How to read this map

The Branco River is about 584 km (363 mi) long and drains a basin of about 195,000 km² (75,300 sq mi). It flows into Rio Negro. Tributaries include Takutu River, Uraricoera River, Ajarani River, Anauá River, Catrimani River, Cauamé River, Mucajaí River and Xeriuini River.

The highlighted blue line is the course of the Branco River as mapped by Natural Earth. Towns and cities on the map include Boa Vista, Manacapuru and Tefé. Labeled countries: Guyana.

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 Branco 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 Branco River is, not a surveyed boundary.
