Abstract Random map generation has application in strategy computer games, terrain simulators, and other areas. In this paper basic assumptions of a library for random maps generation are presented. It uses both value noise and diamond square computer graphics algorithms, as well as newly invented algorithms for biomes creation and river generation. Complete library implementation with an example use in a separate application is explained in detail. Basic issues related to developing programming libraries and random map generations are also discussed.
