How come it took three weeks for me to hear about this mapping hack to help you understand travel routes and expenses in Ancient Rome? Maps, history, digital humanities -- what's not to love?

Topographic Maps. This collection of maps is primarily photographic negatives of maps (for printing positive images of maps), 1:50,000 original scale. The UK-DOS (United Kingdon, Directorate of Overseas Surveys) and US-DMA (Defense Mapping Agency) sheets are also on file as a single hard copy colored map from which copies could from many libraries, or from AMRS, Inc.

"A multi-faceted visualisation of the world's 50 highest peaks. The interactive graphic, made using Tableau Public, features a clickable map of the summits, satellite images of each peak and figures for each mountain's prominence and overall elevation." Nice.
