical map, also includes all major towns and cities of North Dakota - adding usefulness to the map without cluttering it or detracting from North Dakota's physical beauty. It doesn't matter if you're looking for a piece of map art or a North Dakota reference map, this North Dakota map poster fits the bill perfectly and will look sensational 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
- North Dakota 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 North Dakota'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 North Dakota 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.
