I've been mapping the LOST island ever since the show began in 2004.
It all started when ABC & TPTB decided to show a map of the island while Sayid was being held captive by Danielle in the episode "Solitary"
I turned that map into an overhead map of my own, correcting the perspective in Adobe Photoshop, eventually creating a heightmap which allowed me to add depth to the island in programs like Bryce by Daz3d & Maya by Autodesk.
This was one of my first renders of the LOST island in 3D.
It was the first time the fans of LOST would "see" this fictional island in totality.

THE MISSING ISLETS
THE HYDRA, PREDICTED
While mapping the island back in 2005, I noticed one of the maps showing an islet with the triangle, could be placed with the main map
It was here where I speculated the "others" were.
The thread was called "THE MISSING ISLETS"

THE SIDE VIEW PROBLEM
I encountered a problem when merging the maps together in 3D
The side view map of the island not match with the top view.
so I showed the forums and possibly TPTB, the problem.
Two years later, we see a shot of the island, taken from the HYDRA...
and the shot TOTALLY matches my earlier estimate of how things would have looked.
I had predicted the placement of the Hydra in relation to the island, as well as its use as some form of base-camp for the others.
