Our current Task of the Week was created during the MNU meeting in Munich. The city offers great architectural possibilities to use MathCityMap, for example the Diana Temple in the […]

Fountains and their volume are ideal for modeling different geometric bodies. While many of the fountains have a rectangular or circular shape and can thus be approximated as cuboid or […]

With this great summer weather, it is no wonder that the math trailers move outside. We are very pleased that this week the 4000 task border was reached in the […]

As part of the ICM conference in Rio de Janeiro, Iwan Gurjanow created the first tasks in South America. In the resulting trail, our current Task of the Week is […]

With our GPS tasks, such as the walking of a north-south line, we have already presented a first way how to connect the directions with MathCityMap. But many statues also […]

Doing mathematics surrounded by a fantastic setting – that promises the current Task of the Week to the statue of Diogenes of Sinope. Known as an influential Greek philosopher, he […]

The city center of Münster provides several different tasks as one can notice within the portal map. Also in the trail around the Aasee, Münster presents itself from a various […]

Today’s update fixes a bug that has been around since the beginning of the portal and that you’ve almost gotten used to: Images that were taken upright were not interpreted […]

MathCityMap was mentioned in the Mainpost Gemünden. Read the English version below. With ruler and measuring tape, two classes of the Theodosius Florentini School ran a math trail in Gemünden’s […]
