Dragon Eye Atlas:Your World

There is quite a bit of technology behind this online atlas, and I want to enable other worldbuilders and game masters to use it for their own worlds.

Building Blocks

The basic elements are these tools:

• Azgaar's Fantasy Map Generator for generating the world map
• QGIS for managing and editing map data
• Mapbox, both Mapbox Studio for styling and serving maps and Mapbox GL JS on the client side
• Semantic MediaWiki as, well, the wiki
• Widgets Extension to embed the maps into the wiki

Tutorials

The whole process is described in detail in a tutorial series:

• Part One - from Azgaar's to QGIS
• Part Two - from QGIS to Mapbox
• Part Three - refining the map
• Part Four - refining mapbox
• (upcoming) Part Five - Fantasy Wikipedia
• (upcoming) Part Six - Embedding Maps into the Atlas
