Fascinating new #OpenAccess article on #Tactile #Cartographic #Signs from Albina Mościcka, Emilia Śmiechowska-Petrovskij, Jakub Wabiński, Andrzej Araszkiewicz & Damian Kiliszek in #CaGIS, #GISchat, doi.org/10.1080/15230406.2024.…


Today I worked out that the UK would nearly fit 1:1 scale on a sheet of A-39 paper.

That's using the A paper scale, where A0 is 1m^2 and each number down the scale doubles in area, keeping a 1:sqrt(2) aspect ratio.

That's A minus 39. I make a sheet of that 741.455km x 1048.576 km
