Cartographic design
Do you need a map to help get your story across or to show complex information in a user-friendly way?
Clare Seldon is a freelance cartographer who specialises in mapping for major events and the movement of people, but has made maps for many different markets.
Please see the portfolio page or get in touch if you would like to discuss collaborations or lecturing opportunities.
Mapping styles
My 25 years of experience has covered many different types and styles of mapping, here are a few areas I specialise in and have extensive experience creating. If you have another map in mind just ask me about it!
Creating maps to support navigation primarily by foot
Maps for the promotion and encouragment of cycle and walking routes
Bespoke mapping to support and promote your sporting event to expert panels and to enhance visitor experience
Maps for the promotion of bus, rail, ferry or vehicular routes – including strategic, policy and planning expertise, and schematic design
Some of my favourite projects…
