How to read this map

The highest point of the Cuchilla Grande is Cerro Catedral, 514 m (1,685 ft) above sea level.

The dashed outline marks the Cuchilla Grande as mapped by Natural Earth. Towns and cities on the map include Montevideo, Rivera, Punta del Este, Bagé, Melo, Maldonado and Rivera. Labeled countries: Uruguay.

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 Cuchilla Grande 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 Cuchilla Grande is, not a surveyed boundary.
