Tera — the map view of Lumbridge Simulate Copyright 2026 Lumbridge Corp. This product includes software developed at Lumbridge Corp. Licensed under the Apache License, Version 2.0 (see LICENSE). ORIGIN AND ORIGINALITY ---------------------- Tera's city view was inspired by the interaction model of two prior works — Levels.fyi Atlas, and Nutlope's NYC AI Atlas (https://github.com/Nutlope/ nyc-ai-atlas), which itself credits Levels.fyi. What was taken is the *idea*: a left-hand chapter legend, animated camera flights into map areas, clickable place labels, and ambient motion in the scene. No code, geometry, or asset from either work is present here. Tera's renderer, its terrain system, its block-lattice building placement, and every coordinate in every city pack were written from scratch. The two projects do not even share a subject: the NYC atlas renders hand-traced Manhattan on flat ground, and Tera's premise is relief — a city you cannot read without its section. Stating this plainly matters, because at the time of writing the NYC AI Atlas repository carries no LICENSE file. Absent a licence grant, the default is that no rights are given, so nothing from it could have been reused even had we wanted to. Attribution here is courtesy toward a good idea, not a licence obligation. GEOGRAPHIC DATA --------------- All geography in src/cities/ is original expression, traced by hand. It is deliberately NOT derived from OpenStreetMap. OSM data — including coordinates returned by Nominatim geocoding — is licensed under the Open Database License (ODbL), whose share-alike terms would attach to any derivative database and cannot be reconciled with the permissive licence above. Where real elevation data is used in future, it will come from USGS/SRTM sources, which are United States government works in the public domain. Where addresses are geocoded to coordinates and those coordinates are then served publicly, the geocoder is the US Census Geocoder (geocoding.geo.census.gov), a United States government work in the public domain. This is a licence requirement rather than a preference: publishing a snapshot of OSM-derived coordinates is Public Use of a Derivative Database under ODbL and carries share-alike obligations no matter where the rows are stored. Commercial geocoders are not an escape either — Google, Mapbox and HERE all restrict storing and redistributing the coordinates they return. Every such row carries a provenance field, and rows whose provenance is not on the non-ODbL allowlist are refused at publication time. TRADEMARKS ---------- This repository contains no third-party logos, wordmarks, or brand assets. Organisation logos displayed by applications built on Tera are fetched at runtime and are never redistributed as part of this project. All trademarks, service marks, and trade names are the property of their respective owners. Any use is nominative — to identify the organisation referred to — and does not imply affiliation with or endorsement by the trademark holder. ARTISTIC OUTPUT (src/assets/) ----------------------------- The material under src/assets/ is source code and is licensed under Apache 2.0 along with the rest of this repository. In addition, the copyright holders of that material dedicate the artistic output it generates — meshes, geometry and textures produced by running it — to the public domain under CC0 1.0. This repository is therefore NOT uniformly Apache-2.0, and that is deliberate: it means a mesh generated from this library can be used in another project without carrying a NOTICE obligation into it. See src/assets/LICENSE-ART for the dedication and CONTRIBUTING.md for the inbound grant that keeps it true. THIRD-PARTY DEPENDENCIES ------------------------ three.js — MIT License — Copyright (c) 2010-2026 three.js authors https://github.com/mrdoob/three.js Build tooling (Vite, TypeScript, esbuild) is a development dependency only and is not redistributed in built output. AIRCRAFT DATA ------------- The flight sources shipped in this repository are a simulator (original work) and clients for open community ADS-B feeds. No commercial aviation data provider's data is included or redistributed, and no client for a provider whose terms prohibit such use is present.
