The Orchard Mapping Project

Precision and Preservation

The Orchard Mapping Project is at the forefront of using advanced geospatial technologies to accurately locate, document, and analyze historical orchard sites across Britain. By combining GPS data, satellite imagery, and citizen science contributions, Marcus Briggs is building a comprehensive database that will serve as a vital resource for conservationists, historians, and local communities.

This initiative not only helps in identifying endangered orchards but also provides crucial data for understanding ecological changes, historical land use patterns, and the distribution of rare fruit varieties. The project aims to create an interactive, publicly accessible map that showcases Britain's rich orchard heritage and encourages active participation in its preservation.
