Hi, I teach a modern world literature class (c.1750-today) and would really like to be able to make custom maps to help students visualize the locations in the texts they read. Simple (line) political maps where I could place cities or regions, and maybe mark paths travelled (though I could do that with another program or by hand if I needed to, so it's not necessary). Most of the resources I've come across have far more power than I need (which would confuse the students and take a long time to learn) or have too much clutter on it (Google Maps). I really just would like to make a simple bla ..read more

Is there a program that allows you to easily cut the world and stretch it to the way you desire or does anybody have Skillet doing this that wants to help me. We can hyphenate our names for the official name of it. I have a moniker specifically for the world shape I would want to name the "creator name(s)" "map name" prpjection. Please let me know if you have any ideas for how to help submitted by /u/Aeon1508 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

I’m trying to make a map that is roughly 24in x 36in, or other large format. How do I do that? The only reason I’m trying to do this is because I have access to a wide format printer as a student at no cost to me, so I’m looking to take advantage of it and play around with making my own maps. I’ve used CalTopo to make smaller maps and maps up to 11x17 but that’s the extent of map-making I’ve done. Any help would be greatly appreciated! submitted by /u/FinalSatisfaction626 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Hi! Does anyone has the Barrington Atlas of the Greek and Roman world? I was searching for the pdf file or the CD-rom to download, it's essential for my PhD research. Thanks submitted by /u/Athanatos_ [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Hi folks! I have a really basic question. I have a use case where I need to print a map file myself at a large size (at least 4' horizontally) and a high DPI (300dpi+). A pre-printed map will not work -- I need to work with the file myself. What I'm looking for is just a really excellent U.S. map design with as much practical detail (roads, towns, terrain) as possible -- think the classic Nat Geo map or Dave Imus' design. I'm happy to pay, but I don't know what the best option is for finding the file in the first place. Y'all have any tips? Thanks! submitted by /u/The_Middleman [visit reddit ..read more
