Vancouver Island is getting a new map! It's a work-in-progress but the key word is "progress!"

Please RT so the fine folks on the island can hear about the map. Thanks!

Canadian excellence: if you're after a wall/trail map of British Columbia, you need to see @ClarkGeomatics

He just released the 3x2 ft. "Essential Geography of Vancouver Island," all printed and inspected by the author.

Time to scroll around the most beautiful map ever made: the 1739 "Plan de Turgot," commissioned by the chief merchant of Paris.

Every mark was originally engraved into brass plates and the detail is insane, like examining an 8x10 ft. banknote.

Getting ready to publish a new #map for Garibaldi Park, BC. If you've hiked this beautiful park, this is a great memento. 24" x 36" - for your wall!

Maps by Dave Imus, one of the best living reference cartographers.

His 4x6 ft. “Essential Geography of the United States” took six years of daily work to finish and his relief maps are just 🤌

“Handmade maps in the digital world” is my bailiwick, here are 23 modern map artisans:

@ClarkGeomatics Jeff Clark completed a 100-layer 18-month project to map the Salish Sea.

@MtnMapper Tom Patterson spent decades mapping for the National Park Service, still releases a banger map every few months AND releases his design files to the public domain.

@DonatasBruzas Donatas Bružas is working on an engraving-style 3 ft. globe, makes custom typefaces and the most beautiful computer-mediated hachures you’ve ever seen.

@JapanMapping Markus Hauser, trained in Switzerland with decades of experience, makes the best trail maps of Japanese wilderness.

@FleischerHannes Hannes Fleischer wanted an old-school pen plotter map, so he lathed and milled his own parts to build the plotter, wrote custom scripts to turn DEMs into hachures, and designed the map with turfjs.

The Great Fire of London – 1666 CE | Affected area in modern-day London. Made in Blender based on the area in ruines mapped by Leake & Leybourne (1667) and Google's photoreal 3D Tiles. I loved making this. London TimeOut even wrote about it:

Marine Le Breton draws swirling pen maps of France’s coastal areas and islands; you rarely see a map where the water gets as much ink as the land.

Nautical love letters with towns, roads, marshes, tidal flats, creeks, bays, inlets, piers.

Margaret River, Australia cartographer Grant Preller walks the coast, surfs the breaks, then uses Google Earth, 1890s coastline maps, 1:50k topos, a pencil and CorelDraw to create 8-foot-wide maps that show where to catch a sick barrel 🤙
