Multilayer World Map for PowerPoint

Need a World Map for your presentation — without starting from scratch?

The Multilayer World Map for PowerPoint helps you build clear, customized visuals in minutes. Use only the layers you need: countries, capitals, lakes, or graticules — all organized for quick editing and easy navigation. Text always stays visible thanks to a smart layer structure. All objects are named and searchable via the Selection Pane.

This is not a presentation or a presentation template – it is a flexible and convenient tool for quickly creating the desired world map for you.

Whether you’re preparing slides for class, explaining a concept, or sketching out an idea, this map saves time and helps you get the job done.

Overview of the Multilayer World Map for PowerPoint

1. Slide size: 16:9 widescreen

2. Projection: Robinson (slightly modified)

3. Map language: By default, the map is presented in English. But you can choose another language.

15 languages available now – Arabic, Bengali, Chinese, English, French, Georgian, German, Hindi, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish, and Urdu.

Note: Geographical names in different languages may sound different and even have different meanings. Unfortunately, not all countries have an official list of geographical names. Moreover, the same geographical object may have several other names, even within one country. Therefore, if you think that you have found an error in the name of some geographical object, please let us know. We will be very grateful. Thank you!

Note: Quick Start Guide and Gifts are supplied only in English.

4. Map detail: Low detail or Normal detail or High detail at your choice

Note: A High detail map is not necessarily better than a Normal or Low detail map. Each detail option has its advantages and disadvantages:

High detail – looks the most professional, contains a large number of details, and has the largest selection of layers. However, due to the complexity and large number of objects, it can increase the size of the final file, and on very weak computers or laptops, it may cause a slight delay (up to 1 second) in the program’s response.

Normal detail – a universal option, a compromise between a professional look and performance. Suitable for most purposes, although it has a smaller selection of layers.

Low detail – very convenient for simple maps with a small number of elements. Looks simple and adds very little to the file size. Has the smallest number of layers.

5. Format: 100% vector-based graphics

6. Editability: Fully editable elements

7. Vector Optimization for PowerPoint: All vector objects have been optimized by reducing the number of nodes to the minimum necessary, ensuring smooth performance in PowerPoint.

A little tip:
When you open a presentation file, you’ll see one slide that displays all layers simultaneously.
To get started quickly and comfortably, do the following:
1. Turn on the Selection Pane (Alt + F10)
2. Collapse all top layer levels (click on the arrows to the left of the layer names in the Selection Pane)
3. Click the Hide All button at the top of the Selection Pane; this will hide all layers.
4. By clicking on the eye icon to the right of the layer name, turn on only the layers you need.
5. If necessary, edit the properties and position of layers or individual objects, select a color scheme, or assign your own colors. Your map is ready.
6. Copy your map to your presentation or export it as needed.
