Africa, topographic map
Africa, topographic map. Highlands and lowlands of the continents are shown as ridges and flat areas. Southern Europe and the Middle East are also seen at top and upper right respectively. 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

31"x27" (79x69cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 24x20 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 31x27 inches (787x685mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the breathtaking topography of Africa, along with glimpses of Southern Europe and the Middle East. The intricate details reveal a fascinating blend of highlands and lowlands, depicted as ridges and flat areas respectively. The varying shades of blue on the seabed illustrate the depth variations from shallow continental shelves to deep ocean basins. To create this comprehensive map, cutting-edge technology was employed. Aerial and satellite imagery combined with radar and sonar mapping techniques were utilized to gather topographic and bathymetric data. Notably, NOas POES satellites played a crucial role in capturing this remarkable view. The image not only highlights Africa's diverse landscape but also underscores its connection to neighboring regions like Southern Europe and the Middle East. It serves as a testament to our ever-expanding knowledge about Earth's physical geography. As we delve into this visual masterpiece, we are reminded of the immense beauty that lies within our planet's oceans, mountains, plains, and continents. This photograph is a stunning representation of how science merges artistry with meticulous research to provide us with invaluable insights into our world's natural wonders.
