[edit] Summary
User:Finlay McWalter's Caltrain map in SVG format. Based upon uploaded SVG here: Image:Wfm caltrain.png/source
Information is adapted from the official Caltrain version. All graphical elements are original or are adapted from uncopyrighted sources.
[edit] Method of production
Drawn by Finlay McWalter in the following manner:
- An outline was rendered using Panmap running NOAA WVS (world vector shoreline).
- This was exported (as a bitmap, all that Panmap can do) to Paint Shop Pro. This was manually repaired (holes filled, island groups tweaked, and shoreline details clarified or erased). Then the bitmap was floodfilled, so that the subsequent vectoriser will produce polygons rather than lines.
- This was imported into Inkscape and vectorised using Inkscape's "path->trace bitmap" function.
- All details were then manually drawn.
Differences between this version and the offical Caltrain map:
- The official Caltrain map is copyrighted by PCJPB.
- It's bigger than the Caltrain map, and clearer when printed.
- The official map doesn't denote express stops.
- The official version doesn't have acute over e in San José.
- This version shows the ACE interchange at Santa Clara, which the official one doesn't.
