This represents a change of about 14' below where you have it in this work. I think that having it project a REAL possibility makes it more powerful.<br /><br />I'd be happy to talk to you about this if you'd like... Not sure, though, how to reach you and I'm hesitant to leave my contact information here.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9182452014508393284.post-71272765328304523982012-06-06T12:29:25.824-07:002012-06-06T12:29:25.824-07:00Beautiful topo map of San Francisco!

Thanks for posting.<br /><br />Although I know it would depart from your original purpose,it might be helpful for many if you could add indications of a few local landmarks: for example an outline of Golden Gate Park, the Presidio, Mission Dolores Park, perhaps Union Square. It would help place the topography relative to the urban landmarks people are familiar with.redboathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11307076451312045561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9182452014508393284.post-77672180769280389732012-05-27T18:03:18.273-07:002012-05-27T18:03:18.273-07:00That's the biggest size I have for online.That's the biggest size I have for online.Brian Stoklehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11152448009690142769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9182452014508393284.post-33277115368729333432012-05-22T11:33:27.758-07:002012-05-22T11:33:27.758-07:00These look really great!

I was trying to find a good quality topographic map without streets, and I stumbled on your site.<br /><br />Do you happen to have a higher resolution of the atlas version?Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09700726187342754162noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9182452014508393284.post-90467479481231958212012-03-28T23:22:15.525-07:002012-03-28T23:22:15.525-07:00Ashley,
Thanks for the compliment. Glad you like ...Ashley,<br /><br />Thanks for the compliment. Glad you like the work. I'm not a landscape architect, so I'm unfamiliar with the color pattern you describe. I based mine on an atlas I have. It's from the UK, so maybe they do their topographic colors differently.<br /><br />That said, would you e-mail me, or provide a link to an example of a map with the colors you describe. Thanks!Brian Stoklehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11152448009690142769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9182452014508393284.post-71817083158625101532012-03-28T11:45:13.011-07:002012-03-28T11:45:13.011-07:00Hi! I love your work!
Since you welcome comments, ...Hi! I love your work!<br />Since you welcome comments, I would suggest, as a landscape architect,<br />that typically topographic maps are colored darker at lower elevations and lighter at higher ones.<br /><br />Looking at your map, I find the differences in hue compete with the differences in value or tonality, decreasing the overall legibility. Try working in an overall tonality or color family.<br /><br />I am so glad to see a topo map of SF- I looked for one myself not long ago, and ended up using a clean digital model, at the expense of actual lines. <br /><br />-AAshleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05766003891291597193noreply@blogger.com
