Seen from directly above, London becomes one continuous surface of railway approaches, roof patterns, docks and open spaces in London the Photographic Atlas. Published in 2000, the atlas combines Getmapping's aerial photography with the organisation of an atlas, recording the capital around the millennium from the City and Westminster to Hoxton, Islington and Farringdon. The railway land at Euston and the courts of Smithfield contrast with the royal parks, dense housing and the commercial blocks around Liverpool Street and Broadgate, and the photographs preserve buildings and land uses on large sites since redeveloped.
