Texel Density for Atlas textures - I just don't get it

I am an architectural designer moving onto 3D Environmental Design. Any advice? What to expect?
Long story short, one degree and 2 years of professional experience later, I am going to move away from my architectural designer job and will study a different career path that will give me more creative opportunities in the workplace.

But now I want to make something that will be the main part of my map and I'm just having trouble figuring how people make large stuff like this.

Re: how can i get a light to follow?
