Details
The square tile map was generated using the
tilemaps algorithm with square = TRUE,
applied to borough groups separately (Manhattan, Bronx,
Brooklyn/Queens, Staten Island), then rescaled to uniform tile size
and assembled to preserve NYC's overall geographic layout. Island
NTAs were added back using tilemaps::create_island() and positioned
to approximate their geographic locations.
