How to read this map

The Foxe Peninsula is about 20,000 km² (7,740 sq mi) in area.

The dashed outline marks the Foxe Peninsula as mapped by Natural Earth.

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 the Foxe Peninsula 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 Foxe Peninsula is, not a surveyed boundary.
