3D Map of Nottingham
Sorry if this has been posted before, and apologies for not checking if this has been posted before, but it's a bit warm and I'm fundamentally lazy.
Anyhow, I was in Central Library with my young daughter today, and when looking for the immersive projection room walking into another, where there was a thing I was immensely keen on: a 3D printed map of Nottingham (at least, most of it).
It has a projector above it so you can see various scenarios (extreme drought above, which although a fantasy scenario felt a little on the nose) and real-world ones: temperature variations, population density, tree distribution, flooding and so on.
As a fan of maps and a fan of how data can be shown with imagination and elegance, this was a delight, and it is apparently getting a larger home near the Contemporary in Autumn.
Go and have a look if you fancy. I want one of Beeston, in my house.
