Frameable topo/geo map of France?

February 18, 2013 8:45 AM

I want to purchase a frameable map of France, done in a similar manner to this one of Oregon. My Google powers are letting me down, even in French. All I'm able to find so far are 3D, molded-plastic relief maps, and then regional, folding topo maps. Any clues welcome.

I think the IGN's "Physical Features of France" wall map is probably the one you want (or at least is the only one I've been able to find), but I'm having a hard time locating it on the IGN site; they sell maps but I can't find that one, or get back to the page where I found the maps for sale in the first place.

Search terms that are helping: "wall maps" (that solves the folded problem), and "physical" or "physique" instead of topographic.

I'll keep poking, but maybe these links and terms can help you or others.

Something like this?

The "France Physical Map (France Physique)" halfway down this page may be what you're looking for. The relief map has a sample image and doesn't look like it has the detail your Oregon map has, but the physical map says that it "has more physical features and less road/cultural information". It unfortunately doesn't have a sample image.

OK, here it is without the place names, but I think they have one with place names, too, and that's the one I can't find for sale.

Huh--I had not thought to scroll down on the Omnimap page. Several of those look (or sound) promising. Thanks very much for the assist, all!
