On the permanent Sandbank Griend there is this small observation tower for wildlife researchers. You can even walk there in Google Streetview. Maybe not so remote after all!

To finish this off, some new places I got to know by to making this map: Het Verdronken Land van Saeftinge is a beautiful tidal area in Zeeland where water from the river and sea meet.

With the FOCI tool in Fiji I was able to find the brightest points within the image. The value of these points tell the distance in pixels. After calculating the scale of the image I was able to get the distance in meters.

I found large raster images of all railroads and roads in the Netherlands and merged them in Photoshop to a black and white image. I used that image to create an EDM in Fiji. In Photoshop I masked out all bodies of water on the EDM because I was only interested in places on land.

An EDM can be used to find the distance to the closest road for every point on the map. For every pixel in an image it calculates the distance to the closest active pixel (road). The active pixel has a distance of 0, the pixel next to it 1, and so on.

I used Fiji, an open-source image analysis tool for scientific images. Researchers use it for analyzing microscope imagery but it also supports making Euclidian Distance Maps (EDM).
