Show HN: A vintage London map app that you can annotate as you wish
- tectec 11y agoFor those more interested in the map, I found the source here: http://www.wellingtonstravel.com/index.html#wall-map-london http://www.wellingtonstravel.com/index.html#wall-map-london There is no web version that I see, but you can hang it on your wall
- taigeair 11y agoDo you have a good idea on how to make it for the web? I couldn't find a good solution to showcase it with good zoom capability, so I opted for an app.
- radiodario 11y agocool!
- fiatjaf 11y agoYou drawed all that? It is beautiful.

- taigeair 11y agoIt's actually a long story haha. If you want to read it, it's here: http://www.wellingtonstravel.com/hand-drawn-map-of-london.html http://www.wellingtonstravel.com/hand-drawn-map-of-london.ht...
- CatsoCatsoCatso 11y agoIs there a web version?
- taigeair 11y agoNo, I'm not sure what's the best implementation for a web version. Any ideas?
- CatsoCatsoCatso 11y agoIt might be hard work.. This link is a good jumping off point though (see blog post linked in answer) http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13638969/using-custom-map-image-tiles-in-leafletjs http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13638969/using-custom-map...
- taigeair 11y agoThanks catso :)
- tixocloud 11y agoI love your maps! For a web version, I would recommend Mapbox - I was able to get custom maps up and running in no time. CartoDB is another good option. Ping me if you need any help. Cheers
- nathell 11y agoDoes it cover the whole of Greater London?
- taigeair 11y agoIt's central London.
- dublinben 11y agoI could if I owned an iOS device. Nifty idea, but not sure why this is a native app.
- taigeair 11y agoHow would you have implemented it?

- taigeair 11y agoWow I didn't realise I received so many upvotes (and it's of interest to people) until I checked HN today! Thank you everyone :) I really appreciate it. It's a pretty simple app, so I didn't think people would be so impressed, but I'm glad :) Thanks!
