at the 4points hotel in norwood yesterday there was a conference on disabillities and one of the informational 'booths' that was set up had this on its table. i wish my arms had been longer so i could have gotten more of this very creative rendering of how to get around on the MBTA on the different colored subway lines. the cards are printed in braille too :)

(MBTA = massachusetts bay transportation authority)

 

can not find the name of the person who created this but i am not going to give up!!!

Uses attribute table and the "Create Indexed Vector Grid" plugin what I wrote. Going to have to re-write this for QGIS3 and for Processing framework.. and allow fixed size cells (the grid cells were meant to be 10km x 10km but are more like 8.5km x 8.5km)

My son loves maps, so and old embroidered map of Denmark was cut apart and sewn together with some vintage fabric to create 3 pillows for his bed. He loves them !

A new version of the tube map is up in some stations - i saw this example at Warren Street. It doesn't seem to be online yet. You probably want to look at the full-resolution version, which for non-Flickrites is here:

The main change is that the East London Line has vanished, replaced by lines corresponding to the replacement bus routes, as the stretch to Shoreditch was when it closed. Seems weird to have bus routes on the tube map; it wasn't so bad when it was just a little stub on a tube line, but now the whole line is bustituted! The way they show the under construction bits is interesting. The northern bit remains separate from the existing bit of the Overground between Dalston and Highbury & Islington; this accurately reflects the track layout and service pattern, but not the fact that the routes will be branded as part of the same line (won't they?). The southern bit is shown as being under construction (ish) despite the fact that it's actually an existing NR route, and so there's a sheepish explanatory note. It's also shown as terminating at New Cross Gate, rather than running into the line, as it will, or off towards London Bridge, as it does now.

 

Also of note are what they've done at a couple of major stations out in zone 2. At Willesden Junction, the arrangement of the Overground lines has been subtly changed so that it no longer suggests that there are through trains from Clapham Junction to Stratford (which, barring four freak trains a day, there aren't). At Canary Wharf, the Jubilee and DLR stations have been split apart, and the walking distance between the Jubilee station and both Canary Wharf and Heron Quays DLR stations has been added - this is useful, because the latter is actually closer. It'll be interesting to see if this notation turns up at other pairs of nearby stations, something that we map loonies have been clamouring for for ages.

 

I took this in failing light, without a flash, so it looked pretty crappy; i boosted the contrast to make it a bit clearer; which has also made it look a bit unnatural, apologies. My new camera also seems to have surprisingly bad image quality, which doesn't help.

Here is what she looks like closed up.

Travel-time Maps from mySociety

 

"These are much more complicated questions than those about individual journeys, but one thing they all have in common is transport: can I get to and from the places I'm considering quickly and easily?"

 

The maps on this page show one way of answering that question. Using colours and contour lines they show how long it takes to travel between one particular place and every other place in the area, using public transport. They also show the areas from which no such journey is possible, because the services are not good enough."

The topo maps were leftovers from my dissertation field work in geology in the early 1980's.

Here is another image I discovered on GOOGLE Maps that I had to visit in person. This is the Kar Parts Recycling Center located right off of Hwy 11, near Inman, South Carolina. They had a lot more cars and trucks in the back of the property which was well worth photographing. I did manage to get a few shots while I was there.

If I got stuck on an island, I would probably get lost. I can get lost anywhere.

The Recovery Model as it applies to mental health is an approach to mental disorder or substance dependence (and/or from being labeled in those terms) that emphasizes and supports each individual's potential for recovery. Recovery is seen within the model as a personal journey, that may involve developing hope, a secure base and sense of self, supportive relationships, empowerment, social inclusion, coping skills, and meaning. Originating from the 12-Step Program of Alcoholics Anonymous and the Civil Rights Movement, the use of the concept in mental health emerged as deinstitutionalization resulted in more individuals living in the community. It gained impetus due to a perceived failure by services or wider society to adequately support social inclusion, and by studies demonstrating that many can recover.

This map was hanging inside the Hospital lobby, It shows all the aboriginal names and areas around Australia.

I've been working over the last couple of months on this map of Dundee's botanic gardens. It was quite tricky as the weather had changed so radically by the time I got to adding the colour. Luckily I had got quite a few reference shots just before autumn.

 

It was good fun doing this project, would definitely be up for doing more illustrative maps.

In my spare time, apart from poking around falling down old buildings, I also make maps. This is one of my better ones.

My Taiwan adventure began with an email from my Chinese wildlife artist friend Anderson Yang:

 

August 31, 2010

 

Dear John:

 

I would like to invite you to an exclusive field survey of forests and wetlands in Taiwan. The survey will take place from November 10th to December 3rd, 2010. There will also be a seminar and workshop with the theme of “Dialogue between art and nature” on December 4th and 5th. We look forward to seeing you here and are eager to know of your creative experience inspired by nature.

 

Sincerely yours,

 

Anderson Yang

associate professor-Taiwan Normal University

 

This map shows the itinerary of the field survey which included visits to national parks and nature areas throughout Taiwan. It didn't take long for me to accept my friend's invitation. In coming days I will be posting some images from my trip to Taiwan.
