This brilliant map art displays the state of Montana in a colorful topographical style unlike anything you've ever seen: a combination of a Montana reference map, Montana physical map, and an artistic Montana poster. The spectacular topographical image of the map was created by using digital elevation data to produce a three dimensional model of Montana's terrain. Color was then applied to the landscape according to elevation. The unique result is a stunning colorful image of Montana that is completely accurate and extremely detailed - even the smallest hills and valleys are able to be seen. One of the more mountainous states in the United States, it's no surprise this topographical style really shows of the beauty of the Montana landscape. The variation between the rugged Rocky Mountains in the western portions of the state and the vast plains in the east is very prominent. Specific Montana mountain ranges within the Rockies, such as Lewis Range, Bitterroot Mountains, Cabinet Mountains, Little Belt and Big Belt Mountains, Crazy Mountains, and Absaroka Range are all visible in this map. The map, while mostly a visual physical map, also includes all major towns and cities of Montana - adding usefulness to the map without cluttering it or detracting from Montana's physical beauty. It doesn't matter if you're looking for a piece of map art or a Montana reference map, this Montana map poster fits the bill perfectly and will look sensational on your wall. This same map style is also offered for other states and countries. "This map includes the following features:
