I still plan on helping ... I just been a little swamped of late... sorry I'm so sloooow. Just thought I'd mention it in case you thought I forgot.
For those who may be new and others who dont know about it, this is the current state of the areas selected by members. The Region is the first region on the world map that the CWBP is busy mapping. The areas that are shaded and contain names are "owned" by members who are responsible for mapping them (Just the area not all the details in it). The blue shaded areas are areas where maps have already been turned in and they can be viewed and commented on in this sub-forum.
As you can see we still have two areas left to give away before the the whole section has been taken which we at the project will consider a huge milestone. Please get involved. No skill levels are required and you can use any style you like. Our central theme is cooperation and help, advice and encouragement are freely available. There is no deadline and you can choose your own pace. Check out the wiki and Seerblue's cool Google map of the areas we have done. Just two more, come on Newbies give it a shot!
For those who may not fancy regional mapping, there are massive opportunities on the regional maps for you to map local areas of your choice. We need cities, towns, fortresses, settlements of all kinds. Just browse through a few areas and choose something you would like to map. Just check with the mapper of the area first, in case its been done or is being done.
Here is the visual representation of the area so far.

If I could I would like to draw an Inworld Hand Map of the entire area, I'm very good at inworld ones, I just don't have any examples available.

Does any one have a high resolution image of a village or structure that goes at a specific location in their map done yet, besides Redrobes (his Thrub map is big enough to zoom in), I am working at linking subsets of the country maps to other google maps of villages, buildings, caves, whatever has a specific geographical reference off the country map, for the InsCarto google maps of the CWBP. Right now I have 2 working examples on my hard drive, but I am just using filler images plotted any old where, so before I upload them to InsCarto I would like to use real CWBP related imagery,,,,it doesn't have the same"cool" effect if you click on a marker and a field of flowers is all the appears in the other map.....
Once me-dem is back online I will add more maps to the index for viewing. SeerBlue
So far I've only got the town of Kwourin which goes on the Groam map.

I'm very happy to announce that both Bohunk and Jfrazierjnr have joined the project as area mappers, and will be mapping areas 26 and 4 respectively. Welcome both of you the CWBP and dont be shy to post WIPs. Remember to start a new thred for your map.
I'm also very happy to tell you that we have now "sold" every piece of real estate on the Region 1 map. This has always been a major milestone in my mind and its really cool that we have got there. Now its just a matter of getting the maps out there.
Below is the latest view of the land grab. Note the red areas completely filling the map. Blue areas are ones in which WIPs or finished products have been posted on this forum. Lets get bluer people!

Thanks. I hope to get a stub image by end of the weekend. I asked on the other thread, but is there a higher resolution height field and river/lake system generated? Or should we just work with our neighbors and fiat the rest?Originally Posted by Torq
