I like those links. Its shows that there is some variety to come with Oklahoma for sure. Its not just open planes. Obviously the Eastern part of the stat is the transition over to woodlands as we'd sweep from West coast to East coast.

If Pavel mentioned ATS now has 30 mappers, I don't think Davido's team is in Oklahoma. At least not all of them. Oklahoma is more than likely preliminary right now. I don't think they go full production until Texas is out.

Some other map could be in full production. Possibly Oklahoma.
Texas is big, but even it has its limits.
Testing and fixing bugs, that will be a lot of work.

From what Pavel said in the Montana release stream, they are pushing most people to the Texas team so they can be done with it and move on to the next states. Even if Oklahoma is in production, as Pavel said the research team works first then the Prefab Teams and then the Mapping team comes and puts it all together. So, the mappers may be on Texas whereas the other teams are working in full swing. Also, he said that a team just came back from the US, which state do you think they went to?

Sending them to one of the Midwest states seems a bit odd as there is nothing to gain by a personal visit. Just endless fields of wheat and corn. Or maybe they went there to look if there is anything else to incorporate but I doubt it.
I think it would make more sense to send them to Louisiana or maybe Oklohoma as it got a bit more diversity.
Either way they really sould integrate tornados as it is not Oklahoma without them :)

They want to keep current detail and quality. The visits are taking picture for references as google street view not always good enough material to use.

Local vegetation references are big thing along how farms and gravel roads are setup and grid patterns used for settlement.

Oklahoma doesn't need more than 10 mappers and if it's a summer 2023 release, some are already working on the map.

It's possible that their team went all over the place, hitting bits and pieces of multiple states that they weren't sure they had enough references for. Maybe grid layouts in Kansas, the sand dunes in Nebraska, the Ouachita and Ozark mountains in OK/AR/MO, possibly the bayou and Mississippi watershed of Louisiana, etc. Stuff that is different from what they've had to do before. Heck maybe even Los Angeles. Plane tickets might have been cheaper from Europe to there compared to smaller cities, IDK how that works.
