Color Memory Game — How well do you remember colors? We show you colors. You recreate them from memory. Challenge friends to beat your score. It's harder than you think.

Turns out I’m bad at remembering colors. 46.4/50. Worse than you? dialed.gg

Many an hour I have spent wandering around on this map!

Exploring the #eurostat population #map by sex, you can find a district in Greece with 100% of men population. Welcome to Mount Athos ! See: link.europa.eu/nJFhD8

Nobody is beating that!!

I actually said at work today 'tell them to use Robinson projection for the world map, unless they are using it for maritime navigation (in which case I wish them all the best on their travels)'

The Geography of the Labour Force Composition in the Netherlands by Ate Poorthuis (doi.org/10.1111/tesg...). One of the best uses of the centered ternary balance scheme (www.demographic-research.org/articles/vol...) I've seen so far. Build with tricolore github.com/jschoeley/tr... @ikashnitsky.phd

I've updated Geoblender so that the country DEM prep is automated using python! Simply add the DEM tiles and set COUNTRY_CODE to your desired country.

I also added the option to download and drape a Sentinel satellite image over it!

You win a cookie!! 🍪

Nope!

Guess where?

Built a palette extractor that thinks like a curator, not a pixel counter.

– Physics-based color repulsion
– Auto-detects muted vs vibrant bias
– Adaptive spacing to hit target count
– OKLCh color space (perceptually uniform)

It was nice and straightforward! Just had to change a few lines to be windows-friendly (by removing '.py' in gdal commands) for example.

First attempts at visualizing El Tranco, a place where I have spent many summers, using CartoHD (by @jgaffuri.bsky.social

Two part graphic showing the daily contribution of solar in Great Britain’s electricity. The top half is a single tile chart arranged in 30-minute blocks from midnight on left to 23:59 on right with each row representing one day and ordered top-to-bottom from 1 January to 31 December 2025. Blocks are shaded by strength of generation share. In 2025, more than a dozen blocks are dark orange to show share above 40 percent. Contribution in summer days is longer and generally stronger than in winter. The second part of the graphic repeats the format as a small multiple with one fart for each year from 2013 to 2024. Each year increases in strength over that period but 2025 is the greatest contributor overall.

New record year for renewable electricity in Britain - thanks especially to strong solar output.

these are excellent

📣 NEW WORK! Excited to share my latest work with the Publications Office of the European Union 🇪🇺

I got to create 9 dataviz for 3 of the EU's monthly Data Stories, covering fascinating topics, from leisure, health and the future.

Just stumbled across this wonderful FREE book on "Engineers of Map Art" documenting over a decade of cartography at ETH Zurich.
A quick scroll shows amazing maps 😍
