Stereo Maps
I've just begun reading a cool book, and it has a stereo aerial pic in it of a landscape. And I thought ... hmm ... I wonder if I could map a STEREO MAP! So I did a little test, attached.
You guys know how to cross your eyes, yes? If you don't, there's probs an explanation of how to see these things somewhere on the web. Learn! It's fun.
Of course, this won't work with traditional Photoshop/Gimp or CC stuff. This requires building your map in 3D and rendering from binocular angles. But it kinda makes me want to start my next map project (lol) in a 3D app.
Venus Public Transit, Map Of Ceres, Jack Vance's Ports Of Call & Lurulu ... why do I only have 3 maps here?

There's been a bit in the past on stereo imaging...
