@Cliff538 this is amazing! Thanks for sharing this! I've been wanting a flat plain map of my neighbourhood, and this will help me design one ️️️

@quaff I thought this needed wider attention, its really fun. The next step in this is 3D printing topo maps of places. There is online software for that as well.
