1165 x 915mm | Ideal for Classrooms, Study Spaces & Global Awareness
Winkel Tripel Projection – Designed for Years 4–12
Bring geography to life with this political world wall map by National Geographic, specially designed for students from Years 4 through 12. Unlike conventional world maps that distort landmasses, this map uses the Winkel Tripel projection — considered the most accurate for classroom use — offering a realistic visual balance of area, shape, and distance.
Students and educators alike will benefit from a more faithful two-dimensional representation of the globe, where Greenland is no longer larger than South America and where continents appear in their proper proportion.
