ITMB recently published a detailed map of the northern half of Norway; now we are pleased to complete our coverage with a lovely, detailed rendition of southern and central Norway.
Norway, being such a long country, suffers from an inability to be placed on a map sheet comfortably, so separating it into two double-sided maps provides the cartographer with the opportunity to portray the country at a much better scale than is possible with a map of the entire country.
This map starts in Narvik and travels south through Bodo to south of Trondheim on Side 1, showing all the roads and emphasizing the excellent rail connections. A little portion of neighbouring Sweden is shown as well. Side 2 concentrates on the southerly ‘bulge’ of Norway south to the country’s border with Sweden and west to the North Atlantic.
A large inset map of Oslo, the capital, is included, as well as a list of Top attractions. Again, both road and rail connections are shown. We try to show tunnels as well, of which there are many. Naturally, touristic sites are included, as well as a selection of camping sites. Longer distance hiking trails/cross-country ski routes are also included.
The famous coastal routes of Norwegian ferries is also included, which is an excellent way to view the coastline between Stavanger and Bergen.
Gloss Laminate
Gloss laminate makes colours look more vibrant and stand out more, but is quite shiny (reflective). If you’re planning on using a marker of any sort, this is a better choice because it’s easier to clean. Your print will be fully encapsulated (so laminated on both sides) in durable 80 micron laminate and will last you a lot longer than plain paper.
Matte Laminate
Matte laminate has a smooth, non-reflective, very classy looking surface. I wouldn’t say it dulls colours, but it doesn’t make them ‘pop’ (I hate that I just used that word) in the way that gloss does. Matte can be drawn on with pencil (and erased), but is harder to clean if you use markers. Your print will be fully encapsulated (so laminated on both sides) in durable 80 micron laminate and will last you a lot longer than plain paper.
Canvas
Everything looks better on canvas! Something about the texture really makes prints look wonderful. It is quite expensive though. We use a very high quality 340gsm artistic matte canvas. Your canvas print will come rolled with a roughly 50mm white border to allow you to have it stretched or mounted however you wish.
