We all love a map jigsaw, well at least Harry Woods and I do. Here’s Harry making a jigsaw map of London that was made from OpenStreetMap.
I guess you could make a jigsaw of your favourite location, could be one for my friends at SplashMaps.

One thought on “The Pieces of London”
I first got this jigsaw printed way back at the end of 2009 (hence showing a huge construction site for the Olympic park in that 2nd photo). I wrote a blog post about it at the time here. By late 2009 the map of London was complete enough to be usable for this kind of thing after a big boom in London mapping. I think a year earlier we were still filling in a lot of street names and there would’ve been noticeable weird gaps.
