The UBC Minecraft Project is a project that aims to recreate the UBC Vancouver Campus inside a Minecraft world, in a 1:1 scale.
It's built by transforming LiDAR data, operational geospatial data, and various reference imagery through surface reconstruction, data processing, and deep learning algorithms. Read more about how it's done in the transformation pipeline document.
Note: This project uses submodules. If you want to clone the deep learning modules and related subprojects, please clone with git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/ashtanmistal/minecraftUBC.git If you just want to download the world, there's no need to clone the submodules.
Note: The server is currently offline. Check out the latest release for the world download.
If you're looking to check out the world on the server or to chat about the project, please see the Discord server where the IP address is shared.
If you're looking for what the world looks like after various processing steps you can check out the world/development_layers directory.
