Where the animals go...

One for a late order for a Christmas present.

Where the animals go is the latest book which features the work of James Cheshire and Oliver Uberti, who produced the infographic guide to London called 'The Information Capital', which sits on the shelves of my GeoLibrary.
This one explores some of the data and patterns revealed by tracking devices placed on animal species by researchers.

Speaking of late ordering of Christmas presents, I've just followed a DPD delivery driver bringing a much needed ink cartridge to me via the parcel tracking system which allowed me to follow him through 30 other deliveries before he got to me... bang on time.

Mapping London

The Mapping London website is curated by Ollie O' Brien and James Cheshire from CASA at UCL.

It contains a treasure trove of wonderful mapping of the capital both ancient and modern.

There is a cool London Blitz Map, and one of my favourites: the STAMEN watercolour palette for maps.
For example, here's a location where I'll be spending Wednesday and Thursday - can you name it ?



Mapping London's Surnames

Another excellent map from the prolific James Cheshire looks at the distribution of surnames in London.
Available to view at the SPATIAL ANALYSIS blog.

Lovely to see so many interesting maps being made available to geographers, in addition to the 'usual' ones...
