A visual analysis of selected maps determines the defining characteristics adapted for three-dimensional computer generated environments. The resulting work is presented in a short time-based animation.en-USvisualizationnon-photorealisticshadingcopperplateline-engravingcartographyMayaRendermanA shader based adaptation of selected sixteenth century mapsBook
