More than just political borders, this map and globe combination puts the emphasis on elevation and physical features. Both the maps and globe are made for advanced middle school, high school, and college lessons. Made of a non-tear material, these maps work with standard map rails in your classroom, and can roll up or down separately.
The world map features a contour to the illustration to create a curved appearance. In addition to accurate political borders, seven shades of color depict elevations and depth across land and oceans. Major cities, landforms, and lines of longitude and latitude are clearly visible, too. Two world views with the North and South Poles in the center are also included. The U.S. map features accurate political borders, and major cities, roadways, and physical features are visible. Eight color shades show elevation levels across land and oceans. A detailed map legend and a U.S.-centric world view is included.
Sitting on a round, brass-toned metal base, the globe shows political borders, elevation levels, and lines of latitude. Political borders and physical relief across land and oceans are illustrated. Thousands of man-made and physical locations are labeled with easy-to-read type. There is a full gyro meridian surrounding the globe that is notched with latitude measures. Raised relief is enhanced with seven different shades of color- five for land, and two for water.
