#30daymapchallenge day 24 places and their (favorite dog) names

Inspired by a moment yesterday where my family and I realized we had been accidentally watching over two hours of the prelim rounds of the national dog show instead of the finals 😆🐩

Happy GIS Day! 🌍❣️

Felt fitting that the theme of the #30DayMapChallenge was projections today! I want to dive into the math behind these sometime, it’s fascinating!!

I read in the news that the Pack Fire in California has burned over 3,000 acres since Thursday. Sadly fitting for today's theme!

Since I'm learning MapLibre, I decided to re-create the map I saw using open-source tools!

In 2024, 46.9% of net electricity generated in the EU came from renewable energy sources (Eurostat). In the first half of 2025, renewable energy has outpaced coal as the primary source of electricity globally, indicating a shift in our reliance on fossil fuels (NPR). 🌞

Not to the theme today, just was inspired by maps in the news and went on my own route!

Made in QGIS!

#30DayMapChallenge Day 4: My Data

Today I built a mini dataset and recorded a demo of my new FOS web app called #Click2Vector!

Users can click on the interactive map to make a point dataset for export, or import lat/long from Google Sheets!

Limited on time today, so focused mainly on understanding and prepping US census data in Python with a quick visualization in @datawrapper.de !

Javier Jiménez Shaw gave a great talk yesterday at #FOSS4Ge called “Mercator is your friend,” in defense of cartographers’ most hated map projection. Today, Mercator is also my grocery store. 😆😁

Ah, what a week- I love being around fellow map nerds! 🗺️🧭🌍🛰️

Had a great convo yesterday at #FOSS4GEurope about how newcomers can start contributing to open source: it’s all about fixing the bugs that are bothering you in the libraries or tools you already use, or adding features you wish they had! I really liked that perspective 🙂

Had a blast at #geomob Berlin yesterday! Nerded out about the math behind different projections for longer than I’d like to admit and left feeling inspired! 🌍🩵
10/ Great talks that had given us lots to think about and discuss. We headed to the very nearby Hofbräu Haus Berlin where the #geobeers 🍻were paid for by our sponsors:

- mapular https://www.mapular.com
- OpenCage https://opencagedata.com

Please check them out, the event would not be possible
