#30DayMapChallenge · Day 21 · Icons. Lighthouses of the Pacific. Yes...I've done lots of lighthouse maps but not in this projection. I still like it—there's nothing like path-traced points of light realistically rendered.

Tree height map of Montréal. See the blank space without any trees in the middle? If you aren't from Montréal, what do you think that is? :)

Forest canopy height of beautiful Shikotsu-Toya National Park, Hokkaido. I rather like how the mountains look like holes and are distinguishable from the lakes by looking at the way the canopy height changes.

A visualisation of forest canopy height in Shiretoko National Park, Hokkaido, two ways. Which do you prefer? I can never decide. What I can say is that Shiretoko is beautiful. And windy. And the sika are unafraid. Also, hot waterfalls.
