New Accurate Huge ''Earth Map'' on civ 6

[Aramanesh]

Hi ! i'm an old civ fan and i only play earth maps , i can never relate to random maps !
so , i couldn't enjoy civ 6 as i wanted to because there was no accurate map of earth . some of them were too big that i couldn't get passed modern era though i have good RAM &... on my PC and other maps just lacked in details . also the maps that came later on civ 6 itself were nothing but jokes cause they weren't accurate at all and they weren't even huge .
that's why i got so excited when i found out there is this thing called " World Builder " and i made an earth map , a huge size one which is really accurate in Geography . i used all sorts of real maps of mountains , Jungles &... and i even studied for days to decide which rivers must be on the map to be fair , worldwide . the only problem is that i went over myself with the resources and used too many ... but still , i really think this is one of the best earth maps there is .
it definitely has big flaws , that's why i thought of sharing it here with you guys so i could make the map better . you'll make me so happy if you share your ideas with me concerning the map .
i made the map with the World Builder and changed its name to EarthStandard and replaced it with the "civ6map" file type which exists in the map folder of civ 6 , and the combination of these 2 EarthStandard maps that one is the old LUA file and the other is the civ6map one that i built on world builder , works fine in the game .
i really tried to be accurate on this map ... i'm a Telecommunication Engineer and i find accuracy very important though the map has some flaws . i also had a problem uploading the file here , so here's the Link to it :

Hello, can you give data on size? maybe some screenshots on Europe? how is the ratio of waters to land?

Hi, I would appreciate some screenshots please... I am the same kind of player as you and I'm interest in your map

thanks for replying ! it's funny that how quickly i lost confidence on second thoughts , concerning the accuracy of the map ... LOL . here are some screen shots of all over the earth ... some flaws are intentional ! like i made Japan and some islands on it's south , bigger than in reality but that's why i usually play as Japan and it has literally no land to do anything ...but i'm sure there are lot's of other inaccurate things in it which hopefully i fix after collecting some feedback i'll even make a new map if needed .
the combination of "size of the screenshots" and my "net speed" caused me a problem ... so i uploaded "Europe and America" 's screenshots ... i try to upload rest of the screenshots , soon .

your map is quite well, but I have some opinions, If I may:
1-) The Netherlands' coastline is a bit bigger than usual;
2-) Great Britain's should be have 2 less tiles in it's northern lenght;
3-) France too small;
4-) Europe should be moved 1 tile up;
5-) Africa's "head" should be bigger;
6-) South America too small;
7-) Florida too big;
China's "belly" should be fatter;
9-) Although Korea and Japan have very accurate shapes, you should shrink them a bit;
10-) Iberian peninsula, Italy, Greece, India, Middle East, Scandinavia, Southeast Asia, Central America and South America should have more plains tiles;
11-) Russian Khabarovsk and Prymorsk regions should have more tundra tiles;
12-) Italy and Greece should have 1 less tiles in it's southern lenght;
13-) No Hawaii
14-) Italy's coastline should not be so flat

Well that's all I though for now, sorry if this may sound a bit rude

THANKS ! This is great feedback , not rude at all . i agree with almost all of the above , but making Korea and Japan bigger than usual was intentional cause i always feel for a fair start , they really deserve more land ! but it shouldn't be at the cost of making China's belly , smaller ! so i'll fix that ... and i gave more tiles to north of Great Britain so that Scotland could have a better starting position ... but rest of the things you said are all great points and true , i'm already trying to fix all of these things . big thanks !
i uploaded rest of the screenshots in this post . University has started but i'm so excited to make a better map , so i'll put some time on it and probably come up with another map in a week or two i had no idea how to use cliffs ! i should study a bit about that too and find some good maps comparing height of the lands .
