Physical map of the Alps with a shaded relief effect.
Discover the grandeur of the Alps, stretched over a length of over 1,200km, across eight countries. This map provides a comprehensive exploration of the iconic mountain range, featuring labeled mountain ranges, major peaks, winding rivers, and vast plains. From the towering heights of Mont Blanc to the serene lowlands, every geographical element is intricately depicted, offering both beauty and precision. Whether you're a geography enthusiast, an adventurer, or simply captivated by the majesty of the Alps, this map serves as the ultimate guide to understanding and appreciating this legendary region.
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.
You can identify on the map over 125 mountains and mountain ranges as well as over 350 mountain peaks (name and height).
The names of the various elements on the map are in the language corresponding to the country in which they are located.
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 (places, roads, rivers, lakes, land use, political and administrative borders, etc.) are exported to scale and superimposed on the rendered model of the terrain. The layers of information used come from OSM (Open Street Maps). Additional information, like names of the mountain ranges, peaks, plateaus, hills, plains come from various sources on the Internet.
