Hi HN! A few friends and I built EarthToPixels, a project that turns real-world cities into explorable pixel-art maps.<p>We fine-tuned an open-source Qwen image model and built a pipeline that takes aerial imagery, generates pixel-art tiles, and keeps neighboring generations visually continuous so they can be stitched into a large map.<p>We built the pipeline to work with arbitrary coordinates rather than a specific city. For the first complete render, we chose our hometown: João Pessoa, Brazil. You can explore it here: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;earthtopixels.com&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;earthtopixels.com&#x2F;</a><p>Would love to hear what you think, especially about the technical side.
