I was astounded by Bill Rankin's map of Chicago's racial and ethnic divides and wanted to see what other cities looked like mapped the same way. To match his map, Red is White, Blue is Black, Green is Asian, Orange is Hispanic, Gray is Other, and each dot is 25 people. Data from Census 2000. Base map © OpenStreetMap, CC-BY-SA
Pratt Connector trail map from the Forest Service contract document.
Update 6 years later - This trail has been built and has been in use for several years now. It's a great walk and provides reasonably easy access to the Pratt Valley.

(Graptemys versa). Texas Hill Country.
The Texas Map Turtle is endemic to Texas, where it is restricted to the Colorado River and its numerous tributaries and associated waterways. It is a wonderful experience encountering one in a clear, rocky Hill Country stream.
NASA image release November 16, 2011
The science team that oversees the imaging system on board NASA’s Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) has released the highest resolution near-global topographic map of the moon ever created.
This new topographic map, from Arizona State University in Tempe, shows the surface shape and features over nearly the entire moon with a pixel scale close to 100 meters (328 feet). A single measure of elevation (one pixel) is about the size of two football fields placed side-by-side.

Metro, Subway, Tube, Underground. Different names for the same thing. Many cities have one and they all have maps so we can use them. Some are schematic, such as the London Underground Map, some are more geographically realistic, like the New York Subway Map, but they are all works of art in their own right. Now what if the cities of the world were linked by a metro system? Well that's what I've done here my with my artistic interpretation of a World Metro Map.
The design leans more towards the realistic style (New York Subway Map) rather than schematic style (London Underground Map). I felt this makes it visually appealing yet still easily recognizable.
The downside of taking the more realistic approach was evident in the dense area of Europe. It was difficult to choose the cities for this region due to the limited space available. Whilst some locations didn't make it to the finished artwork, I feel that the major historic cities of Europe are well represented.

PSP Buckeye was just south of the Breach line, with the grey line going right through for the Big Red 1, is where we were located at.
Working with the Youth Hostel Association we were asked to produce a large wall map that was to be used as part of a campaign to encourage people to explore the Dark and White Peaks.
The map would be simple and would need to depict 6 carefully selected walking, running and cycling routes and the terrain around them.
