United States Advanced Physical Pull Down Map
Color-by-state maps do not help students understand why the Great Plains flatten out east of the Rockies. This Map Shop offering from BrightWay Educational drops political fills entirely and uses a graduated elevation ramp with shaded relief, so terrain, drainage, and landform boundaries read at a glance from the back row of a high school or college classroom. It mounts on a spring roller with a backboard, and the same cartography is available as a standard wall map.
- Albers Equal Area projection for accurate proportions across the lower 48, with separate insets for Alaska, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico
- Georeference grid and degree lines to teach latitude, longitude, and coordinate reading
- Ocean surface currents and bathymetric relief alongside mountain ranges, rivers, lakes, and islands
- National capitals, major and secondary cities, and disputed areas labeled
- Side panels covering population density, geology and bedrock type and age with tectonic plates and volcanoes, plus Koppen climate zones
Built for grades 9 and up and updated regularly, this map is used by earth science teachers, geography instructors, and home school parents as the room’s primary reference point.
