This map is derived from the Wikipedia BlankMap-World.svg file commonly used on Wikipedia to show world views. In our case, the original map is enclosed in a locked "base map" layer, and we added stars designating our points of presence, aligned by hand.

We have considered using this utility script that allows one to add points based on a coordinates list, found in the instructions, but the script is outdated: it hasn't been ported to Python 3 and hasn't sen an update in a long time.

The map uses the Robinson projection which is not ideal because somewhat distorted, considering the limited view of the world it presents. A better view might be an orthogonal projection like this OSCE map (but Europe is somewhat compressed there) or that NATO map (but then it's NATO)...
