Today I came along KOGIS [1], a project aiming to build a national GEO-data-infrastructure. There is not much quite something to see, but I am eager to see more. Then, just by occasion [4] I found that GPS Drawing.
The gallery offers amazing drawings such as the \”Oxford Don\” [2]
Complete with pointed nose and stiff upper lip, the Oxford Don was made in three stages: His eye was drawn around Farmoor Reservoir (average speed 3.7 kph, max speed 10.1 kph), his mouth along the River Thames (3.5 km and back again), and his profile along the A34, A338, A415, B4449, A40 right through Cornmarket Street in the centre of Oxford.
Breathtaking images [3] are delivered by Koichi Mori. He recorded his journeys with a GPS receiver and a heart-rate monitor and captured his physical activities over the earths surface.
