Find your home in Minecraft: here’s how to see your real-life city in incredible detail

Minecraft has evolved into a platform that allows users to create playable maps of real-world locations through an open-source tool called Arnis, developed by the user louis-e. This tool replicates cities, roads, and landscapes using geospatial data from OpenStreetMap, functioning on both Java and Bedrock versions of the game. Arnis is built in Rust and features a user-friendly graphical interface with a command-line mode available. Users can select a location to transform it into a Minecraft world without needing mods or advanced programming skills. The project is open-source, inviting contributions from users. Arnis effectively turns Minecraft into a "playable Google Maps," enabling exploration of real locations while adhering to the game's rules.
