Cartography

As far back as I can remember, I have always drawn and created maps, whether of fantastical places from my imagination or of actual locations. I am now fully trained to a national standard to create highly accurate maps, either from scratch or using GIS data.

I recreated some cartography dating from just before the First World War to show the extent of the 1914 Bristol International Exhibition, known as White City, which was only open for a few months due to the outbreak of war.

20mph Phase maps

Bristol City Council

The 20mph citywide speed limit was rolled out in phases following consultation. Each phase required mapping out showing both speed limit changes and roads with the existing limit in place, and roads which needed treatment such as street furntiure or speed humps in order to accomodate the new changes.

Surface water and flood risk maps

Flood Risk Management team

Some of the many maps, built up either using GIS layers and data, or drawn freehand that I produced for a major report covering most of the South West area on Flood Risk Management for Central Government.



5 Minute Walk Zone

Introductory leaflet and example maps

A project to map five and ten minute journeys to school. Example maps and illustrations were produced for a leaflet so that teachers could show their classes how to create map data, which would then be suitable for converting into showing walking routes on future maps produced for each shool taking part.

Anti-social Behaviour Injunction Map

Avon & Somerset Police

An extremely precise map is needed to show areas that a person may have an injunction restricting or preventing them from entering, as these are drawn up following a court decision and are geographically legally binding if challenged.
