Another one of those individual scale / company scale battle maps.

Noteworthy here is the permanent Mist covering the area centred around the huge dead tree - the home of Fallen Nymph (Mist Nymph), who has transformed from a nature spirit into a twisted Mist entity.

Bore da! I see that the Welsh Senedd has got new constituencies for the 2026 elections; 16 in total, each electing 6 Members. So our old Senedd hex cartogram is out-of-date.

I've created a new hex layout at https://open-innovations.org/projects/hexmaps/editor/?../maps/wales-senedd-constituencies-2026.hexjson It's hard to keep a good shape/neighbours with only 16 hexes.

Are you based in Wales? If so, could you have a look and see what could be improved? (That link doesn't magically save anything so manually save any edits you make).

A layout of 16 hexes to represent constituencies of the Welsh Parliament

Last week, I released a trio of hex-map templates. They’re a couple of bucks on Itch (or free for paying patrons). Any monies go to support the channel. If you need some hexy templates, check them out! https://hexed.press/publications/handy-dandy-hex-map-templates/

Schon vier Monate her, aber bisher an mir vorbei gegangen.

Andreas Åkre Solberg hat eine innovative Hexmap der deutschen Landkreise erstellt. Anders als herkömmliche Karten stellt sie jeden Landkreis gleich groß als Hexagon dar –ideal für Analysen, bei denen jeder Landkreis gleich bedeutend ist. #DataViz #Hexmap #GIS

Hello, I made a lil zine!
Edit: And I just published it on itch: https://kikithegecko.itch.io/how-to-make-hex-maps-from-fabric

Feel free to send me a DM if you want one (or more) printed and assembled copies in exchange for shipping costs (I am located in Germany) + pay what you want.

Handwritten zine "how to make hex maps from fabric by kikithegecko" that lays on a quilted hex map made from green and blue hexes

Inside view, a spread. Left side says "ready your needle and thread". A needle with thread is drawn beneath, arrows indicating "thin" and "double knot". The right side says "put two hexes together, align one edge". In between the two lines is the drawing of two hexes, with arrows adding text "fabric sides facing" and "hold in place with clip".

I discovered that the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero publish domestic solar capacity by constituency so here's a #hexmap: https://constituencies.open-innovations.org/themes/energy/solar/

A hex cartogram showing the installed capacity of solar in MW. The scale goes up to 25MW. The capacity tends to be in the South West, west Wales, bits of East Anglia and the north of Scotland. The cities have less capacity. London is a large hole.

How the unemployment rate has changed from March 2019 to March 2025: https://constituencies.open-innovations.org/themes/economy/unemployment/
#cartogram #hexmap

Hex cartogram of UK constituencies. Unemployment is generally higher everywhere other than the South East and East of England. It is highest in parts of Birmingham, then the North East, and North West. The highest rate is 8% in Birmingham Perry Barr.

Hex cartogram of UK constituencies. In March 2025, unemployment has risen in most places. It is highest in Birmingham and parts of Bradford. The highest rate is 16.3% in Birmingham Perry Barr. Nine constituencies are over 10%.

I've attempted to create a hex map showing the number of NHS (equivalent) dentists by constituency for the whole of the UK: https://constituencies.open-innovations.org/themes/health/dentists/ This adds in data for Scotland and Northern Ireland.

#cartogram #hexmap #ukpol #dentists

A hex cartogram of UK constituencies coloured by the number of NHS (or Public Health Scotland, or Health Social Care Northern Ireland) dentists. The colour scale goes from 0 to 30+. Parts of central and north west London, Northern Ireland, and Scotland have more dentists per constituency. The Cities of London and Westminster have 36 NHS dentists, Glasgow North has 33, Belfast South and Mid Down has 31. Stoke-on-Trent South, South Northamptonshir, and South Norfolk only have 5 dentists.

Working on a new #hexmap https://www.instagram.com/share/BAF4_gugcm

After doing the East of England and getting Lon-done, I've started arranging ward hexes for a few local authorities in the South East. But I'm tired.

Do any fans of wards (or cartograms) from the South East want to help by arranging some of those local authorities?

If so, here's the link for arranging hexes https://open-innovations.org/projects/hexmaps/editor/?https://open-innovations.github.io/uk-wards-2024/E12000008.hexjson&labels=true

It can be useful to have my ward map visible on your screen too https://open-innovations.github.io/uk-wards-2024/wards.html

#hexmap #cartogram

A hex cartogram being built. Some local authorities appear as contiguous groups. The rest of the ward hexes are spread around placed relative to their geography.

That's wards Lon-done https://open-innovations.org/projects/hexmaps/editor/?https://open-innovations.github.io/uk-wards-2024/E12000007.hexjson&labels=true

#hexmap #cartogram

A hex cartogram of London wards. The wards are contiguous for each London borough with gaps between boroughs. It roughly resembles London.

Finally finished arranging wards in the East of England https://open-innovations.org/projects/hexmaps/editor/?https://open-innovations.org/projects/hexmaps/maps/uk-wards-2024.hexjson

#hexmap #cartogram #UKgeography

A hex cartogram of UK wards. Wards within each local authority are grouped together. There are gaps between local authorities. Scotland, Northern Ireland, Wales, the North East, North West, Yorkshire, East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England and South West are all arranged. The South East and London are missing.

I've made a hex map of candidate spending during the 2024 UK General Election using data that was published by the Electoral Commission https://constituencies.open-innovations.org/themes/society/candidate-spending/

A colleague has created a constituency hex map showing transport stops (bus stops, tram/metro stops, and train stations) using NaPTAN: https://constituencies.open-innovations.org/themes/transport/transport-stops/

The tram/metro visualisation is also pulling out tourist lines e.g. Snowdon mountain railway and Scarborough tramway.
