Walking Through Time is a SatNav for historical maps: A phone app that combines GPS technology with old maps to allow users to walk through time. The Map set is for central Edinburgh and allows the user to see a variety of Historic maps from 1740 to 1960. The application also comes with a set of narrated walking tours from the Edinburgh College of Art and Edinburgh.
Its a great concept, the movie below provides more details:
We hope to see more cities become available over the coming months, get in touch with Chris Speed from the Edinburgh College of Art for more details.
I work with Chris on the Walking through Time project and a new version is available which has a few speed improvements and some more maps. Thanks for the post.
