Geological Map of South America (c.1950)
Vintage Geological Map of South America first published in 1950. We've restored this beautiful vintage map and added shaded relief for a modern look.
Shaded Relief modelled from SRTM data for a 3D-like Visual Perspective.
This is a flat 2D print with very realistic shading that appears as though it is 3D. Note that the main theme to our relief maps is the hillshading affect and in certain shaded areas on the map the process can make some of the original text illegible. Additionally, since we offer prints in sizes smaller than the original scale, this can make some text on the map illegible. That being said, the maps are stunning and intended for visual pleasure and not for geographic use.

A gorgeous geological map on high quality paper, now framed and on my wall.
Ok but not as great as the advert picture
What a beautiful map. I love it for its geographical and historical perspective. A reminder that we are in a ever-changing environment.
Really nice - I am going to add some small frames with pictures around this map on the wall pointing each area we have visited :) really good quality and it does look like 3D
It's beautiful. Better than I imagined. There may be more delightful ways to illustrate this county but I've yet to find then!
The map was fantastic - great quality print and paper and despite some challenges with the shipping courier Visual Geomatics handled things with so much care
Brilliantly detailed coloured map on quality paper. Thank you
Love it. As expected. Hong Kong 3D image. Please don’t expect an actual 3D product—this is a 2D image that illustrates 3D contour. That’s probably assumed by most people but it seems that a few people are confused by that.
My husband absolutely loves this hanging in his office! It looks so nice and high quality.
