In glorious 1:16 scale (and yes it's mostly empty):


Unfortunately, the world being as large as it is means that a 1:1 scale map is impractical, but I can maybe zoom in on some areas by request and look for ways to set up some sort of view people can use online.

Looking good!

If I have any max zoom (4x) or whatever, should I just leave them in the map room in a chest or something?

In a MC server I play with a few friends, we have a geological survey/map office where originals of all maps at full zoom-out are placed in Picture frames on a wall of crystal lantern blocks so when anyone feels like exploring with a map, the big map is automatically updated.

If you have any maps to donate to the Cartarium, please leave them in the chest in my ugly, ugly open construction site. If possible, though, please label the map as "Region <floor((X+64)/2048)>,<floor((Z+64)/2048)>" where X and Z are coordinates at any point in the area covered by the map.

Finally, another update. Urban development is now more prominent in the Darkoak greater metropolitan region and exploration of the coast lines as shown the eastern sea to be larger than original thought.
