Akkajaure Map

How to read this map
Its surface lies about 439 m (1,440 ft) above sea level. Inflows include Lule River. It drains through the Lule River.
The blue outline marks Akkajaure as mapped by Natural Earth. Towns and cities on the map include Narvik and Harstad.
Greens show lower elevations; tan and brown show higher land, with pale tones toward the highest terrain. Shadows emphasize the slopes, and vertical relief is exaggerated so landforms are easier to read. Dashed lines show country borders, and fine dashed lines show state or province borders.
The relief uses Terrain Tiles (SRTM, GMTED2010 and ETOPO1 elevation data). Rivers, lakes, borders and the outline of Akkajaure come from Natural Earth, and the figures on this page from Wikidata. Natural Earth draws features at a small scale, so the outline is a guide to where Akkajaure is, not a surveyed boundary.
