Tower positions, the grid-reference rule and the map's own proportions for the three WARDOGS maps, with every value traced back to the project it was read from.
Everything here is community-measured. Bulkhead and Team17 publish the size of the battlefield and the shape of the match and have never published a location on any map, so these are the numbers a player can actually check, not official figures.
| File | What it is | What it is for |
|---|---|---|
towers.csv |
12 tower positions: 5 on Bakurani, 4 on Ozeti, 3 on Zestafona | Plot them, call them, or check your own reading against them |
open-items.csv |
19 places that did not make the cut: 8 with a single source, 11 where two sources disagree | Shows what is still unverified instead of hiding it, with both sides of every disagreement quoted |
map-grid.md |
The grid, the conversion from a project's percentages to kilometres, and the Control Zone's real proportion of the map | Do the conversion yourself, or check that ours is the same as yours |
tools/check_towers.py |
Every source measurement, and the arithmetic that turns them into towers.csv |
Reproduce the table: python3 tools/check_towers.py --check re-derives it and compares |
LICENSE |
Two licences and one boundary: MIT for the script, CC BY 4.0 for the compilation and the grid note, and a paragraph stating that the measurements belong to the four projects rather than to this repository | Know what you may take, and what has to keep its attribution |
x_km counts east from the west edge, y_km counts south from the north edge, and both
run 0 to 16 on every map. The grid reference is the 1 km cell: columns A to P west to
east, rows 1 to 16 north to south. map-grid.md has the arithmetic and the two traps in it.
Positions were accepted only where at least two of the four projects below put the same
tower in the same spot. Where only one project has published a position, the row is in
open-items.csv rather than in towers.csv.
Four projects, read on 3 October 2026, named here in plain text because they are other people's work and the links belong on their pages, not ours:
- wardogs.tools/map - tower markers in the outline plan it serves
- apollyon-sys/wardogs-calculator on GitHub - an open-source artillery and map tool, MIT
licensed, whose
maps/*.jsoncarry the markers; note that it stores game coordinates with y running north, so its y is flipped before any comparison with the others - wardogslabs.com/maps - tower entries in its page bundle
- wardogshub.gg - its own tactical layer, on the Bakurani and Ozeti pages only
wardogstools.org is deliberately not counted as a fifth source: its data block states
that its list comes from the hub and from the calculator, so it is a copy of two of the
four rather than a separate reading.
Three of the four agree to within 23 metres, which is tighter than separate surveys of the
same ground usually land, so several of them are probably working from one upstream
calibration - most likely the game's own files. None of them says so, and this repository
cannot prove it either way. Treat the project_count column as the number of places a
position is written down, not as that many witnesses.
Two licences, split on purpose, both spelled out in LICENSE. tools/check_towers.py is
MIT, so the code travels freely. towers.csv, open-items.csv and map-grid.md are
CC BY 4.0, which requires attribution: a reader should be able to follow the compilation
back to where it came from, and that is the licence that makes it stick.
One thing the licence does not do: it does not license the measurements. Those belong to the four projects named above, and this repository can only license its own layer - the selection, the cross-check, the conversion and the text. Credit them directly if you reuse the numbers, and keep the checked-on date with them, because a position read in October 2026 is a position from one build of an Early Access game.
If you would rather read these positions off a map than out of a CSV, the same 12 coordinates are plotted, with the grid reference shown as you move the pointer, on Shooter Atlas: shooteratlas.com/wardogs-map.
