arkdb.info - Interactive map

[Face Wound]

Hi everyone,

http://www.arkdb.info/

Please excuse some of the uglyness with the current map I will go back and correct some of the very obvious issues soon. I have plans to add a lot more to the site but figured I may as well release the interactive map in its current state as it may be useful to some people!

Click anywhere on the map to get the rough GPS co-ordinates. Its not 100% accurate just yet but it is fairly close.

You can place down a marker and click share to share out any locations. E.g : http://www.arkdb.info/#X=194.6875,Z=121.5625


I will be adding points of interest as soon as possible.

Hope someone finds this useful!

Any comments/feedback welcome :)

Not bad, you might want to change Z to Y as that is the Y(Lat) coordinate on the map. Z is height. Also I would suggest not using X and Z/Y because the map uses Lat/Long. This can be confusing for regular players.

can u make it so u can save multiple spots and send the map? like they usually are

Also your coordinates go off the map you need to add a cut off point around your map.

Does not seem to work for me.

Probably do with adding coordinates when you hover rather than just when you click so you can see where you are coords wise before hand. Like in my map, bare in mind my map is for admins tp coordinates not Long/lat http://jdimensional.com/ark-map/

I've just made the changes you suggested :) I will add the ingame co-ordinates for teleport commands shortly, still LOTS to do to the map but I thought it may help some people even in its current state.

I've started to add some points of interest, just a few of the caves to begin with.

Check this high resolution map. Maybe can be used for a more detailed map?

I had no problems in Chrome. Here is another link.

I had no problem loading it once I pasted it in a new tab, but if you click the link from the thread you will get the message about hot-linking not allowed unless you've already been to the page. If you've been to the page before I gather CloudFlare doesn't complain then since it thinks you are loading a resource you've already visited before. (I hate CloudFlare, Marty Strong, their "top" tech didn't even know what an HTTP header was last time I contacted them on an issue)

Edit: Question to Face Wound. How did you capture map data? Maybe I can help generate a higher resolution?

I used the ark dev kit with the camera set to top down perspective (To keep everything flat). I can fix the errors with my map image easy enough I just have to have some spare time to do it, stiching the map is a time consuming process. From the looks of it that map was made by stiching ingame screenshots?
