About This File
Time for another map! This time, it's Longyearbyen, Svalbard, Norway (for SimCity 4). At a latitude of 78' 12'N, Longyearbyen is known for being the world's northernmost settlement with a population of over 1,000. It is located on the archipelago of Svalbard, which is under treaty status administered by Norway. Generally, any citizen of any signatory country may live and work on Svalbard provided they meet minimum income requirements and have arranged housing. Because of its extreme northern location, Longyearbyen experiences "polar night" for 111 days between late October and mid-February, during which time the sun never rises. After a brief period between mid-February and mid-April, Longyearbyen then experiences "midnight sun" for 127 days from mid-April to late August, during which time the sun never sets. There is also not a tree in sight on Svalbard.
The map is 20 x 24 large city tiles and is accurately scaled based on DEM data. It includes Longyearbyen, Barentsburg (a Russian settlement) and Pyramiden, a ghost town and abandoned Soviet coal mine.
In order to install the map you will need wouanagaine's mapper or terraformer as the file is in SC4M format.
I hope you can put this map to good use, enjoy!
