Saudi Arabia Geological Map

This is a map of Saudi Arabia and various geological features. The use of color you can easily identify what they each represent on the legends, although the legend is sort of confusing you can get a good idea just glancing at it what each color represents. I like how the author on the website compares the vibrant choice as a tribute to a Sgt. Peppers album cover.  Also I think the choice a of a black background really makes the foreground of the countries stick out because they have white area also you really focus on that part and not the seas or anything else showing they don't really play any importance besides being a reference. 

You can read more about this map and other maps dealing with the geology in saudi arabia nd the middle east in the petroleum perspective in the link below, but also in Fenwick Library because the book that has these maps is the Aramco Handbook for employees which can be found Fenwick.
