    Hello everyone! This is qazse here!

    I would like to announce the Winkel-Tripel BAM, a brand-new basemap being made in the Winket Tripel projection! Winkel Tripel has always been one of my favourite projections, and I thought it was time to give the projection of Nat Geo some love.

    I also noticed that essentially all of the currently available basemaps here are either the Worlda projection or equirectangular, so I hope this project inspires people to make more basemaps in different projections.

    With that said, here's progress so far! Only Antarctica is complete for now, but I hope to have the shorelines complete by mid-April at the least.
