Show HN: Valencia, Spain in Sim City/Isometric View

Tiny València

An isometric pixel-art map of València, in the spirit of SimCity and of Isometric NYC. Every building is a real one, drawn from above at the same angle, block by block.

The whole municipal term is painted, from the huerta to the Albufera, except a few small huerta exclaves where there's no 3D imagery to paint from.

How it's made

Real 3D city data is rendered from a fixed isometric camera. An image model trained on a hand-picked pixel-art style then repaints it, tile by tile, each tile continuing its painted neighbours so the city stays seamless. The sea, the port basins and the Albufera are drawn in the same style.
