The Geograph® Britain and Ireland project aims to collect geographically
representative photographs and information for every square kilometre of Great Britain and
Ireland, and you can be part of it.
Since 2005, 13,183 contributors have submitted 6,469,801 images covering 280,449 grid squares, or 84.4% of the total squares
What is Geographing?
- It's a game - how many grid squares will you contribute?
- It's a geography project for the people
- It's a national photography project
- It's a good excuse to get out more!
- It's a free and open online community project for all
Registration is free so come and join us and see how many grid squares you submit!

, the author of Map Addict, On Red Hill and Mapping the Roads, has agreed to become the first ever Patron of the Geograph project.
Mike thinks Geograph "is exactly what the internet was invented for."
He uses Geograph for book research and for leisure and is fascinated by maps and the land that they show. He hopes to "help Geograph develop further in finding new generations of explorers, photographers, writers and map addicts."
