Spilhaus Projection World Wall Map. Did you know that the oceans make up 71 percent of the worlds surface? Map Town has unveiled another new and creative way to map the world. The Spilhaus map projection was developed in 1942 by Dr. Athelstan Spilhaus. Centered on Antarctica, the worlds oceans come together to form a single, contiguous uninterrupted body of water. This projection helps us visualize that our oceans are much more connected that we think. This map makes for a good planning map for those who want to sail the world, move cargo from port to port and to understand the scientific relationships that coexist between these massive bodies of water.
This map is designed for all ages, and will get the conversation started. It is an excellent educational reference tool that shows the World in a new style. It's easily to read without requiring a magnifying glass, perfect for all eyes young and old.
