Table of maps
In this section you can find all the maps generated by this project.
Feel free to propose new kinds of maps! 🎉
For each map you can click on the image to see a live preview.
Please note that the previews show you the worst resolution available.
See the details for higher resolutions.
All the maps are exported as GeoJSON and available to be downloaded directly from
GitHub or as package on npm.
See the details of each map for more information on how to get started.
