Locate Modern Addresses on Earth from 750 Million Years Ago through the Present
Fantastic map by Ian Webster to spend a Sunday morning exploring. From Kottke.org:
Ian Webster built a tool to plot modern addresses on a map of the Earth from up to 750 million years ago. Just input an address and it’ll find where that spot of land was on the Earth at a given time. The tool defaults to a view from 240 million years ago, smack in the middle of the Pangaea supercontinent era, but you can select views from 750 million years ago right up to the present.
