Day 30: Favourite #30DayMapChallenge Favourite time of the year. Who doesn’t love Christmas right? Clare made this for her son’s school fair. You have to guess where Santa dropped his presents!

Day 22: North is not always up #30DayMapChallenge To support wayfinding, it is better to rotate the map to the way the user is facing, using landmarks to orientate themselves to the static map. In Brighton we delivered this map in several rotations to work around the hospital.
Day 22: North is not always up #30DayMapChallenge. This map shows the 3Ts Brighton Hospital, and how the map is rotated to match the orientation of the display panel matching how the user/visitor will see it on-site. This rotation helps users to navigate around the new site and find their destination. Cartography by Steer.

Day 2: Lines This map uses @railandroad data like day 1 but highlights all +50km and more than 100k annual trips. Thanks to great colour and grouping choice its easy to see the story here (that most long distance journeys originate in London, but not all) #30DayMapChallenge #rail

Painting an inset detail of the tributaries joining The Thames in Oxford, onto Thames Head sculpture collaboration with Sharon Griffin. Enormous thanks to @bcsmaps @cdlseldon for helping with mapping Thames tributaries, without which I'd probably still be tracing from OS 1:25k

It was great to have a diverse group attend our hackday earlier this week! It went really well. "Just a note to thank you and Steer for the hospitality on Tuesday. If you run it again I'll come with more insight and knowledge. I really enjoyed the day and learned a lot."
