What resolution do I need?

The right resolution depends on how you plan to use your map. For printing, higher resolutions produce sharper results — especially at larger sizes. A standard print is 300 DPI (dots per inch): that means a 10" wide print needs at least 3000 px to look crisp. Going below 300 DPI results in visible pixelation on paper.

Digital / Social

1920×1080 px — Social media, digital display

8×10"

3600×2400 px — Small prints, framed art

11×14"

5400×3600 px — Standard wall art, gifts

16×20"

7200×4800 px — Large wall art, statement pieces

24×36"

10800×7200 px — Poster size, gallery prints

All tiers above 300 DPI produce print-ready files. The Digital / Social tier is optimised for screens, not printing.
