How to read this map
The Sea of Azov covers about 37,600 km² (14,500 sq mi) and reaches a maximum depth of about 15 m (48 ft). Countries with a coast on the Sea of Azov: Russia and Ukraine.
The blue outline marks the Sea of Azov as mapped by Natural Earth. Towns and cities on the map include Rostov-on-Don, Donetsk, Zaporizhzhia, Kryvyi Rih, Krasnodar, Mariupol, Sevastopol and Simferopol.
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 Sea of Azov 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 Sea of Azov is, not a surveyed boundary.
