Strip Map by Ariock Knight

July 4th, 2007 9:04 PM

INSTRUCTIONS: Create a strip map modeled on Ogilby's maps.

"A strip map is a process map, a diagram of how to go from one place to another; route and destinations are predetermined. Ordinary maps are state maps describing the whole countryside; the user decides where to go from wherever he is."

Your map should provide an intimate description of what might be seen on a journey, from a slow moving vehicle or on foot.

Be sure to examine the example image below.

This strip map is a loop around my neighborhood, and as I walked around, I looked for things that I might not notice otherwise along the way. Things that would be landmarks for another who might travel the same route.

Note that this map does not contain at least 8 of the 10 elements that are required for a map. Regarding some of the rest:

The map is not to scale. I attempted to make it to scale, but the divider I was using kept closing, foiling my attempts to mark each step along the way.
All of the lines are the same, rendering a Legend useless.
The map has no title.
I am the cartographer.
I made it today, though the data was collected a couple of weeks ago.
