How to read this map
The Oder River is about 854 km (531 mi) long and drains a basin of about 125,000 km² (48,300 sq mi). Its average discharge is about 480 m³/s (17,000 cu ft/s). It flows into the Baltic Sea. It flows through or along Poland, the Czech Republic and Germany. Tributaries include Psina, Osobłoga, Oława, Kaczawa, Bóbr, Lusatian Nysa, Welse and Warta.
The highlighted blue line is the course of the Oder River as mapped by Natural Earth. Towns and cities on the map include Berlin, Katowice, Vienna, Prague, Łódź, Kraków, Gdańsk and Bytom. Labeled countries: Poland and Czech Republic.
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 course of the Oder River come from Natural Earth, and the figures on this page from Wikidata. Natural Earth draws features at a small scale, so the line is a guide to where the Oder River is, not a surveyed boundary.
