Xkcd click and drag full map full#

(now i realized i can get rid of the extension and made it work aw, but it's 00:30 here and i'm going to sleep!)Ģ. the files MUST be named as you download them! (xnxw.jpeg) <– jpeg!!! Just ended the last version and it works like a charm… almost XDġ. Since some visitors might be interested, here is the list, I found so far. Thank you Randall, and keep up your great work!! Edit: Other people’s approachesĪ lot of other people on the web did very similar but different approaches.

This map is again 1/10th of my full map, so 1/100th of the original images (click to see full size, otherwise it’s approx. The black grid lines mark the border between e-w and n-s, although the latter can hardly be seen, since the whole line is set with images. I added a white grid, so that you can easier follow the coordinates. On the top and left you can find the coordinates of the png files. These are either completely black or completely white. Gray marks areas where no images are available. You can find the sorted list of all images at the end of this post.Īfter I got all the images, I downsampled them to 1/10th, and arranged them with a little C# hack. I got 225 files that existed, all others are completely black or white and returned a 404-Not found. I did a brute force download of all the images (sorry Randall) using simple DOS shell commands like this for the s-e-quadrant: FOR /L %x IN (1,1,25) DO FOR /L %y IN (1,1,48) DO wget These are the bounds of respectively, however, I did only find images for, a little bit less in the n-s direction, but maybe I was missing something. The bounds can be found in the JavaScript file : var size= The images are each 2048×2048 pixels in size and are arranged in an orthogonal grid.

Where n, s, e, w are characters to select the quadrant, and X and Y are positive integers (>=1) with no zero padding. I figured out, that the map pieces follow the URL pattern Y.png, So I decided to create an overview map, to aid you in navigation. It is so large, that it takes a really long time to go through it. You can explore it via clicking and dragging, as the title suggests. Today’s xkcd comic has probably the largest comic frame ever drawn.
