At two o’clock in the morning on 19th July 2004, 36 Young Explorers, with nine Leaders arrived at their camp site in the shadow of Longido in northern Tanzania some one hundred kilometres to the east of Ol Doinyo Lengai. 

These Young Explorers were a BES expedition who would walk across the savanna on the floor of the Rift Valley to Ol Doinyo Lengai then climb its steep flanks before trekking across the Crater Highlands to mankind’s birthplace at Oldupai Gorge on the edge of the Serengeti plains.

This was a five week BES expedition to the Gregory Rift in northern Tanzania.  On returning from Tanzania a ‘blog’ site was set up by Hugh Anderson to make the ‘science’ carried out during the expedition available to anyone interested in the material, and to provide a site where members of the expedition could tell their story.  This ‘blog’ was no longer evolving so this new site has been created by Hugh Anderson to replace it.

A potted history of Hugh’s career was published in Geomatics World on his retirement from Leica Geosystems.

This site is continually evolving with photographs and panoramas added from time to time and information on creating your own panoramas.

One evolution of the site is to include links and information on projects in the area visited by the Young Explorers in 2004 in Northern Tanzania around the Arusha area.  These are projects local to the area, which are helping the people in the region to find their way out of poverty as epitomised by the School of St Jude’s motto “Fighting Poverty Through Education”.  The projects are always looking for Volunteers and Sponsors to progress their work and you can find more information by visiting  my East Africa page.

This site also contains a section on Photographic Intersection, the low cost method of using photographs to accurately measure and record points in three dimensions.

The site has continued to grow with information added about the Ancient Technology Centre in Cranborne, Dorset, and The Church of St Mary in Easton Neston, Northamptonshire.

There is no connection between BES expedition to Tanzania in 2004, The Church of St Mary in Easton Neston and the Ancient Technology Centre in Cranborne other than they all involve me and share the same site as the material posted here is generated by me.

A site that is being developed to relate specifically to panoramic photography to show the potential of this media and how it is able to convey much more than words or single images.

If a picture is worth a thousand words then a panorama must be worth ten thousand, especially a 360° (or spherical) panorama where you can look all around and in any direction you wish to.

Measurements fro 360° Panoramas   Measurements from 360° (Spherical) Panoramas
360° Panoramas have properties that can enable Angles (both Horizontal and Vertical) to be derived from various projections in the same way as using a Theodolite.
The Angles measured from two or more 360° Panoramas can be used to derive Measurements and Co-ordinates.

Cracking Nuts – they are absolutely passionate about nuts, natural ingredients and North Devon!
Cracking Nuts was born in early Spring in 2014 after it struck them just how moorish and tasty the humble nut can be.
They have found a 200 year old German recipe and by experimenting with it a little have come up with a traditional range of sweet cinnamon, salty and chilli roasted peanuts, cashews and almonds, all with our own unique modern twist.
