This visualisation shows changing land usage on the home farm of the Courtown Estate, Co. Wexford between 1915 and 1928.
I scanned a second series Ordnance Survey map and uploaded it to ArcGIS where I georeferenced it. I then digitised those fields that made up the home farm, creating a layer for each of the years. In the attribute table I noted the land use. Using the time slider functionality I created this visualisation.
Note the symbology:
-
Brown - land 'in hand'
-
Green - let land
-
Grey - land not let
-
Purple - land taken up by the Land Commission
