Summary[edit]

Description
English: The known flight path (red) of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370. This is a blank version of this map and is made available for use in cases where this SVG file cannot be used. The SVG file should be used when translating the map for use on Wikipedia and is superior to this file!


Note that latitude and longitude numbers and kilometer/mile numbers on the scale are removed (so this file can be used with non-Arabic numerals)...don't forget to add them when using this file!!

Source Own work
Flight path traced from a map ("Figure 2: MH370 flight path derived from primary and secondary radar data") on page 3 of the report MH 370 – Definition of Underwater Search Areas published by the Australian Transport Safety Bureau. The source map is in simple cylindrical projection (from Google Earth) and was gereferenced and distorted into a flat Mercator projection before being traced for this map. The data in the source image (ie. the flight path) that was traced to generate this map is the location of Flight 370. The position of an object is a fact; facts cannot be copyrighted.
Background is the "Simplified World Polygons (LSIB) - March 2013" dataset available from the US Department of State - Office of the Geographer (public domain). Map boundaries: 93°E-107°E & 0.5°S-11°N.
