This is a true 3D raised relief map – a superior visual reference.

3D Raised Relief Map of The World

Every major mountain system on the planet on one surface, at true relative height. The Himalaya against the Andes against the Alps is a comparison a flat world map cannot make.

Each map is printed on 2mm thick high-grade rigid vinyl, then one of our technical artists heat-treats and vacuum-forms it over our custom World mold. This is a companion map to our United States Ranger Raised Relief Map, so the two hang together as a set.

These fully three-dimensional vacuum-formed vinyl maps use color and shading alongside physical relief to represent elevation changes, giving a clearer understanding of terrain and landforms than any flat projection.

  • The Himalaya and the Tibetan Plateau standing as the highest ground on the map
  • The Andes running the length of South America, with the Amazon basin flat beside them
  • The Rockies and the western cordillera down through North America
  • The Alps, the Caucasus and the Atlas ranges around the Mediterranean
  • The Great Rift Valley cutting north to south through East Africa
  • Sahara, Gobi and the Australian interior reading as open low ground

Used in classrooms, university departments, briefing rooms and offices as a teaching surface. Relative scale lands faster from a molded map than from any projection printed flat.

I love the map of the world and it is up on my wall now. It was very easy to order and I received it very quickly. Great service on your part. I would rate it a 4 out of 5. The reason I don't rate it a 5 is because I have a 3d map of Europe that I got from a German company that is of super high quality. I imagine it's easier to do details on a smaller 3d map of Europe than it is to do a 3d map of the world small enough to ship and put up on my wall. Thank you. Your company is awesome!

WOW!!! I just received the World Map AND, thanks to Hunter in shipping, the maps of NC, Colorado, AND California!!! I am SO blown away by the beauty and intricate details of the maps that I am, well, speechless! I cannot wait for Bryan to "visualize" these maps with his fingertips! I believe this may be the best gift he has ever received! Please tell Hunter that I am forever grateful for his incredible thoughtfulness and caring to include the additional maps. His handwritten note was the icing on the cake! I am moved to tears by his act of kindness. This tells me volumes about your company and the culture/environment you have there. You should be proud of who and what you are as a company and people! This is absolutely amazing and so are you! I will sing your praises to as many people as I can. Is there a best way I can do this for you? If so, please let me know!
Thank you, again, and Blessings to you!

Dealing with your company was a delight - especially the little bits of humor! Which was a pleasant surprise when dealing with a company. Received my map quickly and was kept informed during the process.
Would order from you again and will certainly refer you to others.
Keep up your awesome work!

My map arrived today in good order. It was wrapped perfectly so that it would arrive in perfect condition.I will be using it to show where the tectonic plates are on the Earth during presentations for my rock & mineral club, the Thames Valley Rockhounds of Eastern Connecticut. Thanks again for doing a great job.

Unframed

Maps are printed on 15-mil vinyl and heat-formed over a mold to create the 3D relief effect. All Raised Relief maps ship flat in protective boxes to preserve the 3D details. Please note that these maps are not standard frame sizes, so our custom framing option is often more cost-effective than local framing.

High-quality raised relief finishing options for detailed map presentation and tactile exploration. Perfect for educational, decorative, or professional cartography displays.

Mounted

Maps are printed on 15-mil vinyl and heat-formed over a mold to create the 3D relief effect. Maps are then affixed with adhesive onto 1/4″-thick foam core. Mounting offers additional protection by keeping the map flat and rigid. All Raised Relief maps ship flat in protective boxes to preserve the 3D details. Please note that these maps are not standard frame sizes, so our custom framing option is often more cost-effective than local framing.

Framed

Maps are printed on 15-mil vinyl and heat-formed over a mold to create the 3D relief effect. We then mount the map into recycled wood molding with pre-installed hanging hardware, so it arrives ready to hang. Glass is not included, allowing you to touch and feel the relief. Please avoid direct sunlight, as extreme heat can cause the dimensional features to flatten over time. Smaller maps are framed with 1.25"-wide molding and larger maps over 36" x 24" are framed with 2"-wide molding.
