Wisconsin Outline Maps
We offer a variety of digital outline maps for use in various graphics, illustration, or office software. The map graphics available for download have been derived from several common layers of digital GIS data. All of the statewide GIS data layers used were processed by state agencies and exist in the Wisconsin Transverse Mercator coordinate system.
