London Evolution ~ Timelapse Urban Anime!

Thanks to MissC for spotting London Evolution...

"Developed by The Bartlett Centre for Advanced Spatial Analysis (UCL), as a partnership project between English Heritage, The Centre for Smart Infrastructure and Construction (University of Cambridge)/Dr Kiril Stanilov and Museum of London Archaeology (with the Mapping London and Locating London's Past projects), and was initiated and directed by Polly Hudson (PHD). The London Evolution Animation (LEA) shows the historical development of London from Roman times to today, using georeferenced road network data brought together for the first time. The animation also visualises (as enlarged yellow points) the position and number of statutorily protected buildings and structures built during each period."
