create 3D-maps of your Minecraft worlds and display them in your browser

What is BlueMap
BlueMap is a server-only mod!
BlueMap is a program that reads your Minecraft world files and generates not only a map, but also 3D-models of the whole surface.
With the web-app you then can look at those in your browser and basically view the world as if you were ingame!
Or just look at it from far away to get an overview.
BlueMap comes as a Spigot/Paper or Sponge Plugin, as a Fabric or Forge-Mod and you can also use BlueMap without any Server from the Command-Line as a standalone tool.
If installed as a Plugin/Mod, BlueMap renders asynchronously to your MinecraftServer-Thread. This means at no time it will block your server-thread directly. So as long as your CPU is not fully utilized, your server should not be slowed down while BlueMap is rendering.
Using BlueMap
You can download BlueMap from here.

Metrics and Webserver
BlueMap uses an own metrics-system and is hosting a web-server!
Metrics are really useful to keep track of how the plugin is used and helps me stay motivated! Please keep them on :)
Metrics: BlueMap is sending a super small report, containing only the implementation-name and the version of the BlueMap-plugin to my server. Here is an example report:
{
"implementation": "fabric",
"version": "0.0.0"
}
This data-collection can be turned off in BlueMaps configuration! (Turned on by default)
Web-Server: The web-server is a core-functionality of this mod. So it is enabled by default but can be disabled in the config. By default the web-server is bound to all network-interfaces ('0.0.0.0') on port 8100 and is hosting the content of the ./bluemap/web/-folder.
Todo / planned features
Here is a todo-list ordered by what i right now think is the priority, but might always change or be reordered at my discretion. (I develop BlueMap in my free-time, so nothing here is a promise and there are no ETA’s)
