Real World Cities - Jersey City & Hudson County, NJ, USA - 1:1 scale - 11k

This work is a representation of Jersey City and the Hudson County, NJ, USA, on a 1:1 scale with buildings, roads, trees, and vegetation derived from OpenStreetMap.

Individual trees within the cities will be present in-game, if traced on OpenStreetMap. In larger cities this often happens, and therefore it is possible to represent urban vegetation quite realistically. Jersey City has some of the best quality data available on OpenStreetMap!

Biomes are positioned consistently, using high-resolution land cover data.
