Alright #Mapstodon #OpenStreetMap There's still / again broad scale vandalism going on in our beloved map 😓 So let's clarify a couple of things! 🤓 There are practically zero checks for what goes into the OpenStreetMap database. You can create an account and delete a city. It'll be in the database immediately. The thinking is that the community will spot it and fix it ("self-healing map") and there are tools to check for vandalism in the map. 1/n Whatever is in the OpenStreetMap database will get rendered into a map you'll see on Rendering and re-rendering the whole planet Earth continuously is expensive and takes a while. The result is cached so that whenever you go to that website you see the map immediately. 2/n The #Geomob meetup today showed me that the #Geo scene is live and vibrant in #Berlin ✨ I haven't been to many geo events in the past four years, Geo Berlin and Maptime Berlin were my go-to choices back then 🗺️ Exciting to see some old faces and many many new ones at #GeomobBER today ☺️ Lot's of cool little projects, anecdotes, and good vibes all around! 🍻 Everything You Wanted to Know About Vector Tiles (But Were Afraid to Ask) 🗾✨ https://www.openstreetmap.org/user/daniel-j-h/diary/404061 I collected my thoughts on vector maps and vector tiles after having spent some time reading the mvt spec for the first time 🦧💡 Happy year of #OpenStreetMap vector maps! 🎉 I genuinely feel like #Protomaps is not nearly getting the attention it deserves We can drop a single file on a static host and get stylable vector maps? Magic ✨ In combination with Maplibre it's a game changer for 99% of web map use cases 👏

 @djh 💯 When I read the idea for the pmtiles format i thought it was so obvious, and simple and yet no-one had every thought of doing that. I've been *very* happy with pmtiles (via tippecanoe) for my river map https://amandasaurus.github.io/osm-river-basins/  @djh Absolutely. People just don't know about it. I plan to write an article on geo in cloud, but first I have to leave my job :)

@djh Time to run the Android app on a PC emulator. Then no power-saving shenanigans. Either #BlueStacks or Win11. Doesn't get you away from multiple OS shenanigans, nor the ridiculousness of running critical logic on Android, but better than relying on a phone device whose entire purpose is to shut itself off.  Nothing remotely as important as an insulin pump, but this makes sense of one of my apps not working properly, so thanks for sharing! @djh How scary! An app killing software that could literally kill someone. and I wanna scream out to the makers of these automated things, let me customize my own tech, a life may depend on it... and in this case, a life literally does. |
