Using 2D photos to create a 3D model which can settle the question: Was he or she offside?
The first Philadelphia Union goal against Columbus Crew back on May 10, from the free kick? I have it as 8 inches offside. Honestly, a _lot_ closer than I expected. Still feel like VAR could have intervened but this info makes it look less obvious than I originally thought.

The Atlanta United goal against @austinfootballclub.bsky.social back from almost a month ago? Sorry for the delay, but it looks like it was onside. Only by 3" by the model, but no reason to think it wasn't onside from this

The offside in El Traffico? That took LA Galaxy's Gabriel Pec's goal off the board? I have it as 9-10 inches offside. That's with a relatively conservative guess on position of the 2LD, so could be more.

That @nashvillesc.bsky.social goal line situation? I have it as 3/8" inside the goal. Given the difficulties of the model and esp. goal-line situations, I can't be sure that it was or was not a goal.

OK, so that St. Louis goal against Columbus called back? I have it as 6 inches onside.

I will say that it's harder than it looks b/c 2LD here has his foot off the ground so it isn't as easy as just following the lines in the grass.
