First of all, get hold of some maps of the coast to locate the various places that we visited on the fieldtrip.
Digital options:
- Digimap for Schools - we have a subscription to this service - this is the best option - ask your teachers for a login and password and you can create PDF maps
- ArcGIS Online - also has analytical tools such as heat maps. For this you'll need to geo-locate your questionnaires
- Stamen: Watercolor and Toner maps - these provide a nice attractive map for front covers, but the Toner maps can also be useful for marking on data, or adding other features.
- Field Papers - produce your own atlas essentially....
Paper options
- Ordnance Survey maps are available in the department for most areas of the UK
There are also some more local maps of the coastline, including a useful map which takes OS data but produces a strip map which runs along the coast. These were for sale from shops in Cromer, so if you're planning to head back to finesse your data collection or get some more photos then keep an eye out for them.
Support for students from my school (and others) who are taking part in fieldwork on the Norfolk Coast, for Geography at KS2, KS3, GCSE or 'A' level, or just for the fun of it.

Mapping our Shores
We will also be able to make use of this resource as a SECONDARY data source.
It is a mapping project by the National Trust.
It explores how the land is used around the coast, and
See the Geographical magazine article for the full details..
A Secondary data source is one which has not been collected by you personally.
