Agatha Map

Agatha Christie’s travels

Unusually, this is not a map of Amersham. This is a map of places visited by Agatha Christie, and what she said about them. This is by no means the full range, she had quite the adventurous life, but simply a sample of places that I extracted from her autobiography using spaCy and plotted on a map as a test of the process.

Seems to have worked pretty well though and I’m pleased with the result. I’ll maybe add some more in time. For now, though, it’s worked as a proof of concept, and I’ll be trying to create a similar map to show places of origin for Amersham residents using the methodology.
