Physical map of South America, 105x140 cm, scale 1: 8 000 000, laminated on strips

Physical Wall Map of South America is a detailed general geographic edition of large format (105x140 cm) that visualizes the natural structure of the planet's wettest continent. The map was created by the "Institute of Advanced Technologies" adhering to the highest standards of academic accuracy. Thanks to the scale of 1: 8 000 000, it is an ideal tool for the educational process and scientific analysis. The strips make it easy to attach the map to the wall.

Geographical Content and Detailing:

• Relief: Hypsometric tinting (depth and altitude scale) vividly conveys the continent's contrasts: from the majestic Andes ranges (with Aconcagua peak, 6962 m) and the Guiana Highlands to the extensive Amazon and La Plata Lowlands. Active volcanoes (e.g., Cotopaxi) are marked.
• Hydrography: Extremely detailed river basins (Amazon, Parana, Orinoco), waterfalls (Angel, Iguazu), as well as high-altitude lakes (Titicaca) and lagoons (Maracaibo).
• Oceanography: The Pacific and Atlantic Ocean areas show the seabed relief (basins, ridges) and directions of currents: cold (Peru/Humboldt, Falkland) and warm (Brazil, Guiana), which shape the region's climate.
• Mineral Resources: Special symbols mark deposits of oil, gas, ferrous and non-ferrous metal ores, gold, etc.

Unique Information Supplements:
