Submitted by Alec, who says: Long-time reader here with my 🔸澳洲10定位胆全天计划submission, a redesign of Atlanta🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s MARTA rail system. I🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页ve always been puzzled as to why the colors in MARTA🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s logo don🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页t reflect those of the lines. For this map, I🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页ve “rebranded” the line colors, which has the added benefit of making them easier to distinguish for those with colorblindness. I🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页ve named the lines after their unique terminals, which erases the potential confusion for tourists […]

I noticed a spike in my web stats coming from the Curbed Atlanta website over the last couple of days… so I traced them back to this interesting map of a hypothetical future Atlanta. It turns out that the hits to my site were because one commenter had volunteered the map to my “Hall of Shame”, complete with a link. Ouch.  Now, while I don’t think that the map is anywhere near awful enough to enter […]

I thought I was all done with “to scale” maps of North American rail systems, but then Dennis McClendon (see previous posts from him) sent in this beautiful series of maps that he produced for Planning magazine back in 1984. Dennis himself says: Given this week’s Tumblr theme, I thought you might be interested in these maps that I did in 1984, 🔸澳洲开奖 I worked for Planning magazine. The “new wave” of modern light rail […]

Here’s a photo from long-time correspondent Matt’ Johnson of the in-car strip map for the just-opened-yesterday Atlanta Streetcar. I sort of get a Transport for London/Tube Map vibe from it, and that’s a good thing in my eyes. Simple, clean, bold, easy to read, and it doesn’t try to over-complicate or “dress up” what is a very simple loop system. It’s not completely perfect: all the station names are left-aligned and aligned to the left […]

‘Tis the season for new 澳洲10开官网开奖 in the United States! Hot on the heels of Portland’s new MAX light rail map comes this new version for Atlanta’s rapid rail system. These photos were submitted by long-time correspondent Matt Johnson on a recent visit to Atlanta, and he notes that they are present in many of the system’s major stations. For the time being, MARTA’s website is lagging behind, still displaying an older version that’s […]

Now this I like! Part of an overall identity project for MARTA that Andrew completed, here’s his stylish revision of the system map (I reviewed the official one way, way back in October 2011, giving it a pretty generous 3 stars). The MARTA system isn’t that complex – essentially only having two intersecting trunk lines with a couple of branches – so simplifying it down and abstracting it like this works really well. The slightly […]

Obviously inspired by – and clearly credited as such – the brilliant xkcd “Subways of North America” map, here’s a quite staggeringly detailed map of pretty much every rail-based rapid transit system in North America, including future expansions and upcoming new systems like Honolulu’s HART elevated light rail. Like the xkcd map, all the systems link up at their termini to form one giant Metro map that spans the entire continent. True, the map isn’t […]

My Twitter feed and inbox are both absolutely overflowing with references to this map from the “xkcd’ web comic, so here’s a post about it! xkcd has always been a comic for geeks, and has a long history of awesome map-related work – my favourites include this Lord of the Rings movie narrative map, and the particularly carto-nerdy discussion of map projections – so it’s nice to see the strip’s attention turn to this particular facet […]

A photo from 🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划good friend, Matt🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页 Johnson, showing a very early system map (circa 1974 to 1979) for the MARTA commuter rail system in Atlanta. Compare to the current map here. Click on the source link at the bottom of the post to read Matt’s comprehensive notes over on Flickr. I’ll just note that I really like the clean, uncluttered design; especially the subtle grey background with the underlying and unlabelled road network reversed […]
