Virginia State Three Dimensional 3D Raised Relief Map

Virginia State Three Dimensional 3D Raised Relief Map

• Horizontal Scale: 1:770,000 (1" = 12.2 miles)
• Vertical Exaggeration: 6x (1" = 10,700 ft.) and vertical relief of .54”
• Size: 3D model area 40" x 17.5", overall size 42" x 19.5"

This 3D Virginia Geophysical Raised Relief Map uses a subtle elevation color ramp image to emphasize the changes in elevation across the state. Annotations identify county boundaries, cities, towns, mountains, ridges & valleys, as well as roadways, waterways, and state and national parks. Surrounding states are identified but subdued in order to make Virginia stand out as the theme of this map.

This large map is available in two formats: fully framed and ready to hang in a black anodized aluminum frame (see the additional photos) or unframed, perfect for pinning to a bulletin board.

How are these three dimensional raised relief maps made?

Each raised relief map starts as a map printed on a flat study sheet of vinyl. It is carefully registered over a 3D model that is made from USGS digital elevation model data. The vinyl is heated to make it pliable and a vacuum is created to form the map over the model. 

Framing options

This large map is available fully framed and ready to hang or unframed, perfect for pinning to a bulletin board.
