USA Lower 48 (Contiguous) States Topographic Relief Map with Rivers and Coastal Waters - Logarithmic Scale

USA Lower 48 (Contiguous) States color map with borders!

This is the logarithmic scale version of the USA lower 48 state map. The special logarithm scale enhances detail at lower elevations and minimizes bumpiness at high elevations. You may be interested in my linear scale version that shows elevation points in accurate scale to each other.

The map has is at 1:20000000 horizontal scale and made to fit within the 256x256 buildplate. Vertical exaggeration ranges from 27000-45x. Scaling is greater at lower elevation and lower at higher elevation. 45x is at ~5000m elevation.
