S African develops free submarine cables map. Durban-based software developer and occasional TechCentral columnist Greg Mahlknecht has built a free map showing the world’s submarine telecommunications cable systems.
The map, which took Mahlknecht several months to complete, is free of charge and will remain so. It’s available at cablemap.info. “I saw the Telegeography map and wanted one, but found it cost US$250,” he says. “I didn’t want it that badly and looked for a free alternative to print out but couldn’t find one. I realised a free version needed to be made.” GNIS Feature Search. Google Map Buddy Generates High Resolution, Full Size Area Maps.
