Map — Iowa State
An accurate map of Iowa State that keeps hierarchy under control when scaling from A3 to A0. Bridges, tunnels and ferry lines are isolated so routes remain legible after recolor. Waterfronts and parks receive extra separation for better contrast on light palettes. Coordinates and scales are prepared for sheet production and consistent exports. Layer structure separates arterials and locals, districts, hydrography, parks and landmarks. Contours and landuse layers can be toggled to match tourism or planning use cases.
Ideal for signage, event maps, campus leaflets and waterfront brochures. Works well as an underlay for wayfinding, transport schemes and editorial layouts. Legibility holds up on handheld leaflets and large lobby posters alike. Editors can brand the palette and icons, then export sharp results for both print and web. Export presets help maintain crisp strokes on both coated and uncoated paper.
