Map of the Weekend-Riding the Hubway

Yesterday Boston finally caught up to Washington, DC and Minneapolis and started a bike share program - the Hubway. They have an interactive map showing the stations and availability of bicycles at each one.

 

Currently the system serves limited areas but they plan to expand it into Cambridge, Somerville and other neighborhoods in Boston. I have not had a chance to try it out yet (as I did in Montreal - see the comments section from this post) but the Boston Globe did and posted this somewhat unfair article where they raced it against the subway and a taxi. In addition to the indirect route the bicyclist took, she also needed to purchase a membership pass. I've cycled on those streets and find it hard to believe that it would take half an hour to get from the library to Bobby Orr. Anyway the graphic is well done.

If you're in town give it a ride. The streets are not ideal for cycling but it's still the best way to see a new place or get a new perspective on a familiar one.

Map of the Week - Netflix

I was going to post something more intellectual than this but today's a busy one so here's something nice and dumb- a map of what Netflix considers to be popular in your state courtesy of Slacktory.

Map of the Weekend-Sweet Mappy Dreams

The best way to end a Detroit map week is to fall asleep on a nice Detroit River Pillow from the SaltLabs.

Or you can choose from a range of other nice designs. Sweet Dreams!

Map of South Sudan

Are you looking for a map of South Sudan? South Sudan is the world`s newest country, declaring its independence from Sudan on July 9th, 2011. The cessation of South Sudan is the result of a peace agreement stemming from the long civil war between the predominantly Arab northern Sudan, and the non-Arab tribes in the south.

The total size of the South Sudan nation is 644,329 sq km. The former size of the Sudan, from which South Sudan ceded, was 2,505,813 sq km (making it the largest country in Africa at the time), so South Sudan comprised approximately 25% of the land mass of the former Sudan. Sudan nows still controls 1,861,484 sq km, making it roughly three times larger than South Sudan.

The current boundary between the two countries is a provisional one and is not set in stone. Further negotiations over territory are set to take place. In particular, the status of the region of Abyei will be the direct subject of negotations between the two countries, so this disputed region may be shifted over toe South Sudan`s soveriegnty, or the land divided between the two countries. South Sudan maps are therefore subject to change in the future.

The population of South Sudan is 8,260,490. The capital city is Juba, with a population of approximately 250,000. The country is neighboured to the east by Ethiopia; to the southeast by Kenya; to the south by Uganda; to the southwest by Democratic Republic of Congo; to the west by Central African Republic; and of course to the north by Sudan. The Nile River runs through South Sudan and into Uganda.

I hope you find the following map of South Sudan useful.

This is South Sudan.



This is a map of the current borders of Sudan, post separation.

Detroit - the Woodward Plan

There's a lot of good cartographic content on flickr. I was looking for something else on a flickr group titled The Paper Cites- Speculative and Unbuilt Structures, when I came across this image from a user who calls himself whitewall buick. It shows the "Governor and Judges' Plan" for Detroit after the1805 fire destroyed the city. This plan was based on L'Enfant's plan for Washington DC with a series of plazas and wide boulevards radiating outwards. The shaded area is what was actually implemented.

According to the poster, the remaining areas grew haphazardly because the city was not given the authority to force private landowners to subdivide their land according to the plan. Unfortunately much of the content on flickr is poorly attributed and he does not give much more information.

Here is a map the current street network (and what was ruined) from Detroit Yes! I suspect this map is a bit out of date because it does not show the Campus Martius Park (see below.)

Michigan Territory Chief Justice Augustus B. Woodward proposed a plan of hexagonal blocks with the Grand Circus as the central point.

The Campus Martius, a few blocks south of the Grand Circus, is the point of origin for Michigan's coordinate system of roads that includes the Seven and Eight Mile roads located at those distances away.

Here is a photo of the point of origin marker. Campus Martius Park has recently been redeveloped into a very popular city park with fountains, performance spaces and an ice skating rink.

South Sudan- A Work in Progress

The new Republic of South Sudan is quickly finding its way onto world maps but you may want to wait another week or two before purchasing your next wall map. Here is the new nation with it's name incorrectly specified on National Geographic's "Executive" Africa Map on my iPhone - it appears the same way on the wall map.

However, the classic map hasn't received the new nation yet.

Unless you have the iPhone app where it appears on the map but not yet in the list of countries:














 Good luck South Sudan. We'll get you on the map correctly soon-probably more quickly than any previous country.

Animated Map of Wikipedia Edits

Wikimedia Statistics produced this animated map showing edits to Wikipedia by language and location on what they refer to as a "typical day" - May 10th 2011. The animation starts at 12:15 GMT, giving it a European bias but you can move the clock ahead. I don't see an option to move the clock backwards to see more of what happens in Asia. Here is a screen shot. You can click on it to get to the animation but it may not work in some browsers.

You can also choose bubble maps or heat maps and see the distribution of edits in various languages. The background can change if you like to be distracted by gratuitous topography. I prefer the dark background. This colorful map shows the most edited language in each area.
