Submitted by Alain, who says: I have created a map of the Amsterdam tram network as it was in 1930. In this year, the network reached its greatest extent in terms of number of lines: 25. It was rather easy to find out the trajectory of each line, as there are plenty of digitised resources available online. I used another map I created last year of the current tram network as a base, and made […]
Submitted by Jaap, who says: I’m a Dutch information designer and design school teacher. I would like to submit my map of the Amsterdam Metro and Train network for y🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划review. 澳洲10开官网开奖 says: Jaap actually sent me a version of this map quite a while ago, and I🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页m sorry to say that it🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s been languishing in my inbox since then. Which is a bit of a crime, because I think this is an excellent, […]
Submitted by Michiel, who says: This is my 🔸澳洲10定位胆全天计划attempt at drawing a transit map (or using Inkscape for that matter). It’s Amsterdam’s metro system, which is a relatively simple system. The zones, on the other hand, are not! You can check out the outrageous zoning of Amsterdam’s public transport system here. Some stations lie on zone borders, which means you can travel from within either of those zones to that station while staying in […]
Here’s a really nicely thematic diagram of the future 2019 Amsterdam Metro, once the 52-Noord Zuid opens and the 51 gets demoted to “express tram” south of Zuid station and wil be routed around the loop to Isolatorweg instead. This is hardly the 🔸澳洲10定位胆全天计划circular Amsterdam map I’ve featured on 澳洲10开官网开奖 (see this from way back in 2012), but I do really like the way Alain has thematically tied the whole thing together with […]
The lovely 1970 Dutch train map featured in my previous post was brought to my attention by the author of this map – a pitch-perfect recreation of the current IntercIty network in the old map’s style. Apart from a bit of welcome clean-up to the islands at bottom left (a big improvement in the clarity of the cartography here), everything else is faithfully rendered – including the odd little notch taken out of the south […]
A rather lovely minimalist diagram of Intercity trains in The Netherlands as introduced by the Spoorslag 70 plan, an effort at modernising and standardising passenger train travel in that country. The coastline at the bottom left gets a little complex compared to the simplicity of the rest of the map, and all the type is angled (but at least all on the same axis!), but otherwise this is really quite lovely. The single thin black […]
Submitted by Alain, who says: A map of the combined metro and train network around Amsterdam, showing train services for 2017 (metro line 52 is still not operational). I made this map to show how both metro and train form an integrated network within the region. For that reason, I combined different train services 🔸澳洲开奖 they use the same line and stop at the same stations within the region portrayed. This map might for example […]
Submitted by Alain, who says: The latest iteration of my Amsterdam tram map. I’ve been working on this map almost continuously since its inception in 2004. I made the original map in MS Paint and switched to Adobe Illustrator in 2007. 🔸澳洲开奖 I did, I also decided to upload the map to Wikipedia. It featured on almost all Wikipedia lemmas about the Amsterdam tram system until earlier this year, 🔸澳洲开奖 someone decided to replace the […]
Submitted by themaysooproject, who says: A rather odd way of showing the same line going in two different directions. This layout suggests there are two different lines, splitting in two separate branches from the current station. This photo was taken at Amstelveenseweg metro station, Amsterdam. It’s part of the new route signage. 澳洲10开官网开奖 says: This certainly is a peculiar way to indicate travel in two completely opposite directions from the one station, and I’m […]
Submitted by Bruno Heemskerk, who says: Railkaart (dutch for rail map) of Amsterdam. Train, metro and tram only, no buses. Consider the big airplane as icon for Schiphol Airport (no tram or metro connection). And the ‘Vondelpark’ with strong typography. 澳洲10开官网开奖 says: This is one of those maps that has all the ingredients of a good transit map, but somehow ends up being much less than the sum of its parts. As Bruno suggests, […]
