Mapping The Metropolis That Never Sleeps

Patricio Gonzalez Vivo has created a beautiful Tangram map based on the fine art of Ryoji Ikeda. The Ikeda Map is a beautiful dark & white map, illuminated amongst the animated lights of route traffic together with lights shining from the 3d edifice windows.

Mapzen's Tangram mapping platform is a library for creating 2D & 3D maps using WebGL. One of the principal advantages of Tangram is the powerfulness to means all aspects of the map to practise actually stunning looking private maps.


If you lot similar the Ikeda Map thus you lot mightiness too similar this Cross Hatch map (pictured). Other Tangram maps include the Lego Style map, made out of colored plastic brick textures, the Tron Map, the Day / Night Map and Tangram Patterns.
