Buckminster Fuller Dymaxion Airocean World Wall Map is a facsimile of the 1954 Raleigh edition which presents the globe split into 20 interlocking equilateral triangles with their sides equal to 63°26’ or, as the publishers describe it, “3,806 nautical miles, 8½ jet aircraft hours, 14 conventional aircraft hours, or 7 ship days”.

The map is centered on North Pole and its scale varies approximately from 1:47,500,000 to 1:57,000,000. Both landmasses and oceans are coloured to show mean low annual temperature, with the colour chart annotated both in Centigrade and Fahrenheit.
