Warcraft cartographer
Sturmbart the insane
has released part four of his ongoing Atlas project, updating the map of Pandaria as part of his online interactive
Azeroth Atlas
project.
The map of Pandaria is enhanced with the same additional details shown in the
Eastern Kingdoms, Kalimdor
, and
Northrend
map updates, showing additional natural and artificial features such as cities, swamps, strongholds, lakes, ruins, rivers, roads, and zeppelin routes.

Cartography
is a time honored tradition spanning thousands of years, with the oldest surviving real world maps dating back to the 9th century BCE. There are many varied types of maps in use today, from geologic, nautical, weather, and those which don't show physical features, such as political, cultural, and even electronic maps. What Sturmbart has made would be categorized as a
physical map
(or sometimes general-purpose), showing a broad understanding of man-made locations, while using color to convey natural features such as mountains and lakes, without the contour lines dictating precise elevation found in
topographic maps
. This makes it generally useful for providing a variety of information without focusing on any one thing in particular.
The Azeroth Atlas Interactive Map
In case you missed it last time, these map updates are also part of a bigger project, the
Azeroth Atlas
. Created in partnership with
Esdreika
, this online interactive map of the game world contains a number of tools allowing users to zoom in, set markers, toggle various features, and even draw on the map - great for anyone looking to use this as a resource for their own projects. With only the Broken Isles, Kul Tiras, and Zandalar left uncompleted, the Atlas can be toggled between the full world map or specific continents, enabling all the extra detail seen in the static map updates.
