How to make a blank Cabo Verde map

  1. Open the Cabo Verde map. Start from the panel above, which is already the editor. What a click paints here is one region. There are 19 of them, all listed further down this page: check that list before you start, it is the whole of what this map can colour.
  2. Write the legend before you paint. Add one entry per category and say what it means in your own words. The legend is part of the exported image, so a map that made sense to you at midnight still makes sense to someone who sees it cold.
  3. Fill the regions. Every click paints one region. Fill everything in a baseline colour first and then paint the exceptions, or paste a table of regions and values and let the colour scale do it.
  4. Export or publish. Download a PNG, JPEG, SVG or PDF at the size you ask for, or publish for a link with a preview image.

What you can do

  • All 19 regions, each a separate clickable shape.
  • Flat colours, or stripe, dot and checkerboard patterns for the categories that would otherwise look alike.
  • Colour by numbers: paste a table of names and values and the map fills itself in on a scale you choose.
  • A legend you write yourself, with a heading, dragged wherever the map has room.
  • Names or codes printed on the regions, on or off, in a colour you pick.
  • Backgrounds, borders and border colours are all editable, or turn the borders off entirely.
  • PNG, JPEG, SVG and PDF export at the end, with nothing to install first.

Make your own blank Cabo Verde map

Where things happen in Cabo Verde

Which regions a project, a harvest, a language or a road network covers. Maps of African countries are usually drawn at the national outline by people who have never been there, so a map that shows the regions of Cabo Verde is already saying more than most.

Data by region

Census figures, rainfall, school enrolment, mobile coverage. Paste a table of regions and values and the map shades itself in bands you set, with a legend that says what each band means. A region that has no value stays white rather than pretending.

Where you have been in Cabo Verde

The regions you have visited, lived in, worked in or only passed through. Three colours and a legend that says what each one means, and 19 shapes is small enough to finish in one sitting.

Cabo Verde on the world map

Pick Cabo Verde and any other countries on the world map and colour them on one board, opening any of them into their own regions. That is the map for anything that does not stop at a shoreline.

Common questions

How many regions are on the Cabo Verde map?

19, every one of them a separate shape you can click and fill. The list above runs from Boa Vista to Tarrafal de São Nicolau. They are the first-level divisions of Cabo Verde as the source data draws them, credited on our credits page, so a merged or disputed area appears the way the source has it.

Does Cabo Verde share a land border with anyone on this map?

No. On the world map no other country's outline touches it, so a map of Cabo Verde with its neighbours is a map of coastlines: pick the countries across the water on the world map and colour them together.

Is Cabo Verde on a bigger map here too?

Yes. Cabo Verde is one of the countries on the Africa map, and on the world map, where it can be opened into its own regions beside its neighbours at theirs.

Can I colour something smaller than a region?

Not on this map. It works at region level, which is the level nearly every map of Cabo Verde is drawn at.

Can I put the names on the map itself?

Yes. Region labels can be switched on for the whole map, in a colour and size you choose, and you can write your own text for any region where the real name is too long to fit. On a busy map most people leave the labels off and let the legend carry it.

Do I need an account?

No. The editor opens straight away, the map stays in this browser while you work, and exporting an image never asks you to sign in. An account only matters if you want to publish a map at a link other people can open.

Can I use the exported map commercially?

The image is yours, and we ask for no credit: the only mark on it is the site address in small type in the bottom corner, and nothing is drawn across the map. Nothing from the map data is added to the picture either, because we only ship boundary data whose licence is satisfied by naming it on our credits page, so there is no credit line to print and nothing for you to pass on. Anything you add to the map stays your own.
