# La Vega: An Isometric Map of the Market

La Vega: An Isometric Map of the Market: a project by Alexander Frings (2026), in the Software and tools family.

Santiago's Mercado La Vega Central as an interactive isometric map: you fly over it, click a stall and get its name, trade, typical produce and hours. The 555 stalls are generated procedurally and drawn in SVG. The app works; the real data for each stall is still to come.
