Learn more about the map styles
Each map type offers different information and each map style is designed for a different purpose. Read about the styles and map projection used in the above map (Physical Map of Kuala Lumpur).
Physical map
Physical map illustrates the mountains, lowlands, oceans, lakes and rivers and other physical landscape features of Kuala Lumpur. Differences in land elevations relative to the sea level are represented by color.
Green color represents lower elevations, orange or brown indicate higher elevations, shades of grey are used for the highest mountain ranges in the world. Underwater topography is represented by blues. Darker blues are used for the deepest water, lighter shades of blue represent shallower water such as the continental shelf.
Geographic map projection
A map projection is a way how to transform points on a Earth to points on a map. This map of Kuala Lumpur uses Plate Carree projection. The Plate Carree projection is a simple cylindrical projection originated in the ancient times. It has straight and equally spaced meridians and parallels that meet at right angles.
All projections from a sphere to a plane are distorted. The drawback of the Plate Carree projection is that it doesn't make an attempt to compensate for these distortions. For the general view of Kuala Lumpur, this is not a significant problem. The detailed maps use the Mercator projection which preserves the shape of small areas better.
