FAQ
What does WOSMap stand for?
Worth One's Salt Maps. Being worth your salt means doing the job well, and that's the standard for every map we print. The salt is a nod to Salt Lake City too.
Can I get anywhere in the world?
Almost. Our maps come from worldwide open map and elevation data, so most cities and landscapes work. If a spot has thin building data we'll tell you before we print.
How long does it take?
Every map is printed to order. Most arrive about 1 to 3 weeks after you order.
Where do you ship?
Within the United States only for now. Shipping is included in the price.
Can you make a tactile map for someone who is blind or has low vision?
Yes. WOSMap started as a tactile map maker, so raised streets and buildings that read clearly by touch are what it does best. Mention it in your order.
How should I display it?
Give it light from the side. A window to one side or a low lamp throws small shadows off every building and ridge, and that's when a map really comes alive.
How do I care for it?
Dust it with a soft brush or a puff of compressed air. Keep it out of hot cars and strong direct sun, since printed plastic can soften in high heat.
Is every map perfect?
Each map is printed layer by layer, so up close you may see fine lines or a tiny mark. That's part of a made-to-order print, and we check every map before it ships.
Can I order several, like closing gifts for my clients?
Yes. Email us the addresses and how many you need, and we'll send a preview of each before we print.
What's your return policy?
You can return a map within 14 days of delivery. Email maps@worthonessalt.com to start a return.
