Physical map of North America, multi-layered and scalable to whatever size you want without losing the quality. Colored by altitude, ideal for illustrations, prints or multimedia projects.

Provides physical details, land elevations, minor islands, rivers, natural and artificial lakes and others features type. The map is fully vector, including shaded relief and elevation ranges represented by hypsometric tints.

The color ramp of the elevation polygons on the map is derived from ASTER GDEM data collected by METI and NASA. With elevation contours with 100 meters interval the first 1,000 meters. The selected palette have color gradient adapted for topography.

It contains the major physical features of North and Central America with their labels. Texts placed manually depending on the orientation of the elements. All texts can be modified: are texts, no outlines. The typographies utilized are appropriate for use in mapping, maintaining readability in small spaces and on complex backgrounds of the map.
