Honored to have spent the week at #COP16 in Cali, Colombia with my co-conspirators, technical collaborators, and good friends from Awana Digital. The week before, we established integration between #CoMapeo and #GuardianConnector.
Inspired by Google's move to remove @organicmaps from the Playstore without warning, I finally decided to move my > 3,000 Google Maps saved places to Organic Maps. To facilitate doing this for others' benefit, I made a quick webpage to convert your Google Maps GeoJSON data to a KMZ that renders well in Organic Maps.
A few photos from the past week in #Suriname, where our team got the opportunity to learn from and support the #Wayana Indigenous community on their biocultural indicators for wellbeing, and building a digital platform where they control all of their data.
Sharing a few impressions from a recent visit to the beautiful island of #Malaita in the Solomons, to work with our partners Mai Maasina to support the 'Are'are community on mapping and monitoring, and discuss an Indigenous data sovereignty protocol for the Malaita communities.
I was reminded by a forum post that I recently put together this proof-of-concept of Stellarstories, an idea to extend @TerrastoriesApp to storytelling about the cosmos. It's just a basic demo of what it could look like, using the highly customizable d3-celestial library.
I've been admiring the Field Mapping Tasking Manager being built by HOTOSM.
While this tool is oriented to OSM mapping workflows, it's self-hostable, and the overall functionality (and specific components like the modal to generate offline tiles) can be useful for many of us.
