BBC has a new interactive tool on their website called ‘Dimensions’ that takes important places and events and overlays them on a map of whatever location you choose, to help in realizing the size. To put it simply:
Dimensions takes important places, events and things, and overlays them onto a map of where you are.
This has been done before with things like the 2010 Gulf Oil Spill but this new tool offers far more data points like historical cities, festivals, and space.
