Minimalist physical map of Iceland with a shaded relief effect.
Meticulously crafted map, showcasing the island's intricate geographical tapestry in unparalleled detail. From towering glaciers and volcanic peaks to vast lava fields and winding fjords, every feature of Iceland's unique landscape is brought to life. This map captures the dramatic interplay between fire and ice that has shaped the land, offering a comprehensive view of its extraordinary terrain. Perfect for explorers, geographers, or nature enthusiasts, this map invites you to delve into the awe-inspiring topography of one of the world’s most remarkable islands.
The map includes all the landforms that can be displayed at this scale: rivers and streams, lakes, plains, hills and plateaus, passes, mountain ranges and mountain peaks, glaciers, lava fields, etc.
There are no labels for the various elements on the map.
The map is made at an exceptional resolution (15,000 x 10,000 pixels), allowing large size printing at impeccable quality.
For the color gradients, symbolizing the depth of the seas and oceans (where applicable), navigational maps were used for maximum accuracy.
The making of the map begins with the digital elevation model (DEM), which is rendered in a special software to achieve the effect of shaded relief.
Then, the layers of information are exported to scale and superimposed on the rendered model of the terrain. The layers of information used come from OSM (Open Street Maps) and navigational maps.
The text and names on the map are in Icelandic.
