12. Modern approaches to data and mapping and the case of the unexploded WW2 bomb

The city of Plymouth found itself back in the 1940s as an unexploded wartime bomb was discovered in a residential area. Ordnance Survey was part of the huge effort to get it safely moved in one of the largest operations of its kind since World War 2.
