How To Practise Interactive Vintage Maps


Today I was going to sit down downward together with write a tutorial on how I created the Mapa. The map is a 1891 map of Bogotá, Republic of Colombia overlaid amongst pop-ups containing data most some of the city's prominent politicians at the fourth dimension (mapped to their dwelling identify addresses).


The NYPL tutorial was written yesteryear Mauricio Giraldo Arteaga. By some foreign coincidence Mauricio has too been playing roughly amongst some of the same vintage maps of Lower Manhattan which I used inwards my New York Vintages Maps collection.

His ScrollNYC is a visualization of vintage New York metropolis maps from 1660 through to 1921. Each of the historical maps has been overlaid on elevation of a static Mapbox modern map of New York. As you lot scroll downward the page each static map is replaced yesteryear an older map inwards contrary chronological order.
