Se non sbaglio di grosso il datase VMap0 [1] e' un'evoluzione di 
DCW, grossomodo dati vettoriali buoni per una scala 1:400000.
Liberi e usabili senza bisogno di Arc-aggeggi.

Dai miei appunti:

VMAP0 Vector Map (VMap) Level 0 is an updated and improved 
version of the National Imagery and Mapping Agency's (NIMA) 
Digital Chart of the World (DCW®). The VMap Level 0 database 
provides worldwide coverage of vector-based geospatial data which 
can be viewed at 1:1,000,000 scale, i.e. 1cm=10km. It consists of 
geographic, attribute, and textual data stored on CD-ROM or as 
downloaded files.
