Our 3d map of British and Irish mountains is an immersive demo of new techniques with advanced satellite imagery and filters

21 July 2022

3d interactive mountains map preview

Mapbox – our favourite dynamic mapping base system – released a new system based on Maxar satellite imagery last year, whereby geospatial developers such as us can tap into elevation and projection for satellite views layered with our own points, lines and polygons. We have experimented with the new 3d system in conjunction with our own techniques developed for listing and filtering, and come up with a rather sublime demo using data from The Database of British and Irish Hills. Open full-size dynamic mountains map Learn more about how we feed data to dynamic maps like this on the 3d mountains exploration demo page. ... Read more

Mapping the Elizabeth Line

14 July 2022

Elizabeth Line map with rail and road networks low-resolution preview

We were surprised to be contacted by quite a few people requesting a map showing the Elizabeth Line in geographical context. Like all of the UK's official free rail maps, Transport for London's map of the Elizabeth Line, available here, is meant for schematic visual clarity in route planning. It doesn't attempt to show distances or other geospatial relationship. However, for town planners, property developers, marketeers and numerous other businesspeople and public sector organisations, it is useful to see the fuller picture of the Elizabeth Line. We have made the map for such people, and we have made it editable (ideally with Adobe Illustrator) and royalty free to use. Purchase the new map on this product page: Elizabeth Line map with rail and road networks. ... Read more

Mapbox and Google Maps fees for high web traffic

30 May 2022

At Maproom we build most of our interactive web maps on a Mapbox base. We also sometimes use Google Maps as a base. Both systems have their merits and weaknesses; both charge fees for high usage; and both are in a constant state of development and competition with each other and the smaller players on the dynamic mapping scene. Here's a current comparison of Mapbox and Google Maps. SystemProsConsMapbox - used to power reference maps in our Dynamic Mapping SuiteFar more customisable than Google MapsCheaper than Google Maps for high trafficVarious ways to handle large data feedsNo StreetviewMediocre searchNot the highest resolution for satellite mapsGoogle Maps - used by us for some bespoke dynamic maps requiring Streetview or the highest resolution satellite imagery of LondonStreetview and the best search of all mapping systemsCompletely unable to handle advance styling or large data feeds Usage All web maps built with Mapbox and Google Maps are metered for usage.

The Dulwich Estate goes live with a public swipe-comparison map we built for them

27 May 2022

Dulwich Estate swipe map preview

Much of our interactive mapping work commissioned by clients is private – intended for an organisation's internal use and therefore not available to show off as our work. However, one of the interactive maps we have built for The Dulwich Estate in south London is now displayed publicly on their website. A deep-zoom swipe map, it is intended to show thousands of Dulwich residents which properties and land is covered by The Dulwich Estate's Scheme of Management. You can view the map embedded on their website here or the full-size version here. ... Read more
