Is it just me who finds the #OrdnanceSurvey #map #symbols for #SolarFarms dissatisfactory? Not only are they too literal and insufficiently simplified (note #church symbols)âIâd suggest a stylised #sun alone would sufficeâbut what really gets my goat is the symbolsâ orientation, which implies that the sun shines from the north-west quarter of the #sky (which in the #Northern #Hemisphere it NEVER DOES!). #Saturday #morning #rant over! #BadDesign #Cartography #Maps #Symbology

Here's an interactive and searchable map of UK #rivers I made that bringing together #OpenData on river networks from #OrdnanceSurvey, #Sewage discharges from UK water companies & river level information from #EA #APIs. It's powered by #shiny & deployed in #shinyappsio enabled by the fantastic @posit_pbc.

âThe Hebridean Way runs for 186 miles across the length of the Outer Hebrides in the North West of #Scotland.
From the Isle of Vatersay to the Butt Of Lewis, it traverses wide open moors, white sand beaches, sea lochs, ferry crossings, and characteristic fishing towns such as Stornoway, Tarbert and Barra.
In late September 2022 I set out to solo #hike and #wildcamp its entire length. This is my story.â #ordnancesurvey with #abbiebarnes

Ben Glas, child summit to Beinn Chabhair. I set out with a vague plan of attack. The way up I took was adventurous to say the least and to be honest if I was to do it again, I'd choose another route đ. The rarity of having a whole mountain to myself albeit silently eerie is cherished.

A toughie but one of my favourite mountain days to date đ. Rhinog Fawr.
These wild mountains north of Dolgellau have some of the UKs roughest terrain and are well off any beaten path.

J'ai saignĂ© sur les donnĂ©es IGN avant que leur catalogue ne soit entiĂšrement refondu (bien mieux, mĂȘme si c'est encore rangĂ© bizarrement).
Mais je dois dire que l'IGN c'est du beurre en comparaison des services cartographiques des UK. C'est juste l'enfer de s'y retrouver. Impossible de trouver un service orthophoto en WMS/WMTS.
Je m'arrache les cheveux !

Today's train destination. Lots of highlighting I did years ago but have never checked out previously: a couple of hillforts, three Bronze Age cairns and some steep hills. Magic.

Nearly forgot, the latest #ordnancesurvey OpenData Zoomstack dataset came out last month and I still haven't imported it into #qgis yet. Better get started on that!
@WEBylines interesting piece Iâve always been fascinated by some peoplesâ idea of a fixed history. I worked at #ordnancesurvey & there is nothing like a map to stir contention in respect of meeting a required historic view. âPut Middlesex back on the mapâ - which iteration of the county would you like? âThat Scottish mountain name is anglicised make it Gaelicâ - actually itâs Norse. Many other examples available.

Anth Rowley has done a brilliant blog starting from a niche interest ( #british #ordnancesurvey benchmarks) but with links which opens up some amazing #historical stuff about the area around my home.
