Roundup of web projects

Is it spring in the air or LinkedIn's new (to me) facility to post projects? Here is a round-up of various projects in the past five years as recently posted on my LinkedIn page:

Medieval Fenlands GIS
April 2010 to March 2012
Also: Sue Oosthuizen, Frances Wilmoth
The recent release of UK Ordnance Survey OpenData opened the opportunity to post H.C. Darby's data from The Medieval Fenland and The Drainage of the Fens of East Anglia in the eastern UK. And parishes are the geographic unit that remained constant since the Middle Ages.

This is a sample dataset off the CLIWOC database. This subset tabulates the captain's ship's logs for the period 1750 to 1850, and document the fascinating voyages of exploration in that period. Started on ArcGIS Explorer now on ArcGIS Online.
