I too like anchovies on my pizza and Greek salad.

Was that directed at me? I admit I'm much better with MongoDB than SQL, so thank you.

CCP has no sense of humour.

Thanks Tippia, that is indeed exactly what I'd need. (I can script a bit, and I use SQL in my mapping programs, but I am not familiar enough with SQL programs to get at the information I'd need). If you can get me the same list for high & null I'd throw some isk your way. Big smile
Sure. You'll have to do the separation between sec levels yourself though. P
Same goes for Jove and wormhole systems, which are in there, but they should be pretty obviously disconnected anyway.

System regions and coordinates — Jumps (again, hopefully with duplicates filtered out).

No, it was more intended as a continuation of your post, for those who wanted the same data but who won't/can't be arsed with fiddling with the data dump.

Thanks Tippia, I've been fiddling around with SQL Express since your last post and I haven't figured much out yet. That is perfect.

Wow what a discussion. What makes Eve special is all the people that are in the game that do this kind of thing! My thanks to you all.

Very interesting development in this thread.
I too would like to see what you come up with.

I appreciate what other map developers produce and I can see / understand the advantages of those maps. Yet, I would like to return to the original topic of the thread and express my regret that Ombey's 2D Maps are (currently) not continued.
When I go on a roam, in most cases I will open the latest Ombey's map and plan my route. Using it for many years I can even say that the picture of the EVE universe in my head is defined by Ombey's maps.

I wonder if there are more Ombey's 2D Map friends and if it would be worth to find a common way how to keep them alive and up to date.

I'm uploading a video to Youtube of what I have so far; I'll link it in a new thread when it is done. (it is quite large, so it will take awhile...)

I apologize for hijacking your thread Mik Nostrebor, but I can tell you that I am planning on creating some regional pdf maps of my own, though they will have some cool features (such as the ability to turn on/off layers such as security status, number of moons, etc...). No idea on the time frame though, this is purely a personal project because I enjoy working with the software.

For anyone interested in my project, here's a link to the video:

I created a new thread so as to not hijack this one.

Oh no, hijack away. I am loving watching the conversation. My question has been more than answered.
