Territory, data and selection of names

Malta — generalised global relief, unsuitable for detailed local interpretation.

Natural Earth II shaded relief background, 1 selected cities. No named waterway from this global dataset was selected within this map extent.

The colours represent idealised natural cover; they do not correspond to elevation classes. This global background remains generalised, particularly for small states.
