MapMaker Interactive from National Geographic allows you to annotate maps with your own lines, markers, text, shapes, links, etc.

You can download and print these maps to use on your poster.
You can share the link to your map so that others can work on it (probably not at the same time though).
You can select different "Base Maps" such as topographical or ocean maps, which remove current country borders and names.
