Just fixed a tiny math issue in #QGIS' ambient occlusion code. Checkout how much smoother the results are now! Original version on the left (with the bug), fixed version on the right... 🥳

So... Given the old school #gischat vibes here, who'd like to see the "30 days of QGIS" advent calendar make a comeback? 🎄

I've been progressively (manually!) deleting my old twitter activity, and re-reading all that content really reinforced how great the geo-twitter community used to be. I'm hopefully we can resurrect that here!

Here's one week of ocean tides animated across Australasia (🔵= high tide, 🔴 = low tide). 🌊 Pretty incredible how complex (and hypnotic!) they are!

Well this is certainly a much more interesting place to be than it was a fortnight ago! (From a mappy perspective at least 🥳)

Hey @alexgleith.bsky.social do you know if anyone has collated a list of organisations from FOSS4G oceania who advertised vacancies last week? Asking for some friends who couldn't attend...
