Overview
The World Executive Political Enlarged Map demonstrates the earth's geography in beautiful earth-toned shades. The political divisions of the landmasses are outlined on the National Geographic map in strong colors, and the underwater fractures, ridges and seamounts are detailed over the ocean with shading. The North and South Polar Regions are displayed in insets in the corners of the executive map; along with two other insets that depict world densities and land/vegetation use. The World Executive Political Enlarged Map is a simultaneously educational and decorative addition to the home, school or office. The lamination allows this map to retain its quality for years to come.
National Geographic
National Geographic is regarded as one of the world's foremost authorities on geography. For almost a century, the society has been making political, physical and thematic maps with great cartographic merit. The society uses modern digital mapping techniques to enhance the geography of these high quality cartographic charts. Since 1998, National Geographic has officially switched over to the Winkel Tripel Map Projection to try to mitigate the spatial distortion inherent to maps. The National Geographic organization aims to craft products that "inspire people to care about and explore the world" through extensive research of the planet's relief and upholding a rigorous standard of cartographic excellence. The society's passion for accuracy in portraying the world has helped maintain their first-rate status as one of the best resources for geographic concerns.
