NOTE: The below four images are too large to be thumbnailed by Mediawiki and so will output the full 8MB images for each if displayed on a page.
For the moment, they have been linked to in order to prevent this page from downloading 32MB of images each time it is loaded.

• File:WorldMap-A non-Frame.png – Topographic world map (Americas on the left, Europe and Africa on the center, Asia and Oceania on the right), without frame (7964×3980 pixels, 8MB)
• File:WorldMap-A with Frame.png – Topographic world map (Americas on the left, Europe and Africa on the center, Asia and Oceania on the right), with an additional 11px external frame, graduated at 10° multiples of longitude (7986×4002 pixels, 8MB)
• File:WorldMap-B non-Frame.png – Topographic world map (Europe and Africa on the left, Asia and Oceania on the center, Americas on the right), without frame (7964×3980 pixels, 8MB)
• File:WorldMap-B with Frame.png – Topographic world map (Europe and Africa on the left, Asia and Oceania on the center, Americas on the right), with an additional 11px external frame, graduated at 10° multiples of longitude (7986×4002 pixels, 8MB)

Maps A and B are identical in content and spatial resolution, just offset by a constant longitude. They use a cartographic projection preserving the relative surfaces, but not the angles (except the orthogonal directions of parallels and meridians) and the relative distances (except along the same parallel): the further any shapes are from the equator, the more they are vertically reduced and horizontally enlarged (this transformation is linear only along parallels for longitudes, not along meridians for latitudes or any other direction).

The unframed maps A and B are also splitted into the 8 first images (each one: 1991×1990 pixels, about 1MB) shown as thumbnails on the top right.

Below them, the other topographic map on the bottom right, showing the whole world at once with the same cartographic projection, is more contrasted and more colorful than maps A and B: it is an (unframed) reduced version (2000×1000 pixels, about 4.5MB) of a much larger original image generated from the World Bedrock Digital Elevation Model.
