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.

The workshop is held in German, English and Dutch.

In cooperation and with experts from the Maritiem Museum Rotterdam

WELTSTUDIO special

The offer is part of the theme day WELTSTUDIO special: Questioning Maps –  Designing Maps. It can be enjoyed throughout the day between 11am and 5pm.
