- The page names OpenStreetMap, real elevation data, and 16 hand-modelled landmarks as parts of its city.
Field notes
The instructions give the flight a short arcade loop: steer toward tossed simits, hover with brake, dive for double catches, and keep the hunger bar from emptying before the ferry docks. The page says the city draws on OpenStreetMap streets, quays, and buildings plus real elevation data; it also identifies the ŞH-KADIKÖY ferry and lists landmarks on both sides of the Bosphorus.
