Urban and municipal transport from OpenStreetMaps in Bulgaria

Introducing bike routes in OpenStreetMaps, I noticed that very rarely on village roads and municipal roads exist relations for bus lines of urban and municipal transport.

A map of the spread of Roma in Bulgaria

Working on the ethnic backgrounds in Bulgaria, I decided to make a new map to represent where and how many Roma live in the country. I was curious about why 5% of the population is such a “problem” for the other 95% and I chose a heat map with detail

US Army Map Catalog

I recently discovered an interesting file. Shows available maps in the archives of the University of Texas at scale 1:250,000 and 1:1M in the world used by the US Army during the second half of the 20th century. Drawn in the ’50s, no one can say that they are accurate
