In this workshop at the WELTSTUDIO at BERLIN GLOBAL, experts from the Maritiem Museum Rotterdam show how coastal profiles can be drawn and transformed into maps.
Drawing maps from the side rather than from above offers a unique perspective. Isolines, i.e. neighbouring points with the same value, are connected to each other. They can be used to graphically depict surfaces and spatial phenomena of the landscape.
The museum experts from the Netherlands support visitors in creating their maps and provide insight into the history of coastal maps.
In cooperation and with experts from the Maritiem Museum Rotterdam
