How to read this map

The blue outline marks Nam Ngum Dam as mapped by Natural Earth. Towns and cities on the map include Vientiane, Nong Khai, Phonsavan, Loei and Sainyabuli. Labeled countries: Laos.

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 Nam Ngum Dam 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 Nam Ngum Dam is, not a surveyed boundary.
