Hi All,

I want to work on a nice looking contour map like https://wiki.opengeofiction.net/wiki/index.php/File:Topographical_map_of_Drabantia.png But I’m not sure if there’s a way to import the outline of my country into Inkscape from JOSM or I should trace it. Does anyone have experience with this?

Thanks! Meg

Hi All,

Following the advice of OFG Making Realistic Countries, I’m trying to draft my landscape and natural resources in detail before beginning to map human stuff. My country is Embla in Antarephia. Check out the latest draft (rough sketch) on my blog here:

Let me know if you have any suggestions for the realism of terrain/river systems, placement of population centers, or advice on continuing to build detail into the terrain.
