Hi all!
A long overdue announcement that we'll be winding down our activity here. It was great while it was great, then not.
You can find us as @ohmap over at the blewe skye app. Not sure if they're filtering links, so DM if you need the direct link.
Best wishes, OHM
๐With just a few lines of code, you can now overlay historic maps on a @LeafletJS map with the new Allmaps plugin. See https://t.co/gokdS7ILoH to try it outโผ๏ธ
Fantastic new book by @lostsubways has arrived chock full of great original maps of transit systems as they might have been if plans & decisions were different. An atlas of what could have been if the US was weaned off its obsession with the car.

@sixteenthCgirl Like @docuracy, @ViaeRegiae, and many other fantastic projects noted on this thread, @OpenHistMap is trying to help compile and crowdsource data from a wide variety of sources into a map format. Is there a particular time & place you have in mind?
