Equal Earth Map

A world map for everyone

The Equal Earth Wall Map is for schools, organisations, or anyone who needs a map showing countries and continents at their true sizes relative to each other. Africa appears 14 times larger than Greenland, as it actually is.

Other features include:

• 2,600+ map labels provide geographic context, without overwhelming you with too much information
• Professional design with pleasing colours, readable type, and clear visual hierarchies – this is a map that you will want to look at
• Size: 1090 x 610 mm

Equal Earth projection

The Equal Earth map projection is a new equal-area pseudocylindrical projection for world maps jointly developed by Bojan Šavrič (Esri), Tom Patterson (US National Park Service), and Bernhard Jenny (Monash University). It was created to provide a visually pleasing alternative to the Gall-Peters projection, which some schools and socially concerned groups have adopted out of concern for fairness. Their priority is to show developing countries in the tropics and developed countries in the north with correctly proportioned sizes.

In addition to being rigorously equal-area throughout, other Equal Earth projection features include:

• Curved sides of the projection suggesting the spherical form of Earth
• Straight parallels that make it easier to compare how far north or south places are from the equator
