"the medium of data visualization is the decision" (of how to map from variable to visual) @jerthorp.bsky.social
Oblique map of flooding in Whitesburg, Kentucky. A winding blue river is surrounded by green hills with a rough texture.
Kicking off #NACIS2025 with @cchurchili.bsky.social & “Advanced Terrain Modeling with Blender”. If you’re unfamiliar his work, it’s amazing: churchillgeo.com
"Go toward realism to make sure you can do it, but then back away to create clarity." - Blender wizard @cchurchili.bsky.social
*Sigh*. My intended python demo for NACIS is gonna get tripped up by a version of Python released last Tuesday (3.14), which is not currently compatible with numpy. (I would prefer not having to spend time explaining how to downgrade a fresh Python install.)
😢
the issue with bluesky is that it took me 2 months to find this amazing trick by @southarrowmaps.co.nz and it has seemingly no engagement
This animation shows the difference between rotating the orthographic camera (first half) which produces foreshortening, and adjusting the Y-value of the input normal to the displacement node (second half).
Definitely bit off a lot on this latest upcoming blog post...
An #infographic of an Indigenous calendar cycle from #Colombia, I found today
"The French are pretty much still holding out"
describes many things tbf
This is also why, for a while, the French held out with their own alternative standards (as the article states)
So is colonialism to blame when QGIS craps itself? No....but also yes, in a extremely indirect but not entirely seperated way. History connects things like that
my go-to example of how colonialism / history can effect mundane tech problems. This convention of 180W/180E is directly linked to the cultural power of the British empire and its enforcing of scientific standards.

The mapping soundtrack atm
Equal earth map reprojected from a GeoTIFF source file with areas off the map correctly filled with white (no data). (Original GeoTIFF is transparent.)
Equal earth true color map reprojected from a VRT source file with areas off the map incorrectly filled with data from the other side of the international dateline.
I have a weird GDAL problem. I am trying to assign a spatial reference system to a JPEG world map and then reproject. Everything works if I use gdal_translate to make a GeoTIFF, but if I create a VRT as an intermediate step the corners of the reprojected image are filled. What gives?
Ive learned to expect consistently amazing (and harrowing) reporting from @shannonosaka.bsky.social
The accent on an 'i' will be the death of me
im just so jazzed about blender + satellite mosaics

To one and all a happy anniversary of the beginning of the world in the Maya long count calendar (give or take a day or 2).
