This striking physical world map, produced by the US Defense Mapping Agency, is Pacific centred with Australia right in the middle (where it should be!). The map comes either in plain paper or with a heavy duty laminate for extra durability.
Features:
- various international and other boundaries delineated
- relief indicated by contours, shading, and hypsometric tints
- heights in meters
- depths in fathoms indicated by soundings and bathymetric curves and tints
- shipping lanes shown with distances in nautical miles
- country capitals symbolized
- cities and towns classified by population
- detailed symbolization of hydrographic features
The map also shows the International Date Line with clock times (military and conventional) at 15º intervals based on noon at Greenwich. English translations of local names are used and there is an index and a legend for populated places, ice limits, boundary symbolizations, and tint band guides.

Gloss Laminate
Gloss laminate makes colours look more vibrant and stand out more, but is quite shiny (reflective). If you’re planning on using a marker of any sort, this is a better choice because it’s easier to clean. Your print will be fully encapsulated (so laminated on both sides) in durable 80 micron laminate and will last you a lot longer than plain paper.
Matte Laminate
Matte laminate has a smooth, non-reflective, very classy looking surface. I wouldn’t say it dulls colours, but it doesn’t make them ‘pop’ (I hate that I just used that word) in the way that gloss does. Matte can be drawn on with pencil (and erased), but is harder to clean if you use markers. Your print will be fully encapsulated (so laminated on both sides) in durable 80 micron laminate and will last you a lot longer than plain paper.
Canvas
Everything looks better on canvas! Something about the texture really makes prints look wonderful. It is quite expensive though. We use a very high quality 340gsm artistic matte canvas. Your canvas print will come rolled with a roughly 50mm white border to allow you to have it stretched or mounted however you wish.
