…Someone who came to visit us at the Autumn Fair!

++Just note!  This is the last week you can apply for our amazing bulk retail orders.  SplashMaps are £15 each when you buy 20 or more until 30th September.  ++

I love the way this game of gathering information on prospective buyers goes.  But at SplashMaps we don’t play it that way.  It seems so wasteful to collect random names from indifferent folk and wait until attrition and attention span means they fade away from your mailing list!

We’re nominated for Gift of the Year 2017!

I like to think that our approach leads to a slightly more engaged SplashMaps community.

Every entrant spent at least 2 minutes talking with us on the stand at Autumn Fair and was then invited to enter.  This thinned the field down to 104.  These lucky people are already on our mailing list and are picking-up the latest on map technology and are regularly offered our best deals (everyone’s a winner!).

So it’s a random pick from the cream of the show!

And the winner is…. Lynsey Clayton from the British Geological Survey (BGS)!

I have to confess, that I was hugely unaware of the retail side of BGS, but I do love their maps!  Previously I’ve worked with BGS on the Integrateed Coastal Zone project (so I should know better!). Geological maps differentiate between rock types with the most amazing attention to colour and contrast, so that any area under the UK always looks good enough to wear.

Like the other 104 newly engaged friends we made at Autumn Fair, I hope we’ll work closely with BGS soon.  In the meantime Lynsey will have to satisfy herself with the surface depiction of Great Britain via Ordnance Survey or the International look of our OpenStreetMap based service.  Happy SplashMap designing Lynsey!
