香港填海歷史地圖


Hong Kong’s natural terrain is extremely hilly and developable land is scarce. In order for it to become a metropolitan city that it is today, numerous land reclamation projects were carried out to create buildable land. It is estimated over 35% of its developed land area has been reclaimed from the sea . These projects create huge economic, social and environmental impacts, and therefore a geodatabase would be helpful to give spatial, temporal and historic context to these projects.

This mapping application aims to provide spatial and temporal reference to these land reclamation projects that has been altering the city significantly. The story of the hidden and still changing coastline of the city will be narrated through the interfacing of geographic data and historic photos.

香港的自然地勢山多平地少, 可供發展土地本身十分有限。 從開埠以來,香港經歷多項填海造地工程,最終成為今天這個大都市, 據估計,目前已開發的土地面積超過35%是又填海所得。這些項目創造了巨大的經濟,社會和環境的影響。利用地理空間數據庫,這地圖結合空間和時間元素,再配合歷史照片,贅述香港不斷變化的海岸線故事。
