Madison! I’m working on a new version of my “Every Door” map. I first surveyed my own neighborhood back in summer 2024 to make “Every Door in Dudgeon-Monroe” and now I’m crowdsourcing the next hood: Atwood. If you live in or nearby and want to give the survey app a spin, checkout: doors.latlong.shop

#30daymapchallenge | Day 27 Boundaries | Not Madison Wisconsin was divided in the early–mid 1800s using the Public Land Survey System, carving the territory into 6mi square townships. As Madison grew, many nearby areas chose to incorporate to avoid annexation & keep control over local decisions.

#30daymapchallenge | Day 26 Transport | Bike Map of Madison 🚲 Probably my most elaborate map to date, I launched my “Bike Map of Madison” as a print earlier this summer during @madisonbikes Bike Week. Now recently updated with the new @crono_madison location! ⭐

A framed map of Madison, Wisconsin focuses on the city’s bike network in shades of blue and orange. Solid blue lines mark bike trails and paths, dashed blue lines show bike-friendly streets, and orange segments highlight busier corridors with shared lane markings. Major lakes—Mendota, Monona, Wingra, and Waubesa—appear in light blue, with parks and green spaces shaded in green. The isthmus and downtown have a dense web of bike routes, with additional paths extending west toward the UW–Madison campus and east and south into surrounding neighborhoods. A legend in the upper left explains the symbology. The frame is a light wood, set against a pale blue wall. The bottom center text reads “LATLONG.SHOP” and notes the map was created for the 2025 #30DayMapChallenge, Day 26: Transportation.

#30daymapchallenge | Day 20 Water | Land of Lakes & Rivers The most superfluous waterbodies across Wisconsin! This print has been one of the best sellers all summer market season. Probably that ultra-rich inky blue we picked (looks even more sharp in person). 💦

A beige-and-blue map of Wisconsin titled “Land of Lakes & Rivers” highlights major lakes and river systems across the state. Lake Superior dominates the top of the image in bright blue, labeled as the largest freshwater lake by surface area. Lake Michigan appears along the eastern edge with a note calling it the most “all-American” of the Great Lakes. Scattered across northern Wisconsin, clusters of small lakes are labeled with superlatives such as “largest natural lake contained wholly in Wisconsin,” “deepest natural lake,” and “largest chain of lakes.” Central text marks the Upper and Lower Wisconsin River, including the state’s longest free-flowing stretch. Individual lakes—including Chippewa Flowage, Green Lake, Lake Mendota, Lake Geneva, Wazee Lake, Lac Courte Oreilles, Yellow Lake, Bass Lake, and High Lake—are annotated with brief facts or rankings. The base map shows terrain shading and hydrology in blue against a tan background, giving the state a textured, natural look.

#30daymapchallenge | Day 19 Projections | Projected Growth City projections expect the Madison pop to surge by 115k residents (+42.8%) by 2050. The city is banking on infill & densification along BRT corridors via High Residential & Mixed-Use zoning to accommodate this growth. #yimby #madisonwi

Map titled "FUTURE GROWTH: Recommended Development Intensities" for the City of Madison, Wisconsin. The map uses a light background to show the city outline, with colored areas indicating development plans: Dark Purple shows the Highest Intensity, Magenta shows Moderate Intensity, and Hatched Green areas indicate Potential Future Neighborhood Growth Areas, mostly on the city's outskirts.

A dark blue, star-themed map titled “Bike to Pluto” shows the Planet Trek Dane County installation, a scale model of the solar system laid out along Madison’s bike paths. The Sun and inner planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars) appear clustered near downtown Madison, with Ceres and Jupiter slightly farther west along the Southwest Commuter Path. Saturn is located near the UW Arboretum, Uranus along the Military Ridge State Trail, Neptune farther west on the same trail, and Pluto near the map’s upper left corner. Each planet is marked with a stylized icon and labeled in bright colors. The bike path routes are shown as light lines connecting the planetary markers. Text on the map reads: “Planet Trek Dane County is a scale model of our solar system along Madison’s bike paths.” A footer credits LATLONG.SHOP, the 2025 #30DayMapChallenge, and data sources.

#30daymapchallenge | Day 16 Cell | Fill the Hill 🦩 For the uninitiated, it might seem strange that a flock of flamingos descends on @uwmadison.bsky.social campus each fall. The “Fill the Hill” tradition goes back to a 1979 prank, when the Pail & Shovel Party covered Bascom Hill with 1008 flamingos.

A detailed 3D-style map of the Bascom Hill area on the UW–Madison campus. Buildings such as South Hall, North Hall, Bascom Hall, Birge Hall, the Education Building, the Law Building, Music Hall, and Science Hall are shown in white. Trees and landscaped areas are rendered in pale green. In the center of the map, the grassy slopes of Bascom Hill are filled with hundreds of small bright pink dots representing plastic flamingos. The text “Flamboyance of Flamingos” appears at the top. A footer notes design credits and the #30DayMapChallenge.

Infographic titled "CAPITOLS OF WISCONSIN" showing the abstract architectural evolution of the capitol buildings on Madison's square. It displays three minimalist diagrams: 1) 1837–1863 (A small, simple black center within a square garden), 2) 1857–1904 (A larger structure with wings, showing the start of the cross shape), and 3) 1906–PRESENT (A large, distinct cross-shaped building representing the current, four-winged capitol).

A topographic map titled "GLACIAL LAKE YAHARA" showing a massive, ancient body of water in the Yahara River valley. The blue water covers an area much larger than the current Madison lakes, connecting the areas now occupied by Lakes Mendota, Monona, Waubesa, and Kegonsa.

Minimalist map titled "LAKEFRONT ACCESS" showing the outlines of the four Madison lakes. The shoreline is color-coded to distinguish between Public access (green) and Private access (orange). Lake Wingra (the smallest, bottom left) is mostly green, while the shorelines of Mendota and Monona show a greater mix of green and orange.

30daymapchallenge | Day 9 Analog | Counties of Wisconsin I started this map the night before my triplets were born… too anxious to sleep, so I put my energy toward cutting out hundreds of magazine letters to spell out the 72 counties of #wisconsin ✂️

A map of Wisconsin created using a cut-paper collage technique, with the outline of the state filled entirely by the names of its counties. The county names (e.g., Douglas, Bayfield, Polk, Dane, Milwaukee) are rendered in various fonts, sizes, and paper colors (white, black, yellow, red, green), giving the map a textured, non-digital look. The background is solid green. The title "COUNTIES OF WISCONSIN" is in the upper right.

#30daymapchallenge | Day 8 Urban | Original Plat Map of Madison A stylization of the original 1836 plat of #Madison commissioned by Doty, envisioning a capital city between the “Four Lakes.” Anchored by a square, the plan's radiating avenues are reminiscent of L’Enfant’s plan for Washington DC.

A historical map titled "ORIGINAL PLAT OF THE TOWN OF MADISON ON THE FOUR LAKES, JULY 1, 1836." The plat features a grid-like street layout on the isthmus between what are labeled Fourth Lake (north) and Third Lake (south). The center is dominated by a Square. Several streets radiate from the Square. A dashed line near the Square is labeled Canal, indicating a proposed waterway connecting the two lakes. Street names like King St, Washington Ave, and Wilson St are visible. The map is minimalist, styled with black lines on a pale green background.

A colorful, illustrated map titled "LIBRARIES OF MADISON," framed in light wood. The map shows the major lakes and street network of Madison, Wisconsin, with hand-drawn building illustrations marking the locations of the ten Madison Public Library branches, including Central Library and the Imagination Center at Reindahl Park. The map also shows the route of the Dream Bus. The bottom text credits the design and illustration to Deckard Salm and Stephen Kennedy.

A map titled “Badger Parking” shows parking prices around Camp Randall Stadium in Madison, Wisconsin. The map uses shades of red and peach, with handwritten-style red labels indicating parking prices ranging from $20 to $60 across the surrounding neighborhoods. Prices are generally higher near the stadium and lower farther away. Streets like Regent Street, Monroe Street, and Breese Terrace are visible.

#30DayMapChallenge | Day 30 The Final Map | Bike Map of Madison 🚲 Been working on this map all year and still have a lot on my list to tweak, but closing out this year's series mapping Madison's great biking infrastructure. In collaboration w/ UW-Madison Geography alum Ben Cramer.

A stylized bike map of Madison, Wisconsin, highlighting cycling infrastructure throughout the city. Key bike routes are displayed in varying shades and patterns of blue: solid lines for permitted and off-street routes, dotted lines for signed routes, darker dashed lines for protected lanes, and lighter dashed lines for shared lanes. The map prominently features Lake Mendota at the top and Lake Monona near the center, with key bike trails like the Southwest Path, Capital City Trail, and Lake Loop marked. Green areas indicate parks, and the city's street network is visible in the background. The map is titled "Bike Map of Madison" with a legend in the top-left corner.

#30DayMapChallenge | Day 27 Micromapping | Tileset About as hyper-local a “map” I’ve ever made. A little axonometric diagram I made for myself to arrange tile pattern and calculate coverage for a bath renovation. First time tiling myself—extremely slow but very satisfying!

This image is titled “Tileset: Tile layout diagram for my bathroom renovation.” It features an isometric diagram of a bathroom showing the planned tile placement and measurements. Key elements include:
1. Flooring: Blue hexagonal tiles labeled “6-inch Hex” covering 52 square feet on the main floor and “2-inch Hex” covering 10 square feet in the shower area.
2. Shower walls: White rectangular tiles labeled “2x10-inch Field” on walls, with areas measured as 32.5, 22.6, 7, and 5.7 square feet.
3. Edge tiles: A section labeled “2x10-inch Long Edge Bullnose” with 3 linear feet for trim around the shower entry.
4. Additional notes: Measurements (square footage or linear footage) are indicated near each tile area.

#30DayMapChallenge | Day 26 Map projections | Homegrown Projection Did you know we have a well-known projection made right here in Madison? Developed by Arthur H. Robinson at @UWMadisonGeog in 1963, it attempts to minimize distortion of area and shape over most of the map.

This image is a visualization of the Robinson map projection titled “Homegrown Projection.” It features a world map with Tissot’s indicatrix—small orange ellipses—overlaid to show distortion. Key features are highlighted with annotations:
1. Top left: “Devised by Arthur H. Robinson in 1963 while a professor at UW-Madison” with an arrow pointing to “Madison, WI” on the map.
2. Bottom left: “Compromised distortion of area and angles (neither equal-area nor conformal).”
3. Bottom right: “Severe distortion at the poles, which are shown as lines rather than points.”
4. Top right: “Adopted by the National Geographic Society for general-purpose world maps from 1988 to 1998.”
