I would like to create a realistic map of a fantasy world to have an overview over the world. Now I search for a suitable editor to draw the map from scratch.
One of my continents starts at the South Pole and runs to the equator. So I search for an editor where I can draw the map on a sphere and don't need to care about stretching at the pole region. I also want to draw contour lines for mountains and be able to draw towns with streets and maybe houses.
I already tried Open Street Map / JOSM and this is almost what I am looking for. The only missing things are a "round" pole region and contour lines. Is it possible to change the view there and enable contour lines or is there another editor which would fit my conditions?
I would also like to work with a world or continent generator which creates whole continents with mountains, rivers, lakes, islands, woods, deserts and so on, but I haven't found anything like that. The result should be exportable to other editors to create towns and streets later and change parts of the surface.
The editors should be freeware.
