How to read this map
The Araguaia River is about 1,910 km (1,190 mi) long and drains a basin of about 370,000 km² (143,000 sq mi). Its average discharge is about 6,170 m³/s (218,000 cu ft/s). It flows into the Tocantins River. Tributaries include Rio das Mortes, Vermelho River, Crixás Açu River, Javaés River, Rio das Mortes, Das Garças River and Tapirapé River.
The highlighted blue line is the course of the Araguaia River as mapped by Natural Earth. Towns and cities on the map include Brasília, Goiânia, Cuiabá, Campo Grande, Uberlândia, Ribeirão Preto, São José do Rio Preto and Anápolis. Labeled countries: Brazil.
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.
The relief uses Terrain Tiles (SRTM, GMTED2010 and ETOPO1 elevation data). Rivers, lakes, borders and the course of the Araguaia River come from Natural Earth, and the figures on this page from Wikidata. Natural Earth draws features at a small scale, so the line is a guide to where the Araguaia River is, not a surveyed boundary.
