The physical relief map shows through its single colour shading (blue,green,brown) the contours of, not only the surface of the earth but also the contours of the ocean bed.
By conventional maps it is mistakenly assumed that green represents woodslands, fertile areas and arable land.
Our relief maps expels this mistake as every viewer realises his error immediately because of the relief surface structure.
Plains and towering mountains are clearly visible. Optimum learning success through seeing and touching.
We can demonstrate with a few examples, that our maps' relief is excellently prepared:
Due to the chain formation on land one can derive and infer to the plate tectonics of the earth.
In Asia it is clear to see that the Indian plate moves beneath the Himalayan Mountains.
Due to the different surfaces of the earth the climate and the ocean currents are influenced. The best example is North America, it shows very clearly why tornados appear in the southern states of America. The funnel formation of the plains between the Rocky Mountains and the Appalachian Mountains shows that warm- and cold front mass collide resulting in turbulences.
