Do they have some sort of Minecraft version control system? Can people work on a local copy and then merge their changes into the main branch?
Minecraft is a real time multiplayer game. People build together collaboratively. Think Google Docs, not VCS.

That would be an incredibly useful tool for prototypes
Autodesk Infrastructure is used in the architecture/engineering/construction world for this sort of thing. It is essentially a prototyping tool to combine any early stage data you have (aerial surveys, a mockup 3D model for a building, etc.) with existing geospatial data. It will give you terrain, roads, and buildings to varying degrees of accuracy. https://www.autodesk.com/products/infraworks/overview?term=1...
It's pretty frustrating, because it's rare for Autodesk to consider hosting servers anywhere OTHER than America, and I wanna play with the new toys :S

I've also been meaning to play psuedo-multiplayer with my friends by us each claiming a region in a seed. Each region being 32x32 chunks and saved to a separate file (.mca), you can just drop their latest region into your world folder to see what they've been up to, or play on LAN and send it back after.
Considering the Minecraft (unmodded) resolution (that is, its lack of it), I cannot help but to look at this as a giant wasted effort... and I am writing this as someone who has seen some amazing looking creations. But, while it might be easier to do, one meter is just too large for any decent experience with a more personal "face-to-block" virtual street walk. Having it built out of 20-centimeter sided blocks (with…

nonetheless, it’s also a game that can be run on customized servers and has the capability to import objects and run scripts during gameplay, so you certainly can merge changes in a patch kind of way.
For someone whos a complete n00b to minecraft: why? Seems to me that satellites and AI could do this much faster while keeping up with the pace of change...
What AI tool out there produces 3d images from satellite imagery?
Not directly related to this project but in a similar spirit. Recently, while exploring france’s national geography department (Institut de Géographie Nationale [1]) website, I came across a page [2] which allows anybody to download a Minecraft world representing any 25km^2 area of France. The page lets you set the precise center and many other parameters such as whether to include buildings or even stylistic options…
