GTA VI Mapping - May Contain Spoilers

Disclaimer: I understand that this will be a polarizing change, but the Panhandle was added due to popular speculative discussion and analysis. I want to keep this map as balanced as possible in terms of confirmed and speculative data, however there is some evidence to point at a panhandle. and I've been mulling it over for several weeks. As with all other areas of the map, when new evidence arrives, it will be changed to reflect that. v0.045 Updated the Waning Sands area based on new analysis data. Increased island size & shape to include a Northwestern Panhandle, based on much speculative analysis & evidence. Also shifted the island and grid on the map to the Southeast to accommodate new/future landmass. Fixed an alignment issue where PGH didn't fully align to the leaked map section correctly after scaling up a few times. Added speculative waterways otherwise Jason's boat is locked into a small lake/pond, which seems unrealistic. Added Sebring reference to Port Gellhorn Raceway to avoid confusion. Added more in-game names from the leak list to speculative locations across the map (Names in Purple). Added the Beacon (Seminole Theatre) to the map in Homestead. Updated the VCIA Metro station and different lines running through it, based on new evidence. Added 3800 NE Miami Ct to the map in the Stockyard area, based on new evidence. Updated Route 10 (Julia Tuttle Causeway) and surrounding area from speculation to confirmed based on new in-depth analysis. Added missing a building and shed from the leaked Hanks Watertower scene. Updated the shape of South Beach, Washington Beach and North Beach's speculative terrain to better fit with current analysis data. Added Fleeca Stadium Metro Station to the map. Added the Venetian Drawbridges and buildings. Redesigned the Overtown Interchange in line with the latest analysis. Updated speculative roads North of PGH based on new observations. Adjusted the scale and position of the Domed hills, based on new data. Added One Biscayne Tower to the map in the Downtown area based on new evidence. Made changes to speculative freeway Route 40 - removed the old un-connected road and renamed the one positioned under the Jail in Vice-Dale. Updated the Nautilus area and the speculative island landmass' and added new buildings in the area based on current evidence. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1022113353566539817/1228135027544690708/GTAMappingv0.045.png?ex=662af0e0&is=66187be0&hm=2be36db969fda0edff6812669e9255d4fac35c84e9077f9598d6812541a66d99&

Wow that'a a massive new potential chunk of land. Very impressed by all the hard work so far.  Out of curiosity, what was the speculative info that made you confident to add this extra space, genuinely interesting to know the work going on behind additions like this. Keep up the good work!

Of course Ant. Honestly, with the Panhandle it was just a couple of roadsigns with the Florida style Panhandle on. Even if they are only temp images, its still a small bit of in-game evidence. We have no other speculative data for anything that far up the map other than event data. The fact that we already speculate the Grass Rivers location with very little information, and 90% of the land borders are still speculative at this point, it seemed reasonable to add the Panhandle as a speculative border until evidence proves otherwise.
