How Micro-Graphics Went from an Afterthought to an Aesthetic These tiny schematic visuals can feel chaotic, yet there’s an order in their structure.

YouTube video by The Late Show with Stephen Colbert Rep. James Talarico On Confronting Christian Nationalism, And Strange Days In The Texas Legislature

Trump’s propaganda czar Brendan Carr and Trump-controlled CBS refused to let Colbert air his interview with James Talarico. You can watch the interview here, and it already has 1.4M views. youtu.be/oiTJ7Pz_59A?...

This the kind of thing I'm guessing he might have have in his mouth...

Would be a small led light in mouth, easy to close lips around. What makes me think he has one is light in his mouth and light on the ground go on/off together a couple times in vid. If that was reflected, there would be one cast at all times from bag reflectors which have to be brighter than teeth.

If you don't look at his face, just the ground around him at the moments there is a bright spot in his mouth, you can see it's casting light on the ground, just a few blips for a split second. I get what you mean about hot spots in the video from teeth etc. but they can't cast light like that.

Traffic circles are apparently an intelligence test and a LOT of you are failing!

Nice! Sorry to have missed this.

Skull N arrow, for treasure maps!

Interesting, mine didn’t. But it is a suspicious site. Just trying to help answer a question from the maps-l email list. Thought someone in the gischat o sphere might be familiar w it

#gischat anyone familiar with this project? usmaps.com

There's not a lot of info in the About section, no data sources, no authors or cartographers listed.

Ice list wiki QR because Meta keeps removing from it's platforms. Copy and spread as needed!

If a river is always flowing, is it even the same river all the time?

I was consulting your hefty tome Cartography just yesterday and I can confirm, you are most distinguished! Cheers. 🍻

Bovino removed from his role as US Border Patrol commander at large, The Atlantic reports Gregory Bovino has been removed from his role as the "commander at large" for the U.S. Border Patrol and will return to his former job in California, where he is expected to retire soon, the Atlantic ...

Bovino should now be tried, convicted, tarred, and feathered. Fuck Bovino, fuck ICE, fuck Trump,

Looking for examples of geospatial/mappy tangible art and data visualization stuff. The kind of stuff you'd want to see in the lobby of a crazy futuristic mega corp in the next Bladerunner movie... maybe. Stuff you can touch and interact with, or just hangs on the wall and blows your mind. #gischat

Same but it’s DH students asking for it as ready to use GIS data. 😐

Look what arrived: Just bought two original hand-painted prints from Møns and Stevns Cliffs, Denmark, from 1851. These are photorealistic, made in collaboration by some of the best artists and scientists of the era.

Just add water: 3D printed rotational landslide.

Working on improving these models so the print files can be shared for outreach and teaching.

One of the best map legends I've ever seen From a French colonial atlas on the Mekong River.

Honestly, labeling is THE thing that makes most maps and the subtleties involved are probably more than AI can do correctly 100% of the time. At least for the foreseeable future.

NPR finally catching up to my 1990's intro to Geography classes! 🌎

Map of the Kalalau Valley Trail on the island of Kauai.

Simplified trail map of the Kalalau Trail. A grueling 11 mile (ea way) hike into the beautiful Kalalau Valley on my home island of Kauai.

I made the full hike with some buddies ages ago, zero prep, all the wrong equipment, in one day, out the next morning (7-8 hours each way!).

Really good breakdown of the design process in general and in-particular with cartography.

I’m a couple months out from having to register another home built boat myself. Just assuming it will be at least 2 DMV visits.

Figure 19, a series of 113 rectangles plotted on top of an OpenStreetMap basemap, showing the coverage of historical maps of Jerusalem.

Fantastic article on Georeferencing historical maps using automated processes, including local feature matching and Delaunay consistency from Beatrice Vaienti, Isabella di Lenardo and Frédéric Kaplan doi.org/10.1080/1523... #GISchat #OpenAccess

Maps don’t actually lie, they do exactly as they are designed to do. Most people just don’t understand maps, or Geography for that matter! 🙃

#gischat having one of those "ArcGIS ≠ ArcGIS Online" days. 😐

Love the gradient arrows. Under appreciated symbology IMO. Nice work!
