Accurate and up-to-date! This classic map has been enlarged to mural size while keeping the same cartographic detail for which National Geographic is renowned. The Winkel Tripel projection minimizes distortions near the North and South Poles. In addition to the wealth of place names and details on the map, there are also informational insets of the polar regions, world population and land use.
The map mural comes in 3 sections and is hung like wallpaper (it includes instructions for installation). It can be easily trimmed to fit around widows, outlets, or any other particular needs.
