Ootline

Descreeption An equirectangular projection of the world, showing land outlines (resolution ~0.5 degrees). Created using a custom perl script (http://user.interface.org.nz/~gringer/hacking/wdb2svg.txt, rename to .pl) to convert wdb2 vector data (from http://www.evl.uic.edu/pape/data/WDB/) into an SVG file (including combining segments into longer paths). Some tweaking was then done in Inkscape to fix up vector location errors, overlay/XOR paths, then colour as suggested in http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Maps#Map_colors.
Date
Soorce Vector data from CIA World DataBank II, found at WDB.
