The state of Welsh-language mapping
Our Mapio Cymru project has recent published a post about Welsh-language digital mapping services.
At the time of writing:
- It is very straightforward to build web mapping applications in English.
- It isn’t at all straightforward to build web mapping applications in Welsh. It is possible to build them in Welsh though.
- We’d like to encourage public bodies and other organisations serving the people of Wales to look into how they can build bilingual mapping applications. The more organisations working on this problem the more solutions will be developed.We will carry on working on this area and we would love to hear from others with questions or ideas about welsh language and bilingual mapping.
