I like to make maps. Below are links to a number of my cartography projects, as well as a few other visual experiments (data viz, sketches, notes, "art", etc.). These projects vary quite a bit in terms of scope, scale, process, and purpose. They are somewhat ordered chronologically by creation date. Most are available under Creative Commons licenses.
I also create interactive maps and visual essays as part of my current role as Lead, Data Visualization at the School of Cities. Check out some of this work here.
I occasionally take on freelance cartography and data visualization work. I tend to only take on smaller bespoke projects that focus on the visual design of maps and charts. Feel free to reach out to me at jeff.allen@utoronto.ca if you're interested, or if you have any comments or questions about anything that you see below.
