Google Maps mash-up charts London riots

Map overlay shows verified incidents related to riots

MediaUK.com managing director, James Cridland, (@JamesCridland) has created a Google Map mashup that charts the progress of the London riots that erupted in the wake of the shooting of taxi driver Mark Duggan by police.

The KML (Keyhole Markup Language) file used can be downloaded.

The map shows a list of 'verified incidents' (those reported by the media) relating to the riots and their location.
