Here are some blank maps for colour and label in different languages.

IMPORTANT: Only .svg (vector) and .png (raster) images are to be used for unanimated maps.

[edit] SVG format

SVG is a vector graphics format. SVG has advantages over PNG for creating world maps of arbitrary detail or zoom level, certain editing purposes, saving layers, and rescaling text, curves and lines. SVG is preferred: see Wikipedia:WikiProject_Maps.

[edit] National

  • Image:Blank_US_Map.svg — United States, including AK and HI. Each state is its own vector image, meaning coloring states individually is very easy.

[edit] Oceania

  • Image:oceania98.svg - very large SVG including primary level divisions (states/provinces) of Oceania as of 1998.

[edit] South America

  • Image:south_america98.svg - very large SVG including primary level divisions (states/provinces) of South America as of 1998.

[edit] PNG format

PNG is a raster graphics format. PNG has advantages over SVG including smaller filesize (due to less-than-optimal server-side SVG-to-raster conversion), more widely supported and often easier and faster to make simple changes to things such as borders.

[edit] Hemisphere maps

These are azimuthal orthographic projections of the Earth from four sides plus the poles. 726x726 pixels, aliased. XCFs have separate layers for water, land, coastlines, political borders, political borders over water (not shown in PNGs), and latitude & longitude gridlines (not shown in PNGs).

[edit] Libre Map Project boundary maps

Libre Map Project boundary maps - Includes United States boundary maps for all 50 states and territories including state, county, and county subdivision maps in SVG format. All maps released under the BY-SA Creative Commons license.

[edit] Blank maps derived from OMC

This is a web interface, © 1996 - 2004 Martin Weinelt, generating maps using GMT (The Generic Mapping Tools), from public domain vector data. The resulting maps should be in the public domain.

These maps show elevation and main rivers, but no modern boundaries. They are intended for use in archaeological/historical contexts (Kurgan, Ancient Orient, Neolithic Europe, etc.)
