Africa Northwest ITMB

North-Western Africa at 1:3,800,000 on a double-sided indexed map from ITMB altitude colouring to show its topography and highlighting of numerous national parks and other protected areas. Coverage extends to the eastern border of Libya, and south to Yaounde and Bangui, so includes most of Chad, Central African Republic and Cameroon. The map shows the region’s road network, including selected desert tracks, with distances marked on main routes; a symbol for border crossings is included in the legend but the crossing points are not on the map itself. Railway lines are included, also international and selected smaller airports. Topography is shown by altitude colouring in broad bands, with relatively few names of mountain ranges, etc, given the map’s scale. Numerous oasis are marked – whether named varies from country to country. Also highlighted are numerous national parks and protected areas, shown mostly without their names. Latitude and longitude lines are drawn at 5º intervals. Each side has a separate index. To see other titles in this series please click on the series link.
