So, I was looking for an uninhabited island in OpenStreetMap and found Natata (around lat: 3.218, lon: 172.958) in the Pacific. Bloxed it in Minecraft with WorldBloxer.

Will use Minecraft-Natata for cyber vacations and meditative block-building. Find your favorite spot on Earth, blox it in Minecraft with WorldBloxer and use the map as a template when you perfect your version of the real world. http://www.geoboxers.com/WorldBloxer/ The whole world on-demand in Minecraft.

WorldBloxer  - new examples

Playing with WorldBloxer and exploring the world. Two new examples: The westernmost island in the Azores, Flores, with it’s rough coastline towards the Atlantic Ocean. It is obvious that the steep slopes of the island are not shown with the quite rough SRTM elevation model. Still quite cool, though, and suitable as a template for building a nice looking version of the area.

Options chosen in WorldBloxer:

Buildings: Stained clay, Biome: Hot wet, Underground: Stone

In the Middle East on the coast of the Persian Gulf, Kuwait City is located in a dry and warm climate. 

Interesting to see, that a many buildings in Kuwait City are actually registered in OpenStreetMap while they are not included in Google Maps. Also interesting is the large number of parking lots.

Options used to ‘blox’ the 1 km x 1 km area:

Buildings: Funky, Biome: Hot dry, Underground: Sandstone.
