Two maps, two versions of each.
The same Georgia terrain as a classroom map and as wall art. All four are free PDFs.
Georgia physical map for the classroom
Elevation in color with shaded relief, plus the surrounding states and water for context. The labeled version marks the capital, major cities and the highest point. The blank version leaves them off so students can label the map themselves.
Georgia relief wall art
Georgia on its own, with strong shaded relief and no labels. The dark version has the most contrast. The light version uses far less ink on a home printer.
The physical geography of Georgia
Georgia steps down from mountains to the sea. The Blue Ridge Mountains in the northeast hold Brasstown Bald, the highest point, and the northwest corner has the long ridges of the Ridge and Valley region. The Piedmont, a belt of rolling red-clay hills, covers the middle of the state. At the Fall Line, which runs through Columbus, Macon and Augusta, the land drops to the Coastal Plain, which makes up more than half the state. The southeast has the Okefenokee Swamp and a coast fringed with sea islands.

Built from real data, not stock images.
Every Georgia physical map on this page was rendered from NASA SRTM 30-meter elevation data, with hydrography from Natural Earth and the shoreline-clipped state outline from the US Census Bureau. Each map is colored over that state’s own elevation range, and the relief shading is exaggerated so gentle terrain still shows.
