Man we sure do live in a world full of stuff...

Everything is more in Europe
Feralkyn
Yeah, right. Greenland's airport is always closed, you can't fool me. Madagascar's seaports, too.

TheSpazz
Canada has more airports then citys
Skumbo
What about spaceports? :D
Munchman347
What's that black area North of South Korea?...
PrincessSugarTits
That cities one have to be a lie
Cilvaa
North Korea looking a bit blank in the cities map..
equityforpunks
I'll take 100 on that this is not in scale.
tegknox
There's one missing- Sneezes.
dickbutttt
i thought canada had only one road
dwideshruud
Roads? Where we're going, we won't need roads.

How is it that airports are in the Amazon while roads aren't there .
Burcaw
What about the hogs?
Vazaha
I have been to Madagascar, and I'm therefore unsure as to the accuracy of some of these maps.

Til Hawaii has no roads what so ever
Totallyscrewedinaustin
Does too! There's at least 1 pixel of pink floating in the vastness of the ocean in that road chart
Jimmyb3121
It’s there. What do you think that little pink speck way off to the left is?
eckkorey212
I wanna know how Hawaii has an interstate what state does it connect to
EpitomeofMediocre
I think the only requirement to be an "interstate" is federal funding. See also: I-45.
Melondwarf
And they're all from 1775
SagansLab
Just the Airports, from what I've heard.
Vilgashem
Interestingly, there appears to be greater airport coverage than there are cities
1stLtObvious
Well yeah, smaller, private airports and such for things like personal planes, crop dusters, military bases, rescue operations, etc.
Cymland
Kinda makes sense. A city is defined by the population (over 100k) but there are many small communities that are fly-in only. Not to 1/2
Cymland
Mention that bigger cities often have more than one airport. I lived in a small town & we still had an airport. 2/2
necr0politan
I feel that's way too many airports

Middle Earth. Rather poorly named, being off in tbe corner like that
DirkNurple
Are you serious? Everybody knows that’s the Great Barrier Reef.
V8Bathurst888
Andromidous
That's a lot more airports than I expected tbh
ScottaHemi
i wonder if they're only counting big airports or all the little rural ones as well.
loftius
Australia has about 5-6 international rated airports and 40-50 regional airports. They must be including all airfields
LetMeGoogleThatShtForYou
Fun fact North Korea has Airports/Airstrips and hangers inside mountains...to bad we have bunker busters
Bricklemeyer
I've read that those bunkers are deep enough that even modern bunker busters can't reach them. Don't know if it's true or not.
InkyBlinkyPinkyAndClyde
Must be counting even tiny ones. Look at Canada in the Roads one and then on the Airports one. The whole top part is missing for Roads. /1
InkyBlinkyPinkyAndClyde
But more filled-in for Airports. There's all these tiny places where only bush planes fly to, and no roads go there. /2

Sahara needs to step it’s game up !

I was thinking the same about Westralia.
jimmityjammity
I know, I zoomed right in and couldn't see a single sea port in the region!

It would make one think that Europe has a higher population than SE Asia,l

When Captain Planet puts on the infinity gauntlet.
maninthedarkness
Not if its Cheadle Captain Planet. Then there'd be no roads, no railroads, no seaports, no cities, no airports.
Gantzz321
nobody look at the majority of Canada, if you mention it, you must move there
Bzerka
Thankyou:)

Nice. If I didn't think it would crash my rig, I wouldn't mind shape files of all this info to make a proper map of.

There should be information publically available from ESRI regarding global census data which this is prob taken from
RoosterSkates
Hello map friends!
kawkamawaq
USGS and data.gov ftw. Where my GIS Peeps at? Gimme lat lng.
NZSheeps
Nah - Go for the open street map data.
MarkOfTheCovenant
I want this but in separate photos in high resolution.
MeezerStandardTime
There is some sort of map porn subreddit, that might be a good place to start.
TakeTheStairs
sounds like a job for google
NZSheeps
You could download tha data from Open Street Map and make your own to extremely high resolution (even 1:1, but you'll need a lot of paper)
comicsmakemehappierthanmostpeopledo
Ooh and then I want to overlay them for correlation. Mmmmmm

Crazy how all the sea ports are closer to the ocean, what a trip
simpledud
crazy how nature do that
vandude9090
there's a seaport in idaho
inmediasrays
I am shocked by the amount of airports.
qiirbinu
Did they name it the sea because it’s so close to sea ports?
thelyzardiam
I was waiting for this response or one like it. "Some idiot is going to ask why there are no seaports in the middle." Is what I expected tho
danceswithkittons
tuxedobob
What’s interesting are the ones that aren’t.
bobziIIa
The Great Lakes are lit tho.

AlmightyThor117
Yep, notice how there are no airports in the oceans, there’s no air there
Schaade
There will be when the Chinese get done.

The British sank them in the great revolutionary war
SpruceWillis93
It's because the continental army took them over and destroyed them.
ZanarkandAbes
Can you explain the two seaports in the middle of the US? Unless I missed something and it's now the Mississippi Sea..
cvnk
Just planning for the future
xXWarfairXx
Or a bunch in South America
OnePunMan69
Pascagoula, Mississippi is one of the largest commercial port cities of America
Enoan
The coast of china looks off as well, but harder to place the issue
Arthritor
Oklahoma boasts the furthest inland port in the United States. The Port of Catoosa.
12345545545
I guess they mean major inland ports that ship from river to sea. Mississippi River is a major shipping lane. See South America for same.
FireBreathingStockBroker
West Virginia has a Navy Base, but I doubt they are counting it.
ZanarkandAbes
(I was just being silly with my comment because it said SEAport)

Hey guys, I'm here to answer questions.
