This gridded cartogram uses data from the OS Complete Trig Archive (a legacy dataset) - revealing how trig pillar density relates to elevation across Great Britain.
Ever wondered what's inside a trig pillar? π‘
Built in the 1930's, these concrete pillars helped OS map Great Britain with incredible accuracy, using triangulation.
Once vital to surveying, they've now become iconic landmarks for walkers and map-lovers alike. #TrigWeek
Who knows the name of the hill where this @OrdnanceSurvey Trig pillar is?

Happy Trig Week!
On 18 April 1936 a group of surveyors gathered around a white concrete pillar in a field in Ashby and began the retriangulation of Great Britain.
That trig pillar is still standing 88 years on, along with thousands more around the country...

Considering the hills I've been up today, bit disappointed I didn't bag an @OrdnanceSurvey trig for their 88th birthday!
Did get one last Friday, though. Bit early for #trigweek, but what the hell!

@TrigThursday @OrdnanceSurvey #trigweek
Thought I'd join in with the spirit of @OrdnanceSurvey #trigweek and do a post to mark the anniversary of when the first trig pillar was installed in 1936.
This beauty is located on Diffwys in the southern Rhinogs.

Ever wondered what the inside of a trig pillar looks like? π‘
Like an iceberg, there is more below the surface than above it. This is how trig points were designed during the retriangulation of Britain. π #TrigWeek
