And here is a cylindrical map matching the geometry of the photomosaic, made by reprojecting and combining the two sides of the previous post. #maps

More on Hyperion. I made a shaded relief drawing based on those images (from the individual images, not from the mosaic). Again it is somewhat of an over-interpretation, For instance I convinced myself that there were grooves or other linear features on the northern rim of the largest crater (only its northern rim and a central mound are visible, on the left map of the two). Cassini shows there are no such linear features.

Another quick look at Chang'e 6 today. This is a very preliminary map of the landing site with the rover path (approximate) and other details. This map will evolve as we start to see papers and presentations about the mission. #maps

I'm making physical large maps from OpenStreetMap data and electoral boundaries. It must be election time!

'Over 50 young creators from around 20 cities in 10 European countries gathered in Prague over the last few days for the first ever USE-IT map conference to be held in Czechia. These free, non-commercial maps are intended to promote sustainable tourism by giving young travellers tips on where to go without spending a lot of money and how to blend in and act like a local.'

Another version of the map with radius contours (numbers in kilometres). The outline of the map is the shape's convex hull so it doesn't show the deep valley which divides the asteroid into two lobes. Of course, what we really need is a flyby mission with a camera. Luckily there was one later.

Getting ready to head to Salt Lake City for a conference, checking What3Words before I go so I don't get lost:

Are there any good software/websites that let you add notes to a map?
I'd like to write down notes of places in China where friends live or I have visited, to help me learn the geography.

@guerda @matias
indeed, uMap is opensource, and used by many OSM people.

It's also used by @jon to map the crossborder rail trip :)

Here is a 'finder chart' (a term borrowed from astronomy. Don't tell anyone) for the Chang'e 6 landing site.

Departing from the current theme today: it appears the Chang'e 6 landing has been successful, so here is an updated lunar sites map:

Why I 🧡 the web:

Someone made a customizable "shadow map": Every mountain, building and tree shadow mapped for any date and time.
