Map Generating is a complex and large task. Map generators can create continents, fantasy worlds, and geophysical maps with mountains, rivers, seas, etc. Currently, our library provides a set of features to generate a part of the city with various city objects.

Our Map generation starts with creating interconnected road networks, which means any point on the road brings to its other points on the road. Then fills in the biggest gaps between the roads by parks and the largest residential areas. Then turns for smaller objects like the average residential areas consisting of several houses. Finally, it fills the remaining gaps with separate outbuildings representing simple small buildings.

So you have city objects on your generated map such as:

Road networks
Park zones with trails
Large residential areas with many houses
Average residential areas with several houses
Separate outbuildings
System Requirements
Our API is supported on most platforms and operating systems. Before running the code, please make sure your system meets the appropriate requirements.

Currently, the map’s default visual style is set. We can manage the map type, as well as the percentage of each type of city objects on the map in our library. We have not made these features available to users yet, but we plan to make them available as the product evolves and as interest increases.

Currently, the generated map represents a fixed-size square. The square is not chosen by chance. This form allows you to create tiles for different purposes and build entire cities from these tiles. the one pixel on the map corresponds to about two meters in the real world.

Generate a random map and download it as PNG, BMP, JPEG, or SVG. Our library renders maps as public Map objects, allowing us to render maps in formats supported by our library, such as PNG, BMP, JPEG, and SVG. The SVG format does not degrade map quality when scaling.

Code sample and the result

                
                    
MapGeneratorOptions mapGeneratorOptions = new MapGeneratorOptions();
mapGeneratorOptions.Height = 800;
mapGeneratorOptions.Width = 1000;

var map = MapLayersGenerator.ProduceMap(mapGeneratorOptions);
map.Render(path + ".map.png", Renderers.Png);
