Glass Frame : South America, topographic map
Mounted Prints from Science Photo Library
South America, topographic map
South America, topographic map. Highlands and lowlands of the continents are also shown, as ridges and flat areas. North America and the Caribbean (top left) and Antarctica (bottom right) are also seen, along with the Atlantic Ocean (right) and the Pacific Ocean (left). The seabed depth varies from shallow (light blue) on the continental shelves, to deep ocean basins (dark blue). Topographic and bathymetric data is usually gathered by using aerial and satellite imagery combined with radar and sonar mapping. The satellites in this case were NOas POES satellites

8"x6" Glass Mount
Wall mounted or free-standing, these black edged glass frames feature a smooth chamfered edge and a stylish black border (on back face of the glass). Manufactured from 4mm thick glass, Glass Mounts are a durable, professional way of displaying and protecting your prints. Your 8x6 print is slotted into the back of the frame so can easily be changed if needed.
Tempered Glass Mounts are ideal for wall display, plus the smaller sizes can also be used free-standing via an integral stand
Estimated Image Size (if not cropped) is 15.2cm x 20.3cm (6" x 8")
Estimated Product Size is 17.7cm x 22.8cm (7" x 9")
These are individually made so all sizes are approximate
Artwork printed orientated as per the preview above, with portrait (vertical) orientation to match the source image.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate topography of South America, offering a glimpse into its highlands and lowlands. The continent's diverse landscapes are beautifully depicted, with ridges and flat areas highlighting the contrasting elevations. In addition to South America, this map also includes North America and the Caribbean in the top left corner, as well as Antarctica in the bottom right corner. The vastness of our planet's oceans is evident through the presence of both the Atlantic Ocean on the right side and Pacific Ocean on the left. To create this detailed representation, scientists utilized a combination of aerial and satellite imagery along with radar and sonar mapping techniques. Specifically, data was collected by NOas POES satellites orbiting above Earth. This comprehensive approach allowed for accurate measurements not only of land formations but also seabed depths ranging from shallow continental shelves (depicted in light blue) to deep ocean basins (shown in dark blue). The resulting image serves as a valuable resource for understanding physical geography and oceanography within this region. It provides crucial insights into various aspects such as bathymetry (the study of underwater depth), altimetry (measuring altitude), continental shelf boundaries, mountain ranges, plains, and more. With its wealth of information about South America's terrain and surrounding areas, this print offers an intriguing perspective on our planet's natural wonders.
