Generative AI in Map-Making: A Technical Exploration and Its Implications for Cartographers

This repository contains ControlNet models for generating accurate maps in controlled styles, as discussed in our paper: Generative AI in Map-Making: A Technical Exploration and Its Implications for Cartographers.

Traditional map-making often relies heavily on Geographic Information Systems (GIS), requiring domain expertise and being time-consuming. This work leverages recent advances in generative AI, specifically image diffusion models like ControlNet, to integrate vector data and guide map generation in various styles specified by textual prompts. This approach aims to automate and democratize the map-making process, enabling the creation of accurate maps with controlled spatial composition and semantic layout.
