The artwork on our maps is designed to bring new light to the beautiful terrain it features. Our elevation maps incorporate hand-shaded relief and Digital Elevation Data with historical map data, creating a unique 3D effect on a flat surface, and our hydrological maps depict every river and stream in crisp detail. The meticulous craftsmanship and design we bring to our Georgia maps creates heirloom quality artwork we’re proud of.

What are the different types of maps of Georgia available on Muir Way?
Our Georgia maps are available in several different styles, including:
Georgia relief maps - Our relief maps of Georgia bring historical map landscapes together with modern technology to show Georgia’s geography in a new way. Using Digital Elevation Data and hand-shaded relief, we custom enhance vintage maps to create a 3D effect on a 2D surface. See Georgia’s variegated terrain in vibrant colors on our 1939 Georgia relief map, or take a closer look at Georgia’s counties outlined on our 1970 Georgia relief map.
Georgia elevation maps - Our state of Georgia elevation map uses Digital Elevation Data from the USGS and hand-shaded relief just like our relief maps to create a high-contrast 3-dimensional effect in stunning black and white.
Georgia hydrological maps - Our hydrological maps showcase the intricate network of waterways, from sprawling lakes to narrow tributaries that flow into larger rivers. Trace Georgia’s waterways on our Georgia hydrological map and you’ll see every all bodies of water greater than 0.2 mi in diameter. What makes our hydrological maps unique? We apply a method called the Strahler Stream Order to show the hierarchy of streams as they flow from their source, with rivers shown thicker as they acquire the flow of tributaries. Map available in black, blue, or green. Want to see the ‘big picture’?

Our vintage Georgia maps are also custom printed using archival materials.

With 14 major river basins and several lakes, Georgia’s waterways not only add to its natural beauty but provide fertile ground for the state’s major crops of peanuts, pecans, vidalia onions, and of course, peaches. Our hydrological map of Georgia lets these interconnected waterways shine, from mountain streams to basins emptying into the Gulf of Mexico.
What are the regions in Georgia?
Georgia has six main geographical regions:
- Appalachian Plateau - Nestled in the northwestern corner of the state, the Appalachian Plateau’s narrow valleys and ridges sit up to 2,000 feet above sea level.
- Ridge and Valley - Also located in Georgia’s northwestern corner, the Ridge and Valley region is marked by sprawling valleys and sandstone ridges.
- Blue Ridge - This mountain range reaches peaks of 5,000 feet and is situated in Georgia’s northeastern corner. In addition to its forested peaks, this area of Georgia is also home to rivers that provide hydroelectric power.
- Piedmont - This region cuts across the center of Georgia and features a hilly landscape with beautiful waterfalls at the Fall Line.
- Atlantic and East Gulf Coastal Plains - Both the Atlantic and East Gulf Coastal Plains are marked by a flat landscape and portions of the Okefenokee Swamp. Rivers in the Atlantic Coastal Plain flow to the Atlantic Ocean, and rivers in the East Gulf Coastal Plain flow to the Gulf of Mexico.
