+## Generation info
+The script will generate the `generation_info.json` file in the `output` folder. It splitted to the different sections, which represents the components of the map generator. You may need this information to use some other tools and services to obtain additional data for your map.<br>
+
+List of components:
+- `Config` - this component handles the `map.xml` file, where the basic description of the map is stored.
+- `Texture` -  this component describes the textures, that were used to generate the map.
+- `DEM` - this component describes the Digital Elevation Model (the one which creates terrain on your map), which was used to generate the height map and related to the `dem.png` file.
+- `I3d` - this component describes the i3d file, where some specific attributes properties and path to the files are stored.
+- `Background` - this component describes the 8 tiles, that surround the map.
+
+Below you'll find descriptions of the components and the fields that they contain.<br>
+ℹ️ If there's no information about the component, it means that at the moment it does not store any data in the `generation_info.json` file.
+
+### Texture

+### Background
+
+The background component consist of the 8 tiles, each one represents the tile, that surrounds the map. The tiles are named as the cardinal points, e.g. "N", "NE", "E" and so on.<br>

+
+## Texture schema
+maps4fs uses a simple JSON file to define the texture schema. For each of supported games this file has unique entries, but the structure is the same. Here's an example of the schema for Farming Simulator 25:
+
+```json
+[
+    {
+    "name": "forestRockRoots",
+    "count": 2,
+    "exclude_weight": true
+  },
+  {
+    "name": "grass",
+    "count": 2,
+    "tags": { "natural": "grassland" },
+    "color": [34, 255, 34],
+    "priority": 0
+  },
+  {
+    "name": "grassClovers",
+    "count": 2
+  },
+  {
+    "name": "grassCut",
+    "count": 2
+  },
+  {
+    "name": "grassDirtPatchy",
+    "count": 2,
+    "tags": { "natural": ["wood", "tree_row"] },
+    "width": 2,
+    "color": [0, 252, 124]
+  }
+]
+```
+Let's have a closer look at the fields:
+- `name` - the name of the texture. Just the way the file will be named.
+- `count` - the number of textures of this type. For example, for the **dirtMedium** texture there will be two textures: **dirtMedium01_weight.png** and **dirtMedium02_weight.png**.
+ℹ️ There's one texture that have count `0`, it's the waterPuddle texture from FS22, which not present in FS25.
+- `tags` - the tags from the OpenStreetMap data. Refer to the section [Supported objects](#supported-objects) to see the list of supported tags. If there are no tags, the texture file will be generated empty and no objects will be placed on it.
+- `width` - the width of the texture in meters. Some of the objects from OSM (roads, for example) are lines, not areas. So, to draw them correctly, the tool needs to know the width of the line.
+- `color` - the color of the texture. It's used only in the preview images and have no effect on the map itself. But remember that previews are crucial for the map making process, so it's better to set the color to something that represents the texture.
+- `priority` - the priority of the texture for overlapping. Textures with higher priorities will be drawn over the textures with lower priorities.
+ℹ️ The texture with 0 priority considers the base layer, which means that all empty areas will be filled with this texture.
+- `exclude_weight` - this only used for the forestRockRoots texture from FS25. It's just means that this texture has no `weight` postfix, that's all.
+
+## Background terrain
+The tool now supports the generation of the background terrain. If you don't know what it is, here's a brief explanation. The background terrain is the world around the map. It's important to create it, because if you don't, the map will look like it's floating in the void. The background terrain is a simple plane which can (and should) be texture to look fine.<br>
+So, the tool generates the background terrain in the form of the 8 tiles, which surround the map. The tiles are named as the cardinal points, e.g. "N", "NE", "E" and so on. All those tiles will be saved in the `objects/tiles` directory with corresponding names: `N.obj`, `NE.obj`, `E.obj` and so on.<br>
+If you're willing to create a background terrain, you will need: Blender, the Blender Exporter Plugins and the QGIS. You'll find the download links in the [Resources](#resources) section.<br>
+
+If you're afraid of this task, please don't be. It's really simple and I've prepaired detailed step-by-step instructions for you, you'll find them in the separate README files. Here are the steps you need to follow:
+
+1. [Download high-resolution satellite images](README_satellite_images.md).
+2. [Prepare the i3d files](README_i3d.md).
+3. [Import the i3d files to Giants Editor](README_giants_editor.md).

+There are several ways to use the tool. You obviously need the **first one**, but you can choose any of the others depending on your needs.<br>
+### 🚜 For most users
+**Option 1:** open the [maps4fs](https://maps4fs.streamlit.app) on StreamLit and generate a map template in a few clicks.<br>
+
+### 😎 For advanced users
+**Option 2:** run the Docker version in your browser. Launch the following command in your terminal:
+```bash
+docker run -d -p 8501:8501 iwatkot/maps4fs
+```
+And open [http://localhost:8501](http://localhost:8501) in your browser.<br>
+If you don't know how to use Docker, navigate to the [Docker version](#option-2-docker-version), it's really simple.<br>
+
+### 🤯 For developers
+**Option 3:** Python package. Install the package using the following command:
+```bash
+pip install maps4fs
+```
+And refer to the [Python package](#option-3-python-package) section to learn how to use it.<br>
+
+## Overview
+The core idea is coming from the awesome [maps4cim](https://github.com/klamann/maps4cim) project.<br>
+
+The main goal of this project is to generate map templates, based on real-world data, for the Farming Simulator. It's important to mention that **templates are not maps**. They are just a starting point for creating a map. This tool just uses built-in textures to highlight different types of terrain and buildings with correct shapes and scales and to generate a height map. The rest of the work is up to you. So if you thought that you could just run this tool and get a playable map, then I'm sorry to disappoint you. But if you are a map maker, then this tool will save you a lot of time.<br>
+So, if you're new to map making, here's a quick overview of the process:
+1. Generate a map template using this tool.
+2. Download the Giants Editor.
+3. Open the map template in the Giants Editor.
+4. Now you can start creating your map (adding roads, fields, buildings, etc.).
+
+### Previews
+
+The generator also creates a multiple previews of the map. Here's the list of them:
+1. General preview - merging all the layers into one image with different colors.
+2. Grayscale DEM preview - a grayscale image of the height map (as it is).
+3. Colored DEM preview - a colored image of the height map (from blue to red). The blue color represents the lowest point, and the red color represents the highest point.

+
+### Option 1: StreamLit
+🟢 Recommended for all users, you don't need to install anything.<br>
+Using the [StreamLit](https://maps4fs.streamlit.app) version of the tool is the easiest way to generate a map template. Just open the link and follow the instructions.
+Note: due to CPU and RAM limitations of the hosting, the generation may take some time. If you need faster processing, use the [Docker version](#option-2-docker-version).<br>
+
+Using it is easy and doesn't require any guides. Enjoy!
+
+### Option 2: Docker version
+🟠 Recommended for users who want faster processing, very simple installation.<br>
+You can launch the project with minimalistic UI in your browser using Docker. Follow these steps:
+
+1. Install [Docker](https://docs.docker.com/get-docker/) for your OS.
+2. Run the following command in your terminal:
+```bash
+docker run -d -p 8501:8501 iwatkot/maps4fs
+```
+3. Open your browser and go to [http://localhost:8501](http://localhost:8501).
+4. Fill in the required fields and click on the `Generate` button.
+5. When the map is generated click on the `Download` button to get the map.
+
+![Basic WebUI](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/14620044-9e92-47ae-8531-d61460740f58)
+
+### Option 3: Python package
+🔴 Recommended for developers.<br>
+You can use the Python package to generate maps. Follow these steps:
+
+1. Install the package from PyPI:
+```bash
+pip install maps4fs
+```
+2. Import the Game class and create an instance of it:
+```python
+import maps4fs as mfs
+
+game = mfs.Game.from_code("FS25")
+```
+In this case the library will use the default templates, which should be present in the `data` directory, which should be placed in the current working directory.<br>
+Structure example:<br>
+
+```text
+📁 data
+ ┣ 📄 fs22-map-template.zip
+ ┗ 📄 fs22-texture-schema.json
+```

+So it's recommended to download the `data` directory from the repository and place it in the root of your project.<br>
+
+3. Create an instance of the Map class:
+```python
+import maps4fs as mfs
+
+map = mfs.Map(
+  game,
+  (52.5200, 13.4050),  # Latitude and longitude of the map center.
+  height=1024,  # The height of the map in meters.
+  width=1024,  # The width of the map in meters.
+  map_directory="path/to/your/map/directory",  # The directory where the map will be saved.
+)
+```
+
+4. Generate the map:
+The `generate` method returns a generator, which yields the active component of the map. You can use it to track the progress of the generation process.
+```python
+for active_component in map.generate():
+    print(active_component)
+```
+
+The map will be saved in the `map_directory` directory.
+
+## Supported objects
+The project is based on the [OpenStreetMap](https://www.openstreetmap.org/) data. So, refer to [this page](https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Map_Features) to understand the list below.
+- "building": True
+- "highway": ["motorway", "trunk", "primary"]
+- "highway": ["secondary", "tertiary", "road", "service"]
+- "highway": ["unclassified", "residential", "track"]
+- "natural": ["grassland", "scrub"]
+- "landuse": "farmland"
+- "natural": ["water"]
+- "waterway": True
+- "natural": ["wood", "tree_row"]
+- "railway": True
+
+The list will be updated as the project develops.
+
+## Generation info
+The script will generate the `generation_info.json` file in the `output` folder. It splitted to the different sections, which represents the components of the map generator. You may need this information to use some other tools and services to obtain additional data for your map.<br>
+
+List of components:
+- `Config` - this component handles the `map.xml` file, where the basic description of the map is stored.
+- `Texture` -  this component describes the textures, that were used to generate the map.
+- `DEM` - this component describes the Digital Elevation Model (the one which creates terrain on your map), which was used to generate the height map and related to the `dem.png` file.
+- `I3d` - this component describes the i3d file, where some specific attributes properties and path to the files are stored.
+- `Background` - this component describes the 8 tiles, that surround the map.
+
+Below you'll find descriptions of the components and the fields that they contain.<br>
+ℹ️ If there's no information about the component, it means that at the moment it does not store any data in the `generation_info.json` file.
+
+### Texture
+
+Example of the `Texture` component:
+```json
+"Texture": {
+    "coordinates": [
+        45.28571409289627,
+        20.237433441210115
+    ],
+    "bbox": [
+        45.29492313313172,
+        45.27650505266082,

+    "width_coef": 1.011863185889979
+},
+```
+
+And here's the list of the fields:
+
+- `"coordinates"` - the coordinates of the map center which you entered,<br>
+- `"bbox"` - the bounding box of the map in lat and lon,<br>
+- `"map_height"` - the height of the map in meters (this one is from the user input, e.g. 2048 and so on),<br>

+- `"maximum_x"` - the maximum x coordinate of the map (UTM projection),<br>
+- `"maximum_y"` - the maximum y coordinate of the map (UTM projection),<br>
+- `"height"` - the height of the map in meters (it won't be equal to the parameters above since the Earth is not flat, sorry flat-earthers),<br>
+- `"width"` - the width of the map in meters (same as above),<br>
+- `"height_coef"` - since we need a texture of exact size, the height of the map is multiplied by this coefficient,<br>
+- `"width_coef"` - same as above but for the width,<br>
+- `"tile_name"` - the name of the SRTM tile which was used to generate the height map, e.g. "N52E013"<br>
+
+### Background
+
+The background component consist of the 8 tiles, each one represents the tile, that surrounds the map. The tiles are named as the cardinal points, e.g. "N", "NE", "E" and so on.<br>
+Example of the `Background` component:
+
+```json
+"Background": {
+"N": {
+    "center_latitude": 45.30414170952092,
+    "center_longitude": 20.237433441210115,
+    "epsg3857_string": "2251363.25324853,2254278.318028022,5668072.719985372,5670987.784803056 [EPSG:3857]",

+
+## Texture schema
+maps4fs uses a simple JSON file to define the texture schema. For each of supported games this file has unique entries, but the structure is the same. Here's an example of the schema for Farming Simulator 25:
+
+```json
+[
+    {
+    "name": "forestRockRoots",
+    "count": 2,
+    "exclude_weight": true
+  },
+  {
+    "name": "grass",
+    "count": 2,
+    "tags": { "natural": "grassland" },
+    "color": [34, 255, 34],
+    "priority": 0
+  },
+  {
+    "name": "grassClovers",
+    "count": 2
+  },
+  {
+    "name": "grassCut",
+    "count": 2
+  },
+  {
+    "name": "grassDirtPatchy",
+    "count": 2,
+    "tags": { "natural": ["wood", "tree_row"] },
+    "width": 2,
+    "color": [0, 252, 124]
+  }
+]
+```
+Let's have a closer look at the fields:
+- `name` - the name of the texture. Just the way the file will be named.
+- `count` - the number of textures of this type. For example, for the **dirtMedium** texture there will be two textures: **dirtMedium01_weight.png** and **dirtMedium02_weight.png**.
+ℹ️ There's one texture that have count `0`, it's the waterPuddle texture from FS22, which not present in FS25.
+- `tags` - the tags from the OpenStreetMap data. Refer to the section [Supported objects](#supported-objects) to see the list of supported tags. If there are no tags, the texture file will be generated empty and no objects will be placed on it.
+- `width` - the width of the texture in meters. Some of the objects from OSM (roads, for example) are lines, not areas. So, to draw them correctly, the tool needs to know the width of the line.
+- `color` - the color of the texture. It's used only in the preview images and have no effect on the map itself. But remember that previews are crucial for the map making process, so it's better to set the color to something that represents the texture.
+- `priority` - the priority of the texture for overlapping. Textures with higher priorities will be drawn over the textures with lower priorities.
+ℹ️ The texture with 0 priority considers the base layer, which means that all empty areas will be filled with this texture.
+- `exclude_weight` - this only used for the forestRockRoots texture from FS25. It's just means that this texture has no `weight` postfix, that's all.
+
+## Background terrain
+The tool now supports the generation of the background terrain. If you don't know what it is, here's a brief explanation. The background terrain is the world around the map. It's important to create it, because if you don't, the map will look like it's floating in the void. The background terrain is a simple plane which can (and should) be texture to look fine.<br>
+So, the tool generates the background terrain in the form of the 8 tiles, which surround the map. The tiles are named as the cardinal points, e.g. "N", "NE", "E" and so on. All those tiles will be saved in the `objects/tiles` directory with corresponding names: `N.obj`, `NE.obj`, `E.obj` and so on.<br>
+If you're willing to create a background terrain, you will need: Blender, the Blender Exporter Plugins and the QGIS. You'll find the download links in the [Resources](#resources) section.<br>
+
+If you're afraid of this task, please don't be. It's really simple and I've prepaired detailed step-by-step instructions for you, you'll find them in the separate README files. Here are the steps you need to follow:
+
+1. [Download high-resolution satellite images](README_satellite_images.md).
+2. [Prepare the i3d files](README_i3d.md).
+3. [Import the i3d files to Giants Editor](README_giants_editor.md).
+
+## For advanced users
+The tool supports the custom size of the map. To use this feature select `Custom` in the `Map size` dropdown and enter the desired size. The tool will generate a map with the size you entered.<br>
+
+⛔️ Do not use this feature, if you don't know what you're doing. In most cases the Giants Editor will just crash on opening the file, because you need to enter a specific values for the map size.<br><br>
+
+![Advanced settings](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/0446cdf2-f093-49ba-ba8f-9bef18a58b47)
+
+You can also apply some advanced settings to the map generation process. Note that they're ADVANCED, so you don't need to use them if you're not sure what they do.<br>
+
+Here's the list of the advanced settings:
+
+- DEM multiplier: the height of the map is multiplied by this value. So the DEM map is just a 16-bit grayscale image, which means that the maximum avaiable value there is 65535, while the actual difference between the deepest and the highest point on Earth is about 20 km. So, by default this value is set to 3. Just note that this setting mostly does not matter, because you can always adjust it in the Giants Editor, learn more about the [heightScale](https://www.farming-simulator.org/19/terrain-heightscale.php) parameter on the [PMC Farming Simulator](https://www.farming-simulator.org/) website.
+
+- DEM Blur radius: the radius of the Gaussian blur filter applied to the DEM map. By default, it's set to 21. This filter just makes the DEM map smoother, so the height transitions will be more natural. You can set it to 1 to disable the filter, but it will result as a Minecraft-like map.
+
+## Resources
+In this section you'll find a list of the resources that you need to create a map for the Farming Simulator.<br>
+To create a basic map, you only need the Giants Editor. But if you want to create a background terrain - the world around the map, so it won't look like it's floating in the void - you also need Blender and the Blender Exporter Plugins. To create realistic textures for the background terrain, the QGIS is required to obtain high-resolution satellite images.<br>
+
+1. [Giants Editor](https://gdn.giants-software.com/downloads.php) - the official tool for creating maps for the Farming Simulator.
+2. [Blender](https://www.blender.org/download/) - the open-source 3D modeling software that you can use to create models for the Farming Simulator.
+3. [Blender Exporter Plugins](https://gdn.giants-software.com/downloads.php) - the official plugins for exporting models from Blender to i3d format (the format used in the Farming Simulator).
+4. [QGIS](https://qgis.org/download/) - the open-source GIS software that you can use to obtain high-resolution satellite images for your map.
