Map of France Departments

Create a custom map of France divided by its departments, then export your map as a high-resolution PNG, SVG, or PDF file for use in reports or presentations. You have the option to import data from Excel, Google Sheets, or CSV files to automatically color each department based on your dataset, and you can place pins to mark specific cities or points of interest.

Manual coloring is available if you want to highlight certain regions directly, or you can use AI to suggest a color scheme from your data.

If you need an interactive map, you can build one suitable for embedding on your website, letting viewers interact with France's departments to access additional information or explore administrative boundaries in more detail.
