Subject: blank/outline map site


For cartographers,
for map librarians needing base maps for creating map indexes, and
for those writing papers for journals, a very useful site:

http://d-maps.com

contains 5944 outline maps of countries and regions, in various versions (blank, with rivers, with towns, with administrative units etc) , each one in 6 graphic formats, vector and raster (GIF, PDF, CDR, SVG, AI, WMF).
