About these maps
The collection brings together data Hookito already uses: the capitals and facts behind the country pages, the outlines from the countries list, the paintings in Art, the album lists in Audio and the night side of the globe. The boundaries combine Eurostat GISCO and Natural Earth data. The world maps use a plain equirectangular projection, cropped at 84° north and 58° south; the continent and Europe maps are zoomed from more detailed boundaries.
