A larger, more detailed topographic map (JPG, 423 KB) is also available. The image may appear compressed on your screen, but should print properly. When printing the file, use the page setup feature to use landscape orientation with all margins set to 0.25 inches or less; try fitting the image to one page. A color printer in best quality mode is strongly recommended. If the image still does not fit one page, try a smaller version (JPG, 321 KB).
An electronic copy of the entire 1:24,000 Voluntown topographic quadrangle can be downloaded. Image editing software can be used to crop and print the map. The map is a zipped TIF file (2.4 MB) from the Rhode Island Geographic Information System (RIGIS).
