  • Jeremy Alcorn: What I did on my holiday – a visit to Japan’s ‘Science Museum of Map and Survey’
    Forget Akihabara and Shinjuku – for all you map nerds out there, what about a trip to the Museum of Map and Survey next time you are in Tokyo? The museum explores the history of mapping in the land of the Rising Sun – my holiday slides will show you the highlights!Β 

Expect a fun night of drinks, great company, and good ol’ spatial rabble.
