Kansas Physical Map

Kansas is famously flat — but its tilt from west (high plains, ~4,000 ft) to east (Mississippi lowlands) is over 3,000 feet.

Rendered from SRTM 30m elevation data + Natural Earth rivers/lakes + US Census state boundary. Three variants below — pick the one that fits your lesson, all free.

Highest Point

Mt. Sunflower

4,041 ft

Lowest Point

Verdigris River

679 ft

Built from real data, not stock images.

Every Kansas physical map on this page was rendered from NASA SRTM 30-meter elevation data, with hydrography from Natural Earth and state boundary from US Census TIGER/Line. The terrain texture is real — every ridge, valley, and elevation contour matches what you'd see on a USGS topo map.
