- Specially prepared section on Ireland, covering topics such as landforms, communications and population density.
- Fully digital mapping sections.
The contents are divided into five clear sections to make the atlas easay to use. Within each section, every page is colour-coded for rapid reference and the index gives both longitude and latitude co-ordinates and letter-figure references:
- Ireland maps are coded green.
- UK & Ireland map section is coded yellow.
- The World mapping section is coded blue.
- World thematic maps and statics are coded purple.
- Index pages are coded turquoise.
Plus:
- Country-by-country statistics, providing up-to-date figures on population, land use, trade, health, education, energy and economics performance.
- Continental maps covering climate, natural vegetation, population, wealth and economics themes.
- Map projections: a practical explanation of how the world is mapped, introducing some of the projections used in the atlas.
