Sudan

£9.50

Indexed, waterproof and tear-resistant road map of Sudan with topographic and tourist information, published by Reise Know-How as part of their highly acclaimed World Mapping Project. The map is double-sided to provide the best balance between a good scale and a convenient size sheet.
Clear topographic base has altitude colouring with contours, spot heights, mountain passes and names of mountain ranges. Salt pans, swamps, seasonal rivers and lakes, oases, wells and hot springs are indicated. Road network includes seasonal local tracks, gives driving distances on main roads, and shows locations of fuel supplies and border crossings. Railway lines, local airfields and oil pipelines are also marked. Internal administrative boundaries are shown with names of the provinces. Within the three Darfur provinces the map indicates areas where destruction of local villages has been independently verified.

National parks and protected areas are marked and symbols highlight various places of interest, including UNESCO world heritage sites, archaeological remains, mosques, medical facilities, etc. Campsites and locations with hotel accommodations are indicated. The map has a grid with latitude and longitude at intervals of 1º, and an index of localities with a separate list of national parks and reverse. Map legend includes English.

”World Mapping Project” is an extensive series of maps at varying scales, aiming to provide coverage of countries and regions worldwide using clear, well presented cartography with both topographic and tourist information. Some titles in this series have been published in Britain by Rough Guides with the same original cartography and are listed on our website only under that imprint. However, if required, the original Reise Know-How editions can be ordered on request - please contact us by e-mail.

Sample of cartography:
Some elements of the cartography e.g. minor roads and contours are printed relatively faintly compared with other information such as major roads. Although clearly legible on the map, the lower contrast of these details has made them less obvious on the reproduction of the cartography presented here.
