Hi everybody,
in the past weeks i've made a 3D map built by using Eddb json files shared by Themroc ( thank you ).
The map was built using the javascript library Three JS that uses WebGL.
The purpose of the map initially was to see the ED's galaxy without starting the game client, time by time thanks to some really appreciated suggestions from Eddb's I.R.C. chat and from my ED community ( DaVinci Corp ) it became a visual tool that let you travel around the galaxy collecting also some usefull informations for
your game sessions.

I hope you'll enjoy it
