Amsterdam Growth Map

The Amsterdam Historical Museum has upgraded its Amsterdam “growth map” with a googlemaps-based version created by the Dutch multimedia firm Mapsplusmotion. These developers have done similar maps for Rotterdam and Manhattan.

A variation on these maps is a website with photos from the 1960s. It would be interesting to see a mashup with photos or drawings of buildings from the period, tied to the map.

Update 3/9/2018:  The Mapsplusmotion website  inactive.  The new website is: Mappinghistory.nl.  New maps for WestFries and the Hague are now available.
