@foss4g.org I hope we get to see a heap of Cartographic presentations and workshops. I feel we really don't have enough Cartographic training down here in Oceania! Do you agree? And if not, where would one go for more? 2025.foss4g.org/attend/call-... #foss4g #qgis

Big thanks to Randal Hale rjhale1971.bsky.social at North River Geographic for your blog using SLYR to convert an #ArcGISPro template to #QGIS. This is exactly what we had in mind when designing it. Oh, and we’ve already fixed the issue with Dynamic Text—it’ll be in the next update shortly!

Henrietta came into the store today. She was born in Palestine and asked me if I had any maps of the region. She told me about living in Bethlehem and Jerusalem and going on a motorcycle ride from Damascus to Istanbul. We got to travel together briefly with this 1946 map from National Geographic.

the Ability To Duplicate
Copying data from one place can be important, especially if governments are limiting access to public data. I wrote a little thing to demonstrate how to duplicate geospatial data w/ modern tooling (obstore, #stac, stac-geoparquet, etc).
