everything is terrible / but now you can search the @sfomuseum.bsky.social aviation collection website by colour / you can also refine arbitrary other-property searches by colour too / blog post to follow – collection.sfomuseum.org/objects/colo...

in news that will likely only be of interest (let alone mean anything) to a handful of people / and an equal number of AI scraper bots / all the images in the "orthis" archive now have IIIF manifests / it's hard to overstate how dorky IIIF is but it works – projectmirador.org/embed/?iiif-...

there is now a go-whosonfirst-spatial-wasm package which provides a webassembly binary for doing client-side in-memory point-in-polygon queries and is meant as a compliment to the privacy-enbettering "point-in-polygon-with-maptile" stuff I mentioned the other day – github.com/whosonfirst/...

version 7 of the go-iiif package has been published / and while mostly an under-the-hood release other highlights include / adding "airplane walrus" to the suite of test images / and the ability to generate level 0 static tiles from a plain vanilla csv file #golang #iiif – github.com/go-iiif/go-i...
