Grand Map
Project

The Grand Map is a public project on the Survival 3 world. Based at Spawn, the project aims to map the entire 20,000x20,000 block world, using a grid of 400 maps at 1:16 scale. Each map is donated by a player via a donation booth, also in spawn. With the advent of 1.13, players can now add banners to their maps to show their landmarks on the Grand Map, SRN stations are also added. The result is a community map that any player can easily check out by using /spawn to see location of biomes, bases, stations, and cities and where they fit into the world.

History

The Grand Map is a very similar project to the Great Survival Map (GSM) of the Survival 2 world. That project was based in the City of Havana, which shared several key members with the build team for Survival 3 spawn. After the clear success of the GSM, the concept was put forward by the build team and was accepted as a major feature of Spawn.

The Grand Map was not announced in any way, but the first maps began to trickle in once players felt they had the resources to commit to such a large map. Progress has been steady throughout since then, a few players submitting many maps of their surrounding area.
