IHBC’s ‘Practice’ signpost: Colouring London invites IHBC to ‘help colouring in our maps’

Colouring London, an online mapping platform that collects data on the characteristics and history of London’s buildings, says to HBC members: ‘We would love your help colouring in our maps.

Polly Hudson, Senior Research Fellow, The Alan Turing Institute, writes [summarised]:

Colouring London…forms part of the Colouring Cities Research Programme run by the Alan Turing Institute which creates open data platforms designed to help improve the quality, efficiency, sustainable and resilience of the building stock. Colouring London also now contains streamed data on current planning applications and has recently introduced a feature allowing you to colour in buildings surviving in London since 1890.

We would love your help colouring in our maps.

You can view and edit maps at https://colouringlondon.org/.

You can also send us ideas for improvements direct through our discussion forum at  https://colouringlondon.org/ or via your organisation. If you need help starting here is our ‘How to’ page link  https://github.com/colouring-cities/manual/wiki.
