Map Archive Switzerland
What we offer
Explore the collection of over 400 alluring and captivating thematic maps covering a wide range of statistical topics! Generally speaking, facts are presented for Switzerland as a whole. Information about specific areas of Switzerland will depend on topic and statistical base. European and world maps can be found in the World Data section. All maps are presented according to a set of topics varying from one statistical product to another. Use the left navigation frame to browse through the list of available topics. Use the right navigation frame to browse through any available sub-topics.
The gallery is not intended to provide definitive and systematic coverage of individual topics. Instead, it acts as a representative sample of everything that the FSO’s Thematic Cartography Unit (ThemaKart) has produced since the early 1990s. The vast majority of maps are from print publications (e.g. Statistical Yearbook of Switzerland).
Please note: maps are not available in English. All maps are labelled in German and French only.
Updates
All map collections are assessed and updated yearly. You will find more current and detailed maps in the Swiss Statistical Encyclopedia or in the various interactive map applications.
Terms of use
All maps are protected by copyright. Before using them, please read the Terms of Use and Copyright information provided at the bottom of each Web page.
Features
Clicking on the Preview link will display a larger view of the map in .gif format. This feature has been enhanced for quick on-screen display. Click on the various icons to download and print high-resolution, multi-zoom graphics in Adobe Acrobat .pdf format. Keep in mind, however, that large files may take some time to download.
