Request:: Although there is allready one image made of oil producing countries, there does not seem to be a map made of known oil fields around the world (see map http://quakeinfo.ucsd.edu/~gabi/sio15/energy/supps/globalmap-oil.jpg ) . In addition, it would be useful to indicate the pipelines connected to it, aswell as maritime shipping routes used to transport the (crude) oil (see http://www.vzg.ru/prod/prod01.jpg ) Should be quite useful for improving info on oil dependance KVDP ( talk) 09:52, 2 March 2012 (UTC)

Article(s): Tao-Klarjeti
Request: Redraw the first image into the format of SVG like the second image has, giving it the red colour as it has in the first image. The first image lacks the land till the Black Sea coast so it should also include the Black Sea coast from the border where Kingdom of Tao-Klarjeti begins in red colour. Please do not include anything but only Kingdom of Tao-Klarjeti name and it's capital Artanuji. Only these two names should be written. Please just include the Kingdom of Tao-Klarjeti on the map without rest of the places like in the south some Kaschiten Emirate. And please also write Black Sea on the place of Schwarzes Meer. GeorgianJorjadze ( talk) 17:41, 12 April 2012 (UTC)
Graphist opinion(s): Done I'm not sure I understood your directions. I kept the red part plus the small orange part towards the coast. Is that what you meant? Also, you should put the new map in the relevant articles - ArnoldPlaton ( talk) 19:42, 20 April 2012 (UTC)
Article(s): Template:Location map Spain Andalusia
Request: Can someone make a new version of this image with an inset that is basically just Spain (rather than also trying to show where in Europe Spain is)? At a normal article scale (see Pedro Muñoz Seca Municipal Theater e.g.), the current inset map is basically useless--readers can't see clearly where in Spain Andalusia is located. Thanks! Calliopejen1 ( talk) 03:31, 14 April 2012 (UTC)
Graphist opinion(s): Done, but I had to leave the Canaries in the inset as I couldn't figure out how to remove their shadow. Hope it's okay, CMD ( talk) 03:29, 18 April 2012 (UTC)
Thanks! I may just upload it as a different image entirely. If anyone else could figure out to remove the Canary Islands, that would be much better. Right now the map is inaccurate because those islands are off the coast of Africa, not near Spain. I was poking around and couldn't figure out how to remove the shadow either, at least without removing the shadow for the whole inset.... Calliopejen1 ( talk) 14:36, 19 April 2012 (UTC)

Request: Is there anyway to replicate this but add the outlying islands of Motu One, Manuae, and Mapihaa and sea in between plus the rest of the Society Islands including Tahiti, Maiao, Moorea, Mehetia, and Tetiaroa? It would be a very long map but we can scroll for that. And it will have to have a really high resolution, too. Exact distances and longitude and latitude positioning would be good too... KAVEBEAR ( talk) 23:31, 24 April 2012 (UTC)
Graphist opinion(s): Request taken by Keithpickering ( talk). Feasible, if scrolling is OK, but expect it to be huge. Also, expect no relief on the low atolls as they are very flat, although the higher volcanic islands will show relief OK. This will be a jpeg.
Also, regarding the level of detail, I can include all the stuff in the Isles Sous Le Vent map, but I don't have a comparably detailed source for the Isles du Vent. That leaves the map rather lopsided in terms of detail. I suggest instead including just the largest town on each island (which is easy to find on e.g. Google Earth) and leaving out names of mountain peaks, airports, and smaller towns. Or if you can provide me with a comparable source for detail in the Isles du Vent, that would work too. Keithpickering ( talk) 03:44, 26 April 2012 (UTC)
Yes, I was referring specifically to Tahiti and Moorea. The references you provided will do fine, thanks. Keithpickering ( talk) 18:34, 26 April 2012 (UTC)
Still a lot of work to do, but take a look at the above rough version, and see if this is about what you had in mind for size and scale, and level of detail. Going to a larger scale allows more detail at the cost of more scrolling; going smaller puts more on the page but loses detail. Once we have the basics settled, I will add bathymetry, topograpy, and shading. Also let me know if you have issues with fonts or font sizes. Keithpickering ( talk) 21:40, 29 April 2012 (UTC)
OK, I've enlarged the scale which helps with island placenames, added airports, bathymetry, and topography. A word about the odd topography in Tahiti. This is usually pretty straightforward, but Tahiti turns out to be a very difficult case. Topography and shading is done using a Digital Elevation Model (DEM) of which several exist on the web. Mostly what I use is SRTM, which is a radar map of the globe taken by the space shuttle using side looking airborne radar. SRTM has a known limitation in that it has data dropouts where terrain is very steep. This includes interior portions of Tahiti. So I went to another DEM, called ASTER which was taken from satellite using infrared. But ASTER also has a known limitation, in that it sometimes cannot tell the difference between cloud and ground. In the case of Tahiti, there are always cumulus clouds over the island in the daytime, so ASTER shows some interior areas as higher than Everest (not good). As a final backstop I went to the GEBCO DEM, which has no data dropouts in Tahiti, but which is much lower resolution (30 arcsec rather than 3 arcsec for SRTM and 1 arcsec for ASTER). What you see here is SRTM where available, ASTER where STRM has dropouts, if ASTER is less than 1200 meters; and GEBCO otherwise. There are some odd artifacts from this procedure in the middle of Tahiti which I will correct "by hand" if everything else looks good. Keithpickering ( talk) 17:40, 5 May 2012 (UTC)
Article(s): United Nations Trusteeship Council, Self-determination
Request: Please review and correct the location of country names, a good number of which are in the wrong geographic position. In the 1945 map, this includes Bolivia, Chile, Argentina, Ecuador, Dominican Republic, Venezuela, Colombia. Also the Pacific Ocean and Indian Ocean labels are currently placed in the Atlantic Ocean. In some cases the country names are a long way from their proper location. There are also a number of incorrect locations of country and ocean labels in the Decolonization Map Today.
