Field notes
The site describes both blank-map play and real-place maps, with demonstrations based on Taiwan's Pingxi, Yilan, and Shen'ao lines. Its listed map layers include hourly travel demand, land value, population, and station catchments; the site defines a catchment as an 800-metre radius. It also names data sources including OpenStreetMap, WorldPop, and Taiwan's TDX. The project says it remains in development, with a TestFlight invitation planned for October 31, 2026.
