Benchmark Maps Japan Wall Map (54" x 38" - Rolled Canvas)($54.95Value)

Description

This large, general reference map of Japan portrays the nation in all three-dimensions. The Transverse Mercator map projection is rotated 8 degrees at 1:1,800,000 to encompass all of the mainland, and most of the Japanese islands. At one-quarter of the scale (1:7,200,000) the inset map was necessary to keep the main map scale as large as possible. Land cover was chosen to idealize the landscape in conjunction with the terrain. Similarly, bathymetric colors were chosen to help highlight the rugged breadth of features at depth.
