    Though there is an interesting update on the website of the map : there is a updated version with a patrons release in November 2018 and a global release in 2019.

  I bought a copy of this map a few years ago to replace an aging National Geographic version and it has been a tremendous upgrade. For a while, we had it under a plastic sheet that protects the kitchen table[1], and it was great fun to discover details almost every night that were just really amazing. [1] When we get a rolled poster we'll flatten it by putting it between the table cloth and the plastic cover of the kitchen table. Depending on the weight of the paper that can take one to 6 months but it leaves us with a nicely flat result which was can laminate and hang.
