Topographical map

Description
Elevation Map + Hillshade + Ocean Floor

This map combines elevation data, hillshading, and ocean floor relief into a single high-resolution map.
The legend on the right shows elevation values in Kenshi's internal coordinate system — the same values you see when prospecting. Based on testing, these units are roughly 1:10 compared to real-world meters, so the tallest peak is around 971 meters high.

It’s not very useful in the gameplay sense, but if you’ve ever wanted to understand Kenshi’s landscape from a geographer’s perspective, this map delivers.

Prefer a more default-like style? Check out my other map:

its always weird to see how shallow and squared off the cannibal lands and iron trail are.

@mattefbl, thank you!
I didn't use any existing software, just created 3 simple scripts in Python:
1 - To calculate normal map and render hillshade image in grayscale as 32 bit TIFF.
2 - To apply color gradient to the height map, and render elevation-only image.
3 - To combine 1 and 2 by simple multiplication, and save resulting image as DDS file.

I may polish this software and upload somewhere later.

Amazing job! Can i ask you what program have you used and in what way to obtain it?

It's beautiful. I've looked at this for five hours now.
