How to read this map

It extends across Oman and the United Arab Emirates.

The dashed outline marks the Musandam Peninsula as mapped by Natural Earth. Towns and cities on the map include Dubai, Sharjah, Ras al-Khaimah, Fujairah, Jebel Ali and Umm Al Quwain.

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 Musandam 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 Musandam Peninsula is, not a surveyed boundary.
