Field notes
The atlas records details such as height, dates and light characteristics, and offers browsing by coast. Separate sections collect keeper stories, travel notes and a signal demo that lets readers select a characteristic and watch its rhythm. The homepage reports 118 visits across 21 countries, 19,870 steps climbed and three nights spent in a keeper’s room; Holt says entries are corrected when readers write in.
