I though this was a fascinating display of airspace and the recent Icelandic volcano's impact of European air traffic.
Airspace Rebooted from ItoWorld on Vimeo.
A quick "cut & paste" from the site:"... A visualisation of the northern European airspace returning to use after being closed due to volcanic ash. Due to varying ash density across Europe, the first flights can be seen in some areas on the 18th and by the 20th everywhere is open.
The flight data is courtesy of www.flightradar24.com and covers a large fraction of Europe. There are a few gaps (most noticeably France) and no coverage over the Atlantic, but the picture is still clear.
The map data is CC-by-SA www.openstreetmap.org and contributors.
This CC-by-SA visualisation was produced by www.itoworld.com with support from www.ideasintransit.org ..."
This is the blog of a modern day Cartographer thrown into the business world. Over the course of my journeyman's career I have wandered through positions in government, news agencies, consulting corporations and rogue start ups. The hard-earned working theory I have developed is simple. In life, communication is hard work. In business, effective communication is critical. Hence, this blog parallels the location Intelligence practices on www.GeoSteppes.com.
