National Geographic Maps of the United States of America – Setting the highest standard for cartographic excellence
Since publishing its first map of the United States of America in 1923, National Geographic has been a global leader in the art and science of mapmaking. National Geographic’s unique cartographic style is defined by beautiful color palettes, proprietary typefaces, hand-drawn shaded relief, and carefully researched content. The attention to detail and accuracy is what really sets National Geographic apart from other mapmakers. Each map has been carefully compiled based upon the latest data sources and independent verification of road networks, place-names, and National Park boundaries. When this level of research is combined with great design, the result is the best line of U.S. maps currently available.

Four distinctive styles

|---|---|---|---|
ClassicThe Classic style is the traditional National Geographic design that has been featured in many of the maps produced as supplements in the National Geographic Magazine over the years. Highlights include blue oceans with bathymetric contour steps, brightly-colored tint bands along country and state borders, and hand-drawn shaded relief. This style contains the highest level of detail. This map is presented in the Lambert Conformal Conic projection, which minimizes distortion in midlatitudes with east-west orientation. |
ExecutiveThe Executive style is a perfect match for home and office décor as it pairs nicely with wood and leather furnishings. Featuring an antique, earth-tone color palette combined with up-to-date cartography, this has become National Geographic’s bestselling U.S. Map design. The subdued beige of the oceans combines nicely with the soft-colored tint bands along country and state borders. This style contains the highest level of detail. This map is presented in the Lambert Conformal Conic projection, which minimizes distortion in midlatitudes with east-west orientation. |
DecoratorThe Decorator style is the brightest of the National Geographic U.S. Map designs and is perfect for kids’ bedrooms, classrooms, and those who want a pop of color on the wall. Featuring solid colors filling each state, pale blue oceans, and a black border around the whole image, this U.S. Map is beautiful and easy-to-read. This style contains the second highest level of detail. This map is presented in the Lambert Conformal Conic projection, which minimizes distortion in midlatitudes with east-west orientation. |
ExplorerThe Explorer style is the most affordable option in the National Geographic U.S. Map product family. It is very similar to the Decorator style, featuring the brightest color palette of the U.S. Map designs. The Explorer is perfect for kids’ bedrooms and classrooms. Featuring solid colors filling each state, pale blue oceans, and a decorative grid-style border around the whole image, this U.S. Map is beautiful and easy-to-read. This style contains the second highest level of detail. This map is presented in the Lambert Conformal Conic projection, which minimizes distortion in midlatitudes with east-west orientation. |

A detailed and accurate map
This map is very nice. I like the paper it's printed on and it's very detailed. I use it with push pins to record the places I have been and it's large enough to read. I would prefer they leave off the white border and enlarge the map itself. Overall I am very happy with it.
