The colors from the original map images were edited for greater visual clarity.

Note:

This map is a combination of two maps: (1) a Global Land One-km Base Elevation (GLOBE) map with topographic color and shaded elevation relief with bathymetry from Smith and Sandwell; 
and (2) a map of stable lights (cities, villages, gas flares, etc.) from the Defense Meteorological Satellite Program.
Please note that the colors were edited for greater visual clarity.
