How to read this map

The Ōreti River is about 170 km (106 mi) long. It flows into the Foveaux Strait.

The highlighted blue line is the course of the Ōreti River as mapped by Natural Earth. Towns and cities on the map include Invercargill, Queenstown, Gore and Wanaka.

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 course of the Ōreti 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 Ōreti River is, not a surveyed boundary.
