How to read this map

Its surface lies about 53 m (174 ft) above sea level. Inflows include Volga, Aqtay, Kama, Kuvshinka, Sulitsa, Belaya Volozhka, Sekerka and Kinerka. It drains through Volga.

The blue outline marks the Kuybyshev Reservoir as mapped by Natural Earth. Towns and cities on the map include Samara, Kazan, Tolyatti, Ulyanovsk, Izhevsk, Naberezhnye Chelny, Cheboksary and Yoshkar-Ola.

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 Kuybyshev Reservoir 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 Kuybyshev Reservoir is, not a surveyed boundary.
