I was hoping we would have like 100 maps to choose from

That would be so nice to have 100 maps to pick from...

More mapping, less ya.... err... more mapping!

Indeed

Aquatic New York...

I've been offline for the last couple of weeks on a visa run and it's been manic. I'll be around a lot more from now on (and I have a few NYC WIPs to add to the mix!)

Pretty cool story. I guess that's what happens when you build something underground...on an island...that used to be really marshy.

Hey! Does anyone know how far under water Manhattan would be if the polar caps melted? I had an idea for mappping the city if the seas were higher and the buildings became islands. Probably done before, but could make for an interesting picture.

I remember reading somewhere over here a post of a site which calculates the rise in water level. I'll try to find and I'll post the link later in the evening cause I don't have enough time know.

That's cool. Only 14m though? I want it deeper!
