What the Costa Rica map covers

This map cuts Costa Rica into 7 provinces, and every one of them takes its own color. By mapped area the largest is Puntarenas (about 11,100 km², 22% of the country's mapped surface); the smallest is Heredia at about 2,700 km². The mapped outline reaches from 8°N to 11°N and spans roughly 3° of longitude. Some provinces are drawn as more than one piece, which is why the map carries 8 outlines for 7 provinces.

Tips for coloring the Costa Rica map

At 7 provinces there is no need for a gradient — 7 strongly contrasting solid colors will separate them at a glance, even in greyscale print.
Exporting for print? Raise the PNG width to 3,000 pixels or more before downloading, or take the SVG, which stays sharp at any size.
Give the map a title and name each color in the legend editor — a colored map without a legend needs a caption to explain itself.
