Stalingrad terrain

[Larry]

Artik, I was in the process of making this map about five years ago before my computer crashed and I lost everything for it. It was about two months ago that I found one of my old flash drives that I forgot I had a back up of the elevation and water files on. What I did with the water back then was zoom in with Google maps and screen shot a 20x20 mile section and put them together in photoshop then just trace over it to get all the water. (Took me forever) I'm sure there was an easier way but I thought that was a good idea. As for the cities I used the tiles that make up the city complex start in the MAs I just used different pieces that looked like they fit together.

Just for the record this could be done using MakeAHMap automatically:

Take a look on a clipboard map: http://cppcms.com/files/makeahmap/images/stalingrad.png

Yes, but since I found those files on the flash drive from back in 2009 all I had to do was put everything together.

Yeah, not near as many little lakes and tributaries.  Artik: did you set a minimum cutoff for water feature size or does the database your program worked from not include much wetland?  To be fair, the Google Maps data that Larry worked from does seem optimistic regarding the amount of water in the Volga wetlands if you compare map vs satellite, but your map seems to underestimate the wetlands.
