Field notes
The tool converts geographic features into individually paintable shapes rather than treating a map as a static image. Users can work from a searched location, apply one of 150 palettes transcribed from paintings, films, or design systems, use 224 broader looks, or mix a custom palette. The gallery contains 1,000 described compositions, and the page says exports can be shared or prepared for several physical print formats.
