State ZIP Code Maps

SPECIFICATION

INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR ORDER
PLEASE READ BEFORE PROCEEDING

The specifications below describe the maps you would receive. We believe you should know exactly what to expect when you order a map from Maponics.

A sample of this type of map is available on this page. If you have any questions, please call us at 800-762-5158.
* Map image will include ZIP Code boundaries, county boundaries, and highways.
* ZIP Code areas will be outlined and labeled with the 5-digit ZIP code. The USPS changes ZIP code areas frequently. Our data is updated quarterly however minor discrepancies may occur.
... ZIP Codes will be shaded in one of 5 colors, for easier differentiation
... ZIP codes will also be labeled with the postal town name
... Unique ZIP Codes (usually single institutions or companies) and PO Box only ZIP Codes are not shown.
... Some labels may overlap
... Insets for high density areas will be provided as appropriate
* County areas will be outlined and labeled.
* Highways will be labeled with appropriate shields. In cases where a highway changes into a non-highway classified road, the highway may appear to "end".
* Cities will be shown on the map by either: 1)labeling the ZIP Code areas with the postal town name; or 2)showing cities as labeled dots. If cities are shown as labeled dots, they will be included as possible given the size constraints of the map area. While Maponics applies a logical priority (based on population) in determining which cities appear, there is no guarantee that any particular city will be displayed.
* The map legend will include symbols, colors, and labels for all map elements. Maponics reserves the right to modify colors as appropriate to achieve the best cartographic representation. Custom coloring, labeling, and feature display are available for additional charges.
* Each map will include the Maponics logo information and any applicable copyright notices. Any duplication, digital or paper, in whole or in part must retain this information.

*Reports:
Reports are not included unless ordered. Two report options are available: Basic and Enhanced.
