How to read this map
The Svir River is about 224 km (139 mi) long and drains a basin of about 84,400 km² (32,600 sq mi). Its average discharge is about 790 m³/s (27,900 cu ft/s). It rises at Lake Onega and flows into Lake Ladoga. Tributaries include Oyat, Pasha, Vazhinka, Kanomka, Kislaya Oyat, Kuzra, Mandroga and Meldusa.
The highlighted blue line is the course of the Svir River as mapped by Natural Earth. Towns and cities on the map include Saint Petersburg, Kolpino, Gatchina and Tikhvin.
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 Svir 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 Svir River is, not a surveyed boundary.
