This latest edition comes out at a time when the largest country in Africa needs a good map the most. Sudan is not a country with an improving infrastructure, nor is it one of the safest countries for travellers. However, its position in Africa makes it pivotal to the politics and ethnicity of much of northeastern Africa, and its importance can be gauged by the fact that this ITMB title is already into its third edition.
It is one of the most difficult countries in the world to map, simply because so much of it is difficult to enter. ITMB have dedicated this map to those brave souls who continue to provide food and medical support for all the peoples of Sudan - the humanitarians, whose contributions have made this map possible.
National parks, wildlife reserves and other protected areas are highlighted and symbols mark archaeological sites, mosques and churches, campsites and other selected accommodation. The map is indexed and also includes a small street plan of central Khartoum indicating various facilities and places of interest.

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.
