The main differences are the colors and cartographic styles. The informative details (labeling) are the same throughout the maps with a few exceptions:
The Voyager 2 includes snow/ice modeling. We use the MODIS satellite from February to show the snow/ice landscape - which you can see in the northern hemisphere.
The Voyager 1 excludes the snow/ice modeling, so you can visualize the elevation and landscape of the terrain.
The Magellan World Map features additional facts about Ferdinand Magellan's epic voyage around the world.
The Voyager, Nautilus, Magellan, and Darwin World Maps include modeling of the landscape and terrain (desert, forests, flat lands, and more) and elevation features - which illustrate the mountainous regions. We applied a hillshade to model the sunlight at 3 p.m. consistently around the world. The hillshade provides a 3D effect. It is a flat surface - yet looks 3D due to the incredible modeling technique.
The Voyager, Nautilus, and Magellan World Maps include all 63 USA National Parks (as of January 2022). In addition, all of these maps include several renowned National Parks around the world.
The Endeavor, USS Enterprise, Humboldt, and Columbus World Maps provide a classic look at Earth without terrain modeling. Each of these maps depicts beautiful cartographic styles - from modern, sleek designs to antique designs that depict the character of old-world maps.
All of the maps feature our ocean floor elevation modeling derived from NOAA oceanic data. This data illustrates the formations of islands, archipelagos, plate tectonics, and ocean currents.

Will there be a hole in my map if I remove a pin?
One of the most frequently asked questions we get at GeoJango is about the holes left by moving a push pin after it has been placed on one of the push pin world maps. Specifically, we get asked, “Will there be a visible hole left in the push-pin map?” The simple answer is yes. However, we want everyone to consider that the holes are so small that they would be extremely difficult to see from more than a couple of feet away, even if you knew exactly where to look. So even though there is a hole left from the puncture mark, they are comparatively small and barely noticeable, especially from a normal viewing distance beyond a couple of feet. Further, the integrity of the maps, thanks in part to the materials that are used, are held intact. High-quality materials combined with the small hole size help a lot. So you don’t have to worry about warping or tearing by normal pushing or pulling of the pins from the maps. This is true even with satin paper options. Everyone can rest assured and take comfort that these made-in-America push pin maps are made with the highest quality and will last for years to come.
