IRL, I'm an #archaeologist and #GIS analyst. So I spend a lot of time looking at and working with #maps.

But I've also employed GIS in #gaming. Here I've created a hex grid over a land-use map of a lakeside subdivision near my home. I then used that as a basis for creating "Lakeside Subdivision", a map you can find in the #opensource computer version of #BattleTech, #MegaMek.

@bewarethequemens Very cool!! Well if you're into #Gaming and #Archaeology, then maybe check out this section of #TheVideoGameLibrary.

An impressive amount of books on this intersect:

@bewarethequemens Nice! I miss Bass Tour, an early game you could program maps in. The software would then populate it with fish based on the shoreline, cover & vegetation you put on the map.
