Blank map maker

Why a blank map beats a static image

The usual way people make a colored map is to search for a blank outline image, open it in an image editor, and fill regions with the paint bucket. That falls apart quickly: the bucket leaks across anti-aliased borders, small regions are hard to hit, and if you get one value wrong you often start over.

Here every region is a separate vector shape. Clicking one colors that region exactly, with clean borders every time. Change a value and the map updates - there is nothing to redo.

What blank maps are available

The library covers four levels of detail, so you can go from a whole-world overview down to individual districts.

Blank maps for teaching and worksheets

A blank map is often wanted for a quiz or a worksheet rather than for data. Turn labels off and export a clean outline for students to fill in by hand, or turn labels on and export a reference version - the same map, two exports, no separate source file to keep in sync.

SVG export is the useful one for printing: it stays sharp at any paper size, where a downloaded PNG of unknown resolution often does not.

From blank to finished

Color regions by clicking, or paste a spreadsheet column to color them all at once. Add a legend, a title and a description, then export. Work is saved automatically as you go, so closing the tab does not lose the map.
