Actually, the ND/SD line is specifically based on 45'55 because of the Coteau des PrairiesI just found out that the eastern part of the Oregon-Washington border is one pixel higher than the North-South Dakota border. Both borders are defined along the 46th parallel, and from what I can tell based on the Oklahoma-Kansas (37th parallel), Kansas-Nebraska (40th parallel), Nebraska-South Dakota (43rd parallel), and US-Canada (49th parallel) borders, it's more likely that it's the Oregon-Washington border that is misplaced by one pixel, and therefore also misplaced other historical borders in the borderpool.
Do you have a normal sea level version with these graticules and coast shadows?Ight so I decided to pull myself up the bootstraps and make some Qbammys (probably not too accurate but eh)
If it's alright to ask, an integral part of these patches I've noticed a lot lately are just labelling. I've seen hundreds of works like these, but I haven't a single clue on to how to "label" them. Like, "What is that pixelated font everybody uses?" "What kind of program are people using to label?" etc. If you have any possible answers to this, I am kindly asking, as it's driven me up the wall.View attachment 761363
Similar to what I did in the M-BAM thread, this is a small QBAM patch for Moldavia 1483 AD, made by shrinking then tracing the MBAM one.

Scale doesn't help you with distortion and the Q-BAM is very distorted in regards to longitude. Unless you are dealing with a really small area of it that's either close to the equator or shaped like a known shape before beign distorted by the projection.Hey sorry to Barge in, i just wanted to ask whats the scale exactly of the QBAM map, i need it to calculate surface area.
Thanks.Scale doesn't help you with distortion and the Q-BAM is very distorted in regards to longitude. Unless you are dealing with a really small area of it that's either close to the equator or shaped like a known shape before beign distorted by the projection.
You'd need to find the mathemathical formulae for the creation of the Kavrayskiy VII map projection's longitude, which is think is in wikipedia, first of all. Then either convert it to a more friendly cartesian coordinate system and then you could use some basic integration to get your area... Or you could automate it if you want far more precision.
Or you could do the challenging thing and do it through a non-euclidean system of trigonometric coordinates. Though for that you'd need some knowledge of mathematical manifolds.
Whatever method you choose, I'd recommend doing through programming...
Or ignore all of the above and get GProjector which does all of those things already; which is something I just remembered. Insert facepalm here.
Pretty good, especially with the lakes, great detail there, though you missed Xinfengjiang Resevoir in Guangdong, and Qiandao Lake I think is a bit more linear than that. Furthermore, Weishan Lake seems to have drifted off into Zaozhuang a bit, even though it should actually straddle the border between Jiangsu and Shandong. I think this is a consequence of how central China in the bad QBAM internals is weirdly stretched upwards, so Weishan ends up a bit northwards of where it's supposed to be. Other than that, I implore everyone to adopt this as the standard for the modern day PRC.While I usually stick to historical patches, some of my alt-hists have required internals, and @Admiral A. Kolchak 's concerns about Chinese internals on the Q-BAM have led me to producing this:
So far this is just a teaser, but I've cleaned up the base internals that Kolchak already provided awhile ago, and have finished Yunnan
