An interactive map showing the location of bombs dropped on London during World War II has been created.:
Dr Kate Jones, the University of Portsmouth geographer who devised the project, said: “When you look at these maps and see the proliferation of bombs dropped on the capital, it does illustrate the meaning of the word Blitz, which comes from the German meaning lightning.Users can zoom in to specific streets on the map, which uses red symbols to illustrate where each bomb landed.The project was funded by education and research charity Jisc which offers resources and expertise to educational organisations.
