🌍 Exciting news! We're thrilled to announce the launch of the FOSS4G 2024 website 🚀. Join us this December in Belém do Pará for the ultimate geospatial open source event. Stay tuned for updates and get ready to explore the world of geospatial technology! 🗺️ #FOSSG2024#foss4g#osgeo#gis#geo#brazil
1/ Still buzzing from such a wonderful night last week! The inaugural #geomobEDI was such a breath of fresh air. A welcoming and diverse crowd - geoenthusiasts, students, people who work in all kinds of capacity directly or indirectly related to #geo people who have established business in geo, and seasoned university professors. If you missed it, hope you will join us next time - on June 25th!
What's a good site to share small geo datasets for people to explore?
I wanna share my long roads data, and allow people to browse a map, and filter based on the properties of each feature. I can make a simple html map viewer myself, but that's a lot of work each time. Is there like a geo-spreadsheet web app I can use instead?
Github Gists can show a map from GeoJSON, but don't allow filtering, right?
All roads used to lead to Rome, now the longest road in Europe avoids it. 🤣
The longest road¹ in Europe in #OpenStreetMap is the Autostrada Adriatica in Italy, at 774 km. It goes from Bologna to Taranto, and avoids Rome as much as possible by going along the Adriatic Coast of Italy.
The second-longest road in Europe is at 667 km from Moscow to St. Petersburg «Нева» which is the M-11 motorway. No, I don't know why it's called Нева in OSM. Wikipedia tells me that's a river… 🤔
Here's the top 1000 longest roads in Europe (connected OSM highway's with the same name tag). Shortest is ~53 km long. (lots hidden behind others).
This shows some clear regional differences, which might have more with how data is mapped in #OpenStreetMap, but might also reflect how different cultures name roads.
Some people would take a photo. I shot 156 * 48MP = 7.3Gpx of data, computed a 3d model in WebODM and rendered it with moody lighting in Blender, as one does.

Really enjoyed @freyfogle ‘s gathering of like-minded #geo people last night in #Clerkenwell, including the place where the real #business got done afterwards!
Ich habe eines kleines #bier getrinken und viel #mapioCymru gemacht!

Re-Posting einer wichtigen Frage: Brauchst du wirklich ein VPN? Wahrscheinlich nicht, denn die meisten Versprechungen der VPN-Anbieter sind bei näherer Betrachtung nur heiße Luft. Etwas Aufklärung. 👇
