Eurasia, topographic map
Eurasia, topographic map. This map is centred on Russia, with Europe at centre left and East Asia at right. The North Pole (upper left), with Greenland shown in white, and Africa (lower left) are also seen. The seabed depth varies from shallow (light blue) on the continental shelves, to deep ocean basins (dark blue). Highlands and lowlands of the continents are shown as ridges and flat areas. Topographic and bathymetric data is usually gathered by using aerial and satellite imagery combined with radar and sonar mapping

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a detailed topographic map of Eurasia, with Russia at its center. The vastness of this continent is beautifully depicted, as Europe occupies the left side while East Asia stretches out on the right. This comprehensive map also includes other significant regions such as Africa and Greenland. The varying depths of the seabed are represented by shades of blue, ranging from light hues near the continental shelves to darker tones in deep ocean basins. To gather this valuable data, a combination of aerial and satellite imagery, along with radar and sonar mapping techniques were employed. The contours on the map reveal both highlands and lowlands across different continents, creating an intricate network of ridges and flat areas. As we explore this visual representation, it becomes evident that our planet's geography is truly diverse and awe-inspiring. With its circular shape resembling a globe, this print serves as a reminder that Earth is an interconnected sphere where landmasses seamlessly blend into marine environments. It highlights not only the physical features but also emphasizes how crucial it is to understand our world's topography for scientific research purposes. This remarkable image has been captured by Science Photo Library—an expert in providing exceptional visuals related to various scientific fields—making it an invaluable addition for anyone interested in geography or oceanography.
