Bicycle Touring Map

posted by admin

The Bicycle Touring Map documents my 5 years of annual bicycle touring with a group of friends.  Throughout the trips we have explored the California coast, the Pyrenees, Utah’s national parks, the English countryside and Yellowstone National Park.  The website displays the route, the elevation chart, goecoded photos, as well as geocoded videos. About:  I was originally interested in creating this map because I thought that a slide show did not quite do justice to a bicycle tour in the same way that an interactive map could.  When doing the bike tour, place becomes a very important aspect of the whole trip.  ‘How far is the next...

The Kindle Map is developed for atlas style map reading with a wifi or 3G connection.  The map is currently designed for the London St Paul Cathedral area.   About:  The Kindle Map is a project that I developed for my master’s thesis at UCL.  The concept was the brainchild of Muki Haklay who realized that the Kindle had two great advantages over other electronic map reading devices; a large screen that makes it easier to read maps, and an E ink screen that allows for much clearer visibility in strong sunlight. I designed the map specifically with the Kindle in mind.  All colors were chosen within the 16 color grey scale which is...

Berkeley Fruit Map

posted by admin

The Berkeley Fruit Map is a map which shows all the fruit trees that have fruit growing over or on public property in city of Berkeley, California.  To quote from the website:  ‘Berkeley happens to be a prime location of accessible fruit trees and we created this map to help other people enjoy the happiness of feral fruit.  And to be fair, it is doing a public service, because nobody wants to see fruit wasted.’ About:  The data for this map was gathered for the most part by my buddy Evan whom I believe did this strictly out of pure curiosity on his part.  He may have originally be inspired by sites like Fallen Fruit and Forage...
