- -= Topographer =-
-
-
- Topographer is a major application for the Geography curriculum which allows
- children (and teachers) to have lots of fun whilst learning all about maps,
- contour lines, valleys, rivers etc. In fact Topographer covers virtually all
- items found on Ordnance Survey maps.
-
- The real breakthrough with Topographer is its 3D section which allows you to
- convert a 2D map into a 3D model on screen. Imagine turning a set of flat
- contour lines on a 2D map into a 3D model which clearly shows the hill - no
- more cardboard cutout models or papier mache ! You define where you look
- from, what you look at.
-
- Topographer also covers aspects of the IT and maths curriculum with its
- modelling capabilities. Just stop for a minute and think of the projects
- that the children could do with Topographer. You could make a map of the
- local area with churches, pubs, woods, hills etc and then view it from
- various places. If there is a new bypass proposed you could add it in to the
- existing landscape and see where it is visible from and what impact it is
- likely to have on the community. I'm sure you can think of a hundred and one
- topics.
