West Ham Industry
A new test map showing some of the commodities flowing into East London during the 19th Century. Some of the locations are not overly precise in this draft. I've started pulling out the exact location of the factories (zoom into London to see these details) from my GIS database. In the weeks ahead, I will start adding some of the ports and add a few more commodities. This is the early research for a Digging into Data project called Trading Consequences, which is a partnership between environmental historians in Canada and computer scientists in Scotland.
