There has only been 6 versions for this year, and the latest one is very out of date.
Just wondering if the map will be continued by Josh at all, or not.

Who cares? The automated influence map is better in every way.

And I think this might explain why Josh hasn't updated his map: nobody reads it anymore!

There's a couple benefits to a Territorial Map in the vein of Joshua's or the short-lived Stahlregen/Kalralahr maps.
1) Superior aesthetically, particularly useful for non-Eve players or new players. 2) They can reflect the political and military situations -- who's territorially invading who in what region, for example.
The problem with Joshua's map is that he was pretty poor at the second, at least in the last year that I've been following it. It was frequently full of inaccuracies, many that lingered for entirely too long.
There's definitely still a place for a map like that, it just takes a LOT of effort to keep updated regularly, because the map itself isn't automatically generated, and because you have to keep up with what's going on beyond just sov in every single 0.0 region for it to have any value beyond the generated sov maps.

What Angelus said.
Regardless, Josh is on hiatus, his map is inconsequential by virtue of being outdated, and the automated influence map is sweet!  ---

him being very biased could also have some influence on the matter.

Josh map showed warzones and who fights who and such things, which was quite interesting. Ok, if you only care about your own conflict like Goonswarm vs. BoB, it doesn't matter.  If I want to know the details about, who has sovereignty where and the changes, the automated map is unbeatable ofc. I like it a lot. ___________ I've never been so serious as I am now. No, really. |

Like Angelus says, the manual maps like Josh's still have their uses. I quite liked the short-lived "GoonSwarm Map" when it was being made.
Maybe its time for a new map-maker to take up the profession? ------

The influence maps tell still just what it's made to tell: Influence as measured by who holds POSs and outposts and where. The political information (who's allied with who, and what areas they claim to hold besides of where their POS are) are omitted purposefully, though nowadays as the 0.0 is a tad more crowded, the influence map is pretty accurate, and can even trace wars, as long as they are wars where systems change ownership. (Paladin had this neat feature shading the area that had its sovereignty changed, I'd love to have it on one of the current maps.)

I concur, even though I have the influence map I liked Josh's map for the reasons listed above. There's no doubt that it takes a lot of labor to put that style of a map together, but I do hope someone takes up the task if Josh is going to be unable to do it. ---- AUS Corp Lead Megalomanic EVE Automated Influence Map: Keeping Down The Clone Business Since 2007AD |
