We have recently changed passwords, so annually we have a licence obligation in the Jordan Survey that we have to change your password every year. We did that on the 29th of September. So if for some reason you feel you can't get into Digimap for Schools but you feel you should get in, please double check what your password is. If you've forgotten your password or you need a reminder, please contact our help desk there on digimap.schools.ed.ac.uk or you can pick up the phone. Please also check that your contacts are up to date. Again, if you don't know who your main contact is you can come and ask our help desk and they will happily fill you in. It's good for us to have your up to date contact details so that we know when we send out the new password that it goes to somebody who's actually there and doesn't just bounce so you then are left a bit high and dry. We can't contact you unless we have your contact details although you can always contact us of course. Let's start with Digimap for Schools here. I want to draw your attention to one of two things at the beginning. In the top right hand corner here we have a series of settings. There's a little drop down arrow where you can edit your preferences. When we send you your password we also send you a four digit pin. So if you enter your pin here it will allow you to edit the settings. So the first thing we can edit is the name Digimap for Schools that appears in the top right hand corner. It says Digimap for Schools here. I'm going to change this to something a bit frivolous just because I can just an illustrant point. In this preferences you can also choose to hide the saved maps tab. So the save maps function is here on the left hand side. It allows you to save maps for future so that you can go back to them at any point. There's something we need to flag here that if you save maps with names and additional data on them say you've got pupils addresses or their home locations or locations of other things do be aware that anybody who logs in to Digimap for Schools under your username password will be able to see all the information on those maps. Now some people are not comfortable with that so we give them the option to hide the saved maps tab completely. So I'm going to do that just now to show you what happens. I click this button here. It goes orange. I can click the save preferences like this. Now nothing happens until I click the refresh button up here. Watch that this saved maps tab on the left hand side will disappear. So I just click to refresh. The screen will reload and you'll see that saved maps has disappeared. Now for the purposes of this webinar it's not sensible for me to remove that so I'm just going to add it back in. Go back to edit my preferences, enter my PIN code and click okay and then I can unhide the saved maps tab and save preferences. If I reload again you'll see that saved maps tab will reappear. There it is. You'll also see that the name of my school in the top right hand corner has reappeared and changed no longer says Digimap for Schools. It says my school rocks. You can put your own school name in there. Remember that only people who have PIN code can change that so your pupils who are logging in as long as you don't give them the PIN code obviously they won't be able to change that. Okay so let's move on to the major parts of Digimap for Schools. First of all we have a map panel here on the right hand side and on the left hand side we have a panel which lists all the different sorts of tools. So if you can if you need to do anything they're looking at the tools on the left hand side is the option. So we're going to start by using the search box here on the top left hand corner. I'm going to search for Norwich first. When I search I just type the name in and I hit my return key. If you are using a tablet or a touchscreen you can hit the little search magnifying glass there. They'll get two sets of results. One will be places in the UK and one will be places for the world. So we're searching two sorts of gazettea here. One is just the UK places and one is a global places. There aren't just place names in it. There are some major landmarks and tourist features as well. Things like the Taj Mahal or the Eiffel Tower and Mount Everest and so on. Sometimes though you need to be a bit creative about what you search for so it's always worth having a look. Do also note that sometimes you'll need to scroll down this list if there are more places than appear on the one list. So I'm going to start by clicking the top one and that will relocate my map to be places I've clicked on and as you can see we've got a marker in the middle. When I close this search tab here you'll find that the marker disappears even though the map doesn't move locations. In order to change the scale of the map I can either use my scroll wheel on my mouse if you're using a tablet or touchscreen you can use a pinch zoom in and out which is very standard stuff or on the right hand side here there's a zoom bar where you can zoom in and out like this. I'll just click the plus and minus buttons. As I do that you'll notice that the maps will change. They don't change at every click but they will change enough to show you an appropriate map for the scale of the map of the map that you're looking at. So as I zoom in you'll see that we get into a more detailed version of the map. This particular one is probably familiar if you know the ordinary surveys explorer series which is the orange paper maps. This is the digital equivalent. By keep zooming in you get a bit more detail still and keep going and eventually I get to the most detailed level which goes in as far as street level here. So you can see spot heights in the middle of the road. You can see the pavement edgings. You can see individual building outlines. The colours of the ground will also tell you what the ground cover is like and so on. There's a key on the left hand side here which will give you an indication of what means what. So the different coloured buildings are there. You've got glass houses and so on. Then all the roads and paths and tracks and all the different surfaces are also listed in the key there. As I zoom out of course you'll notice that the key will change as I go. It takes a little bit of time to refresh because it's loading quite a lot of information there and as I keep going out there I'm back to the explorer series. By keep going out a bit further I get to what we know is the 1 to 50,000 data which is the or a pink land ranger maps. This is the digital equivalent of those. Keep going out further still and I get to something that's more like a road atlas. Keep going further still and I get a much better view of the whole country. You can zoom to the full extent by clicking this little button underneath the zoom bar. If I do this this will zoom me right out to show me the global view. You can also use the little button at the top here to just drag a box like this and zoom in on a particular area. We have a compass button here also in the top right which will expand the compass like that and just click on it again to minimise it again. Let's go back to the start. I'm going to click this refresh button which will start again with everything that takes me right back to the beginning. Let me go back to searching for something new. We're going to find a school. I'm going to look for Newton's range primary school. Just type Newton's range primary school in here. Hit my return key and it comes up with Newton's range primary school there in the search results. If I click on that I find that I have my marker right on the school. I'm going to use my scroll wheel to zoom in and we should find that the school outline appears on the map like that. Once I've gone as far in as I need to I'm not going to go quite as far in as that. I'm going to come out a little bit so we can see a bit more context. What I'm going to do first is to measure a root around the school. You may have heard of the Daily Mile. We have some learning resources in our learning resources section on our website which will cover the Daily Mile. The Daily Mile was set up by a teacher in Stirling who discovered that actually getting all her pupils up and running every morning to get lots of oxygen into their brains was a really good idea. She makes them run a mile around the school grounds every morning before they do anything else. It's a fantastic way to get started although I can imagine that caralling a whole class or even a whole school worth of children to run a mile every morning is probably quite a challenge. If you wanted to measure how far it was to run around your school you can use the measurement tools here. On the left hand panel we can click on measurement tools. I'm going to choose distance. This is a very simple operation. I just click with my mouse to mark each change of direction as I go around the school like this. This is the way my children would have to run if they wanted to run right around the school. I double click to finish the line and as you can see the line goes solid and it also comes up with a little tool tip that tells you how far the distances that I've measured so that's 336.6 meters. In the left hand panel it will give you both metric and imperial measurements in case you need both and obviously the measurements will be appropriate to the sorts of distances you're measuring. If you measure right across the United States you'll get the different distance in miles and kilometres. If you measure right around the school you'll get it in yards and meters. I can do the same for the area. If I click on the area button I can now measure the rough area of the schools. I'm going to start in this corner this time. Whoops! Trigger fingers and I'm going to click to change the direction of each point where I want to change the shape of the school and as you can see all I'm doing is drawing a polygon around the school building like this which will give me the area of the school. Now I'm doing this quite roughly because I'm in a hurry and I double click to finish and as you can see the line goes solid and the tool tip gives me 3187.8 square metres. These measurements are temporary so if you try to print this now you will find that the measurements don't come up on it but the measurement tools are simply for measuring they're not designed to be permanent annotations on the map. If you want to do permanent annotations on the map we'll come to that in a minute because we'll use the drawing tools. For now I'm going to delete these measurements by clicking this button here on the left delete the measurements, delete all and the measurements will disappear so I'm back to my original map. Let's move on to the drawing tools then so if I want to plot and measure my journey to school we have a learning resource on our website which relates to class travel and thinking about teaching children how far they travel to school and who takes the longest journey, who takes the shortest journey, whether they travel by bus, by car, on foot, by bike and is there shortcuts do they have to go on the major roads could they avoid the major roads there's lots of things to discuss there. First of all I'm going to start with the drawing tools here clicking the top tab on the left hand side I'm going to start by marking my house I'm going to click the marker and when I click the marker button you'll see that a whole selection of markers opens so I'm just going to use the big pink x here and mark my house here. If I want to change the colour of that I can do that so I just need to click select button and hover over it and it goes yellow when I click on it and then I can change the settings here so I'm going to turn mine into a great big green x like this it's probably quite hard to see actually let's try darker out like there we go next I want to measure the distance that I travel to school so I'm going to use the line tool up here and I'm going to mark from my house here's my front door along the street again I'm just clicking the mouse at each point to work out which direction I need to go in and I'm double click to finish somehow I've got a bit of an error there excuse me let me just um correct that so you can see it a bit better right sorry start that one again I'll check the line tool here I'm going to click on the map each time I want to change direction I'm just going to measure my journey to school like this and I'm going to double click to finish the line I'm going to select the line here using the select tool so hover over it wait for the grab hand click it until it's yellow that means it's selected and then I can change the line settings here to give it a different weight and different colour I'm going to make it red and I'm going to make it dotted and I'm going to make it five points so it really stands out click anywhere else on the map and you can see that my line has changed colour if I now want to measure that distance I can use the measure tool here and this will allow me to label the the line that I've just drawn with the length of the line so I'm going to click metric I'm going to click on the line itself where I want the label to appear and then it will add my label for it now that's um selected the line as well so I can just click off there to make sure it's um it's red again so you can see it similarly if I want to measure the area of my school I can use a shape measurement here I'm going to choose the polygon this works in exactly the same way as the measurement tool did so I click each corner of the building like this to measure the area again I'm going to do this quite roughly because it's quite a complicated building it will take me forever and you'd be very bored um rough distance like this clicking to change direction at every point and then double click to close the polygon and fix it and that gives me my shape sorry trigger fingers again I can add the measurement to this so I click the measure button and then I click on the polygon itself and it will add the measurement in meter squared for me I can also change the fill settings so let's make this one green and get a dark green outline like that and there I have my route to school so imagine you could have first children in a class and you can add all their different home locations to the map you could do this on a whiteboard in front of the whole class and each child can add their own home location you could then measure the distances between each home location at the school and see who travels furthest to school who's closest and some people who look closest may not actually be closest depending on which way they have to walk um there's a lot of discussion to be to be had there okay let me just check my script to make sure I don't miss anything so if you wanted to add an image of your school you can do this using this button here so it's add image there so what I'm going to do is to pick the point at which I want the image to add I'm going to click on it and it will then ask me to find the file I want to add I'm just going to browse for this here and here in here there we go so here's my school I'm going to open the file and then I can click upload and it will add the image there so as you can see when I run my mouse over this image I get a little grab hand so I can pick them the photograph up and I can just move it so that it makes sense in the location of the context of the rest of my map so I'm going to now add a grid reference to my map here so that I can tell what the grid reference of my primary school is there's a grid reference button here I just click on this and then I click where I want the grid reference to be so let's pick the front door of the school here and it will add a detailed grid reference according to the location that I've clicked so the grid reference will change according to how zoomed in or zoomed out your map is if you zoom right out to a Great Britain level you'll get a much coarser grid reference then you will if you're zoomed right in like this but as I zoom in and out of course that grid reference is fixed because that's the point at which I fixed it when I drew the map there so now I'm going to save my map for later I'm going to click this button here that says saved maps it's the little filing cabinet icon on the left hand side if I click save map here we give you the options to add a map title a class name and a pupil name those headings are suggestions they are not requirements it doesn't matter what you put in those but you need something that in order that enables the map to be identified uniquely when you come back to it so I'm going to call this Newton Grange primary school um I'm going to put piece seven as my class name and my name in here as I said earlier I do remember that anybody else who logs in under your school username will be able to see this information so if you have any concerns about data protection just bear those in mind when you're doing it so now click save and you'll see that the map appears in the left hand panel here we can also go back to any previous maps that we've drawn so I'm going to draw do you want earlier this year click on this one it will ask whether I want to replace the existing map or or merge the drawings I'm going to replace it to show you how I can recall what I've just done without losing any of it so there's one I did earlier true blue Peter style if I want to go back to the map I've just drawn for you guys here I can just scroll up the list in the left hand panel click on that replace the drawings and hey presto there is the map that we just drew just now all there if you have the pin code you can add and remove maps from the save maps panel as as before so you'll see the little bin icon next to it and you can remove them like this by clicking that one it's going to delete that one there and then I can relock that I can also rename maps and I can also set up a folder structure here so you might want to set up a folder for each class or for each project or something similar to that once you've finished doing that you can click relock and then nobody can go and edit it without that pin code again next I'm going to move on to the map selector here so in the top left hand corner of the map there's a drop down area that talks about the different types of maps that we have available so the default one is the current audit survey map that's the contemporary stuff the radio buttons down the left hand side on the right hand side of the slider allow you to select two maps to slide between the two so we have the aerial imagery here we have a 1950s map which isn't available until you zoom out a bit because it's a different scale and we have the 1890s map which is also only for a zoomed out scale we have recently made a change to this we used to have both an aerial layer and an aerial x layer so we've removed the aerial x layer and added the x bit to the overlays in the left hand side here we'll come to those in a minute hold the thought on the overlays for now what I want to show you is the way you can move between these two types between two types of map so if we have the aerial imagery on one side and the audit survey map on the other we can use this slider to gradually fade between the two types of map so the aerial photography is great but actually it is only a picture and it only tells part of the story similarly the map is only a map and that only tells part of the story so to be able to fade between the two is very useful when we look further out and we look at the historical maps you can also see how useful they are to have the 1950s map on one side and the contemporary map on the other side so I'm going to start with the the 1890s map on one side and the 1950s on the other I'm going to slide between the two here so 1890s Newton Grange was non-existent it's a mining town so the mines haven't taken off as we get to the 1950s you can see how this little town grows up quite significantly and then if we put the contemporary map back on this side we can then slide back again to see what Newton Grange looks like now but as you can see all this rural patch here by Cockpen Farm and all this housing up by Mayfield, Frians has all grown up since the 1950s quite a great expansion if you're looking at things like the growth of new towns after the Second World War and the 1948 New Towns Act this is a really useful thing to to be able to do look at places like Milton Keynes or Stephen Edge or Harlow Wellingarden City lots of places certainly the sort of towns outlaw in London you'll see the growth in them between 1890s, 1950s and current contemporary maps will be quite significant it's a really interesting thing to look at and what we could do here too by way of example let me just search for Milton Keynes because that's a useful one to show I'm going to do a search for Milton Keynes I'm Milton Keynes on the map here close the the tab and I'm going to look at the contemporary map now so we can see how big Milton Keynes is at the moment I'm going to use my drawing tools with the shape here to measure a shape around roughly around the sort of urban area that makes up a sort of Milton Keynes hesitate to call it a conurbation because that's maybe over egging it a bit but it is a fairly substantial urban area we'll just go around the edge like that and then if I move my slider down to the 1950s map you can see the outline that I've drawn in purple there shows the area that is now covered by an urban extent and you can see underneath how the little villages have actually got merged together if we go even further back and draw the 1890s map you can see that actually not a huge amount of change between 1950s and 1890s but there is some but compare that with the modern day map and actually it's quite a significant urbanisation a good bit of history there quick pause for any questions if you've got any questions please type them into the chat and we'll um we'll we'll get to them as as quickly as we can there may be some things that I can answer verbally as we go along and we do also have some learning resources in our um web pages that will help you with the use of the historical maps we've got one on Hornsy and one relating to the place where grandma used to live or what grandma remembers and um something I think there's an item on the closure of the railways Emma. Emma, there's a question from Claire can you show where the map selector tool is kept again please? Yes so the map selector tool is in the top left hand corner of the map itself it's a little green button so sometimes on some backgrounds it's quite hard to see but you can see if you click on it you then get the drop down list and that will slide between the two different maps and then you can click on it again and the drop down disappears back up there. Thank you there's another question from Mark is the historical maps the same for other countries? No so the only global maps we have are the world padorama which are our contemporary maps so the historical maps only apply to Great Britain. There's another question from Charlotte will there be time to show us anyway as we can use this in early years? Possibly possibly possibly we do have some early years um learning resources which we can dig out to show you but I'm not sure we'll have time to go over that in any detail today but happy to answer questions um separately on that another time. We have another question here um how do I select specific measurements uh elements to remove them but not the rest? So removing things let me draw a few extra bits on this map just for the sake of drawing extra bits so I can show you what to delete um let's draw a couple of triangles as well just because we can so if you want to delete particular things there are three delete options here either you can delete everything just the first button here and if I do that it'll say do you really want to delete everything because if you delete if you delete it all you're going to have to draw it again so you do be very sure before you delete it um or you can delete on click or you can delete selected ones so if I had selected a number of different items so I'm going to select um that one and if I hold down my control key I think I can you know select shift key I can select more than one um or I can draw a box around selected ones like this also I then click the selected delete button and it will delete the ones are selected or I can choose the delete on click so that is a useful one where you can delete individual items just like this so one at a time. Another question here from Jonathan is this for one terminal all pupils need to do this on the same computer another own device um if you are if you have a class where all the pupils have their own devices they will be working on their own device and they will be working on their own map so if you have one map per device in that sense if you were to put it on a white board on a or smart board or something then everybody's working on the same map they can see but actually if you have all all the pupils with their own device they're only working on the map that they can see in front of them. We have another question here from Gita is there any resources for s e n d slash nonverbal children which teachers can access to plan for differentiation? We don't have any specific send or nonverbal resources no that's something we should look into can we talk to you about that um after this because I think that would be useful for us to useful for us to know what you would find most useful. We have another question here um from Jenny is there any suggestion of how to protect pupil data if all they can access the maps? This is a very very tricky question Jenny we've battled with this for for a long time and because you only have one username and password for the whole school to access the service there isn't any option for a degree of individual pupil personalisation it's just not technically possible to do that if you have one username and password because we can't differentiate between one person logging in another person so which is why we say we offer you the option to withdraw the save maps completely so that nobody can share anything. If you wish to keep the save maps it has to be up to you to manage what data goes into that that there's there's nothing we can do to control it because we can't tell who's logging in if that makes sense um it's not fair of us to stop you putting particular bits of information on the app because that would defeat the point in in having the options to do that um but we are aware that it can be an an issue um the counter argument is that we create a username and password for every single pupil and that comes with not only headaches for us but bigger headaches for you um it there isn't a universal username and password system for everybody that works across the across the UK so until we get into working with things like social media logins and the open north and so on it doesn't really work to have one username password per pupil which is the only real way you get to lock down that personal data thing to each individual person so it's a very tricky one we've chosen to take this line on the basis that it's it's worked reasonably well for 12 years now but we're always looking at ways to improve that thank you so much uh we have a question from we go in here uh if you hide the save maps bar does that mean you can't save once you're working on either that is correct because you can't access the save maps button um and Jenny um he says if it's only teachers with the pin does that mean that teachers only can hide and see the maps um it only the teacher can add and remove the save maps button if the save map section is visible then everyone will be able to see it but only the teacher with the pin can remove it or make it visible if that makes sense okay um keep thinking of your questions keep typing them in I will carry on with my script now so that we can we can crack through everything and we've looked at the historical maps um we're also some good learning resources we have about developing place knowledge with um things like land use maps and story maps they're also worth worth a look uh let's move on to the buffer tools here first of all I'm going to clear all my drawings from this map so that I don't get confused I'm just going to delete all the drawings there that's everything on and I'm going to start going with the GB map um let's go back to Newton Grange because that's where we were before and my maps are based on that um let's look at the buffer tools first so the interesting thing about the buffer tools is that you can have either a circular buffer or you could have a linear buffer so the circular buffer might come in handy for things like uh you need to know how many stations lie within a 10 mile radius of somewhere or how many churches there are within a five mile radius all sorts of questions like that so the buffer tools are available under the drawing tools here and there's a button here it says buffer tools if I click on that and then I'm going to pick my school here which is Newton Grange private school right in the middle um I'm going to enter a buffer radius so I'm going to put a one mile buffer on it so if we are looking at things like catchment areas maybe we could see who lives within one mile of our school so I then I click on the school itself with my little blue dot and it will draw me a circle that is one mile in radius so I then might want to plot um a number of that could be um it could be pupil addresses it could be um landmarks it could be museums it could be stations it could be post boxes anything you like you could plot spot the um the points of those data there and see how many of them lie within that buffer and how many lie without it I'm going to remove that circle now for the purpose of the next one the alternative is to use a linear buffer this might be useful for things like flooding on a river or noise pollution along the road or um oh quite you can't think now those two are good examples so we're going to choose the line buffer tool here and I'm going to pick something like 200 meters whoops not 1200 200 I'm just typing the the distance in here I'm going to put a 200 meter buffer along it and I'm going to use this river here as my example so let's say we know that we don't want houses within 200 meters of the river because if we build houses within 200 meters of a river they will flood because that's that's something that we know so I want to know how much of the field I can or can't build in so I'm going to click along this river here to draw the line in the same way as I drew the other lines on the map previously so I'm just going to keep clicking until I get all the way along the river and I'm going to double click to finish in just a second double click there and then it will draw me a 200 meter buffer from the line that I've drawn as I zoom in of course you can then start to see whether there are already any houses within 200 meters of the river that are going to flood so these houses here at cathals cathals wood might might get a bit wet um the housey castle might get a bit wet well then would would assume that if it was a castle it was probably built well out of the flood plain and useful examples for things like noise pollution from roads or if you were examining the impact of a new road on wildlife for example and how how far have your hedgehogs got to get across a road or or something similar okay so that's the buffer tools I'm just going to delete those now as well just to unclutter my map I'd like to show you the geography image search next in the left hand panel here is a little blue camera icon so if we click on this one it gives us an option to image search so the geography images are a big bank of images taken by a number of different contributors they are crowdsourced images so anybody can sign up to the geography website and add their own photographs photographs are taken at different points over the last 20 or so years um they are tagged with a location and some information about the picture of what it might show whether it shows this church or that church or a new railway or whatever um and therefore what we do is to allow you to search those that that's um information that's associated with the images so to search for all images the simple thing to do is put in a star in this search box I've got quite a big area here so there are too many pictures for it to show but if I zoom in I'm just going to use my scroll wheel to zoom in here you'll find that the number of pictures reduces to a number that's manageable single images will pop up as a little black camera icon and the green circles with a number in them tell you how many other pictures there are hiding under that green dot so thumbnails of the images will appear in the uh left hand column here and you can click on any one of these camera icons and it will bring up a little um sample image if you click on the image itself you then get the full extent of the image here unfortunately these are some of these pictures are so big we can't fit them all into a window on the screen um but you can go and look on the geography website here which will show you what the picture looks like originally it also gives you uh the location of the picture and the photo and the photographer and the date the picture was taken so we can just close the picture here in this top corner as I said you can skim around a bit let's zoom out a bit and you can see where all the pictures are um this particular patch is quite interesting because they were building the reopening the original Scottish boards railway here so you get lots and lots of pictures of the new railway line as it was being put in I haven't yet trawled this enough to work out whether anybody took any pictures of the same place before the railway went back in to see what it used to look like but there will be examples of that the geographical website is constantly being updated so there are people always adding new images to to it which means you're more likely to get those historical comparisons now if you wanted to search for a particular thing or pictures of a particular thing so let's try the word church because that's an obvious thing to search for I can type church in here and as I zoom out a bit you might find that we get more hits so there's a church here which has 17 photographs taken of it so let's click on that to zoom in this is cockpen church so we can have a picture of it there if I click in the on the thumbnail on the left hand panel it will highlight the picture on the map to there's pictures of the door and so on again we rely on the tags that the geograph folks have put against those photographs so um there's only so much control we have over what you will find when you search for a particular term but it is quite a useful useful function to have moving on um we talked about the buffer zone and how you might want to add a number of points to your map straight off so what we can do is to show you how to add your own data set um all in one go rather than having to plot individual points so this red button on the left hand side it looks like a looks like a first aid point actually I'm not quite sure with why we've got it looking at the first aid point is add your own data so to add your own data you can construct a comma separated file or you can do it in excel which comprises a location so say a postcode or a grid reference and a label field so you have two columns effective in your excel spreadsheet and the postcode will act as your your your location field will allow you to plot the data and then the label field will allow you to to label the points that you've uploaded later so let me show you a quick example of the csv file I've got so you can see it uh this one so I'm just opening my excel file and you can see what I mean about um about this is that as you can see I've got two columns in my excel spreadsheet one is the grid ref and one is the label if I wanted to use postcodes that's fine I can use postcodes in this field uh help pages will give you detailed instructions on how to create this this file so that it will upload properly I'm just going to put that out of the way for the moment I go to the add your own data tab in the left hand panel I click the browse button and I find my csv file here and I click open and I click import and it will then go away take the point data that I've put in that excel spreadsheet and it will upload it to the right right place so as you can see here each of the lines in that excel spreadsheet now corresponds to a point on the map if I go back to the drawing tools now I can select them all using a box here I'm just going to drag a big box over my whole map and you'll see that all my little points turn yellow I'm going to turn these all into blue dots like that and then if I click anywhere to unselect them it hasn't turned them into blue dots it's turned them into purple dots there's always something unexpected isn't there anyway there's circles rather than pins that that's fine that's how you add a number of points all at once similarly I can add routes or lines if I have that if anybody has any kind of GPS device either a handheld GPS or you have a running watch a fitness watch a Fitbit or if you use an app like Strava or something on your phone you can create a trail using using that that will allow that you can then plot on this map so here's one I've done earlier and this is maybe a bit of a niche use but it's useful to know that it can be done if you have a a fitness track of some sort you should be able to download from it something called a GPX file and that will allow you to plot this on here so I can just go to the ad data again and I can browse and I can find my GPX file here and I can open it and it will add the routes onto that so I'm going to immerse annotations we should see it appear in a second so as you can see there's the purple line there so if I select that go to the drawing tools select that with the little grab hand I can then change its weight and its color like this so it stands out as a big red line that's the way you can add data fairly easily assuming you have the original source okay another pause for questions have we got time? Yes so I have a question here from Jonathan could you please explain the csv file things like csv stands for comma separated version I think so you can create a csv file using excel so here is the file here all you need to do is to put the two headings in so put your data in the two columns like this and when you do a file and save as you get to choose the comma delimited option here from this dropdown is rather than saving it as an excel workbook save it as comma delimited.csv that's the format that it needs to distinguish between one row and one item in each row between yeah distinguish between the items in the row does that um does that help it's a particular format that you can create that will allow these map schools to understand the data you're trying to put in it does that help you can do it in notepad 2 actually so let me show you this by way of example so I could put postcode comma label and then hit return key and then I could put in my postcode a comma and a space and then um my house and then return and I could put in another postcode put in granny put in labels like that so if you've got the comma in the in between the two items and a return at the end of each row you can also save that to a file save as and you can put them all just show you this put the um manual doc csv at the end like that and that would also work okay I hope that I hope that answers the question um we can come back to that uh another time if that's if that's still an issue um any more questions that's all good okay uh let's move swiftly on let me show you how to print next that's easier so print button is here on the top panel what this actually does is generate a file for printing it doesn't automatically send them out to your printer so you're not using up printer credits or paper or ink by hitting the print button I hit the print button here I guess a dialogue box that allows you to construct your print file so first you can give it a name I'm going to call it my map you can add your own name to it if you wish but it's not compulsory so I'll leave that blank you can get the print scale to be the exact scale that you see it on the on the screen or you can round it up to the nearest sort of sensible scale depends what what you want so if I round it up it goes up to 25 000 I then have options between a pdf file and a jpeg file so a jpeg is just an image whereas a pdf will allow you to um do other things with it um I can pick a four or a three and I can pick portrait or landscape I can choose to add to include the drawings I've added to the map or I can take them off like that and you can see in the preview on the right hand side the drawings will include or not you can choose to add national grid lines which is sometimes useful if the map you're looking at does not already have the national grid lines printed on it as some of them do the key thing here is to look at the two tabs on the right hand side one of which is the content preview and one is the layout preview so the layout preview will give you an idea of what area your map will cover so if you've got annotations on it like this the drawings that you've added you won't want to make sure that the but all your drawings are included on the map in which case you can just drag this around a little bit to centre it make sure that they're all on there the content preview will give you an idea of what the map you're going to print actually looks like so I'm going to do a hit generate print file now this will generate a file that I can then look at and then if I like it then I can send it to the printer I don't like it I can just delete it and start again and no harm done so click generate print file and this should generate me a pdf which will show you what the final map will look like so it comes with its proper borders comes with its title it's got both the cardinal scale and the scale bar it includes the date and the time and it includes your school name in the bottom left hand corner two as you can see all the annotations that I added to it all the drawings that added to it are there and I've got all of them in place if I like that map I can now choose to send it to the printer using whatever my browser allows you to do so everybody's browser might be slightly different but you can usually just print it from there if you wanted to generate a jpeg file you could add it to a word document or add it to a PowerPoint presentation and then print it from there of course okay and now I'm going to struggle to close that under there okay we've got another couple of questions pick out individual elements within a buffer zone e.g. every car parks and laws in a buffer zone ah now um you would need to produce a csv file first overlay it on the buffer zone so the maps you're looking at here are what we call raster maps they like looking at photographs they are effectively done images they don't um have any detailed um knowledge about the things that they are depicting so if you see a picture if you see a um a museum or a castle marked on the map the drawing doesn't know it's a museum or a castle it is just a drawing so if you wanted to pick out particular things within a buffer zone you would have to add those things to the map first as a as a point dataset in the same way I showed you adding the csv upload okay good that makes sense right okay let's move on to um showing you the global maps I'm going to delete all my drawings again just to clear things up and then we're going to zoom right out to show you the global maps so again I've clicked this full extent bottom under the zoom bar on the right hand side and that allows you to zoom right out so I'm also going to do a an international search let's search for Mount Everest so as far as global maps are concerned we have three different options we have this green one which is the world panorama dataset created by Collins Bartholome under the map selector you will also see world boundaries which is a dataset created by a company called natural earth this is quite a simple dataset very good for showing things like national boundaries and so on but there isn't much detail once you get further in there's there's some but not as detailed as what we have for Great Britain if we keep going in we get to the to the world panorama atlas data again and if you keep going in a bit further we eventually get to something called open street map data open street map is a crowdsource dataset so it varies in terms of content depending on where you are in very urbanized areas you'll find the data is pretty good it's very like the stuff that we have the most detailed data we have for Great Britain in much more rural and less less populated areas you'll find that there is much less information there it is a crowdsource dataset people will map the bits they're interested in they're usually interested in the bits where people live and if there are a few people living there then a few people interested in the detail but it is still there nonetheless so if we search for Mount Everest there I can click on that and you'll see that Mount Everest is marked in the middle of the Himalayas and as I zoom in you'll see that there's not really a huge amount of information there because nobody lives on Mount Everest that's probably not true actually I bet there are people who live there not all the year but for a good chunk for you as we zoom out again you'll see that the the data changes so that we get to the model of the Atlas style data if we search for another place like let's go to Eiffel Tower I can spell Eiffel that would help there we go this also appears in our global landmarks section if I click on the Eiffel Tower and it will find it in the middle of Paris I'm going to close the search box there as I zoom in you'll see that the open street map data appears and it is pretty good pretty detailed if we keep going we'll find the Eiffel Tower again I've now lost let's find it again I wasn't so far out and then as we zoom right in you can see that there is as much detail here in the open data as there is for um for Great Britain so this level of detail doesn't exist for across the whole world but it will exist in most major cities most major urbanized areas okay so what we could do here is find the latitude and longitude of the of the Eiffel Tower so in the bottom of this left hand panel you'll see a little i button and this will give you all the information about the map that you're looking at so this applies both Great Britain and and the global maps as you I move my mouse over the map you can see that the latitude and longitude location is changing grid reference and the British national grid reference is there are not applicable because we're not over Great Britain obviously if you want to do a coordinate capture so you can click this button here click on the middle of the top the Eiffel and you'll see that the button that the location freezes so I can now move my mouse around without changing the location that will allow you to copy and paste the the location of your particular item using using that method there so you could either have it in latitude longitude degrees or in decibel degrees if we were to go over to the UK let's zoom out quite a lot and shift the map over here we'll see that the across the channel there we go we'll see that the extra fields here for the grid reference and the British national grid are also filled in there as you zoom in you can see that my mouse changes as it runs over the map there okay we talked already about adding the grid reference marker point so under the drawing tools you've got a grid reference here so again you can use that to add a grid reference and that will depend upon the scale of the map that you're looking at how detailed a grid reference it will give you next I want to show you some overlays the overlays tab here is on the left hand side it's the three layers of orange we have a number of different overlays some are just over at Great Britain and some are for the global maps let's start with the db ones because they're right here I mentioned earlier that we have moved the aerial the x bit from the aerial x layer into here and that is the roads and place known layer that you see here so i'm going to just put the aerial maps on on here for a minute so you can see what I mean the roads and place names is an extra layer that just allows a bit more context to the aerial photographs the aerial photographs are of course just pictures and they don't have any names and things on them so we've created this layer that allows you to see where places are even though you're just looking to picture however they also are quite useful when you look at the historical maps so certainly when you look at the development of larger roads these are quite hard to see I'm afraid because of the different colorings on them but you can see there that there's there's an old road running down the middle from levers down there right across to Greatham but the new bit of the road cuts across country right across here where it's clearly in 1890s that road didn't exist there's a number of things to discuss there with the development of our road network over over time and so on even when we take the 1950s map we might find that those roads are not where they are now so the roads and place names is quite useful over the aerial photography we've also got the British national grid overlay that will change as you zoom in and out of course to make it scale specific there's not much point in looking into one kilometer grid if you're trying to look at the whole of Great Britain because it's just going to be a big blur similarly there's not much pointing you look at the 100 kilometer grid if you're looking at the middle of a town you wouldn't necessarily see anything the postcode overlay is very interesting so this will change according to the the zoom level you're at as well so we start with the postcode areas which are the big ones as you zoom out you can start to see them a bit better there these are quite tricky to see because the map underneath is quite dense these are the postcode areas and as i zoom in you'll find that we suddenly start to get postcode districts which are the sp3 bit not just sp as i zoom in a bit more you then start to get the postcode sectors which will be sp35 or sp34 there and then eventually as we move into a somewhere a bit more urban we'll find that postcode units themselves appear which is the individual postcode so a postcode comprises roughly 15 delivery points and they can be either residential or or commercial but once you zoom in right down here you can start to see the size of the different postcode units and so on let's put the os data underneath you can maybe see them a bit a bit more easily every so often you'll see little squares they look like perfect squares postcodes that are marked as perfect squares these are what we call vertical streets and they apply to buildings where there is more than one postcode in any one building so often applied to tower blocks of flats or large commercial premises where one building has got multiple postcodes in it or multiple delivery points but those are quite interesting to have a look postcodes are not drawn based on geographical features they are mathematically calculated which is why they often look as though they don't really make much sense they're not calculated with any logic in that sense they are a mathematical arrangement and once we get out to the global level though we've got some much more interesting overlays on world climate and human geography and physical geography I have to be careful not to go off on one on my favourite which is the population density one if we zoom right out though I'll just drag my slider bar out here so we can have a much better view of the globe the world climate overlays will cover things like temperature both average for past dates and average predicted projected dates so 21 to 2040 for example it will give you an idea of what how hot the world might be in different places and you could compare that with how hot it has been in the past so there's some interesting changes to be seen there and we've also got the world human geography layers here this is where my favourite is is the world population density this is fabulous just being able to see where the world's population lives in its greatest density and there are so many conversations to be had about why that's the case what might change it what the impact of different things might be the classic example here of course is Egypt and the Nile Delta Egypt since ancient Egyptian times has been known as the Nile is known as the source of life in Egypt and this illustrates it I can't think of a better way of illustrating it than this all of Egypt's population lives along the river or along the delta and this is a really stark illustration of that similarly I think the idea that the population in northern India is really dense and then it suddenly stops as they get up to the Himalayas there are physical geological barriers as to why the population doesn't spread out more so there's lots and lots and lots of conversations we had about that and we also have the world time zones this is quite useful for thinking about how what happens when people travel if you were to travel from one side of the United States to the other how many time zones do you cross and why and can you see why some countries align themselves with some time zones and instead of others more conversations to be had there but we also have the physical geography overlays the world biomes is an interesting one this is created by the world wildlife fund so there is more information in the link here on the left hand panel so I would encourage you to have a look at that also to note that there is an information tool in the top here little magnifying glass click on that and you can click on any of the world biomes here and it will tell you what the world what the biome is and give you a bit more information about it that's a useful function so I'm going to deactivate that button to turn it off and we've also got mountain ranges and volcanoes and tectonic plates both boundaries and the plates themselves this is where you start to see the coincidence of the tectonic plate edges and the volcanic activity I'm sure I don't need to say too much about that we've also added here in the reference grids bottom which is the last student longitude and the major lines of latitude there so you can see the major lines of attitude in the middle topic of cancer caporn and the equator and the Arctic Circle and on my down there is the Antarctic Circle there we go um but the last student longitude grid will also change as you zoom in and out so that will get smaller as you zoom in the larger as you do that um if you're looking over Great Britain you'll also have the reference grids for the British National grid there so the British National grid appears twice in these over there so there you go and as you if you look at Great Britain from this level out if you like you can start to see the impact of the character of the earth um on the grid and as you zoom in of course it starts to straighten out a bit because we're not looking over a sufficiently wide area okay um I think that's a whistle stop tour I'm seven minutes over um quick last thing to say follow us on our social media channels um we have both Twitter our Facebook and um Instagram and YouTube and Laura will kick me if I get this wrong um our YouTube channel is uh full of videos um this one will go on to the uh YouTube channel once we've processed it so that you can watch this again there are lots of videos showing you how to do individual things well short videos a couple of minutes long nothing uh significant so if you want to have a look at how to do a particular thing do look at the YouTube channel and do look at our help pages it's broken down into very short sections on how to do individual things okay I'm conscious you guys have all had probably had a day at school and will be wanting to get home for a cup of tea and a biscuit or something equally nice um do drop us a line at any time with any questions you have um we're very happy to answer anything by email um do phone the help desk too if you need passwords or pins or anything like that I'm happy to stick around for a couple of minutes if there are last minute questions but if not thank you for your time
