Punta Cana  1.0

My goodness, I can't believe the most famous tourist destination of the Caribbean hasn't been published yet!

Hello to all fellow mayors of Simtropolis, I am delighted to present a piece of paradise for all aspiring city-builders, Punta Cana.

This map is an accurate horizontal scale rendition of the world-renowned resort coast of the Dominican Republic, especially edited to make beach resort scenes amid the confluence of Caribbean Sea and Atlantic Ocean waters. Vertical topography is slightly exaggerated to make for an interesting landscape, at which luxury hotels and rental apartments overlook beaches, golf courses and tourist trap towns ranging from Bávaro in the north to Cap Cana to the south.

Size: 16.38km X 30.72km (16 X 30 small tiles, 4 X 7.5 large tiles)

Type: real world, (mostly) accurate scale

Recommended terrain mods: GrassLands or HBS Californian Terrain Mod

Recommended coastal mods: Rivit's Coastal Mod 2009 (brown sand beach or white sand beach, Green foreshore, Ultramarine offshore)

Those who render the region from the grayscale map must use beskhu3epnm's High Elevation Import Mods w Erosion Control Parameters, namely the 250m plugin with the desired erosion level (I'd recommend either the no erosion (NE) or quarter erosion (QE)

For this map I have provided the SC4Mapper file, the grayscale and a config optimized for coastal resort sites. Enjoy!
