All right.

Here is a -TENTATIVE- map of north america. I am STILL WORKING ON IT. I am posting it here for FEEDBACK and so that you all can get a LOOSE idea of what North America looks like.

Tell me what you think. It is a 1meg PDF.

One thing that strikes me is that .. Canada+Free Rep. of Western Canada is doing pretty damn well for itself, with nearly 2/3 of mega cities sprawls located between the two. I'd say Mexico City is definitely sprawl area..

I also think Alaska should be a lot more disfigured…and probably big chunks missing out of eastern canada..

[It's pretty slick though.]

Actually, damage wise, things are not as bad as one would think.

I took a composite map I found online made of xray survey data from space. I then looked at some ocean depth increase projections and settled on a depth increase of 80 feet. I then used Florida as my base point, since the highest point of that particular state is only around 100 feet. Using photoshop I was able to select all the areas, by altitude, under 80 feet on the map… and voila, the damaged regions. (you should see what happened to the amazon basin!)


I will probably change the name of the free rep. of western canada... I am not hot on that name at all to be honest.

Mexico sprawls, I never thought of that. I will add them in for sure. Keep the comments coming!

All right, I made some alterations to the file. Same URL.

More Sprawls.

Wow. That's… wow.

Couple of things.

New Huston or New Houston? I understand how names get bastardised over time, but thought I'd mention it.
(Lone Star Republic = awesome, btw)

Likewise, still in the same area - Le Neuvou Rouge or Le Nouveau Rouge?

Given my rather average geographic knowledge of North America, I don't really *see* the impact of the rising water quite as much as you guys who are living there, but to me, it looks fine.

Name for Western Canada... no ideas, but if it's to stay the Free Republic of Western Canada, you should get rid of the first 'b' in "Rebpublic". :)
(Also fond of the idea of it just having "a name" - while everything else is "republic of this" or "free state of that", maybe the Canadians just founded a whole new country and named it after the person who lead the revolution? ...or find something Latin for "fuck off, this is our oil".)

OOOh, I so wanna see, but my PC messes up when I try to open that format. Could anyone take a screenshot of it maybe and put it up? That would be insanely awesome.

Many thanks. Someone suggested downloading Adobe or whatever, but as soon as it was done and I opened it, I got a jazillion error messages :-/


btw,Are all the cities listed on the map Domes?

By Biohazard at Apr 23, 2005, 11:36 PM | 0
No. Not all the cities are domes. Miami is an undersea dome. Sprawls like around New York are just to large to try and dome. Plus, not everywhere on the globe is as blasted as California. It's bad, but not as bad, you know?

I will chat with the rest of the staff about city domes and the like, see what we can figure out.

I'd like to know what the poverty/employment situation is like in places like the neo york/boston sprawl areas…

Comparable to the Withmore City region I would imagine.

The map is now found on the timeline page of the website.
