Coming soon to
#LayersOfLondon, John Rocque's 1754 map of Middlesex, reaching much further north and west than his earlier '10-miles-round' map.

I've stitched together and am georeferencing #UniversitätBern's 4 map sheets. Easy with @qgis, but time-consuming.

#Millwall and #CanaryWharf. Two different worlds, sitting side by side.
#LayersOfLondon – so much to be seen.

#Introduction

I'm here for (among many other things) #history and #geospatial stuff, especially where they collide in #gistory. I've worked in this field for the #britishlibrary (software development and data-modelling) and #LayersOfLondon (#GIS consultancy), alongside a career as an opera and concert singer.

My PhD examined legal and political contexts of river navigation in 17th-century England, and sparked my interest in historical transport networks and economic development more generally.

Having georeferenced and stitched together for #LayersOfLondon the 41 London maps published by Strype in 1720 (see link), I'm really curious about your plans. And can you also tell us more about your weather-inference machine, please?
