How to read this map

The dashed outline marks the Chilean Central Valley as mapped by Natural Earth. Towns and cities on the map include Santiago, Concepción, Valparaíso, Talcahuano, Temuco, San Bernardo, Neuquén and Rancagua. Labeled countries: Chile.

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 outline of the Chilean Central Valley 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 the Chilean Central Valley is, not a surveyed boundary.
