    Surveying isn’t hard, it’s a science humans have mastered long before this map was made.

    But I that’s like saying putting down a brick is easy, so building the Via Appia wasn’t all that impressive.

    This is the result of the collective efforts of an absurd amount of people working hard in the shittiest, least inhabited places on Earth, and combining all that information into a single sheet of paper.
