This political map of the Pacific uses a bright, easy to read color palette featuring blue oceans and stunning shaded relief that has been featured on National Geographic wall maps for over 75 years. This map includes insets of some of the key islands that pepper the region. This map is drawn in the Mercator projection, standard for navigation because it represents any course of constant bearing as a straight segment.
Names of geographic features such as international boundaries, currents and fracture zones are carefully placed on the map to maintain legibility.
National Geographic's maps are the standard by which all other reference maps are measured. The maps are meticulously researched and adhere to National Geographic's convention of making independent, apolitical decisions based on extensive research using multiple authoritative sources.
This map is found in National Geographic's 10th Edition World Atlas, published to mark the 100th anniversary of National Geographic Cartography, and is now available as a stand alone product.
Printed on polypropylene, an ideal material for wall maps as the printing brings out rich colours, and crisp edges for readability. The material is stronger than most papers and unlikely to crease or rip. The matte finish eliminates glare, and adds texture to the map. Ideal for display.
Your map is rolled and packaged in a sturdy tube to protect it during shipment.
