Michael Jones, passed away on January 18, leaving behind at least one innovative gift to society, the power of maps in our hands.

He democratised and personalised the map, and in the process made it evolve from the age-old static portrait of the Earth, to a dynamic and interactive conversation. Anusuya Datta explains.
