Southern India at 1:1, 400, 000 approx. in a series of Adventure maps from the National Geographic Society with cartography provided by Reise Know-How.

Coverage extends across the western coast to Vadodra (Baroda), along the eastern coast to beyond Kakinada (Cocanada) & inland well north of Nagpur. Cartographic information provided by Reise Know-How has been adjusted to follow the house style of the NGS Adventure series with greater emphasis on the country’s topography. Altitude colouring in broader bands has been replaced here by contours at 500m intervals plus relief shading. National parks & other protected areas are highlighted. Road network
