Day 18/100: OpenStreetMap nodes as interactive bubbles 🫧

Visualized #OSM point data as bubbles: parks, amenities, buildings, landmarks. Size reflects importance/area, color shows category.

Interaction key: click reveals metadata (tags, names, hours, accessibility), pan/zoom explores regions.

#OpenStreetMap isn't just geometry. Each node carries community knowledge. This visualization surfaces that richness. 🌍

“A geographic information system (GIS) can create, manage, analyze, and map many types of data. With GIS and other mapping technologies, you can create a map of an area and layer open data over it spatially to reveal new, enriching insights. Your challenge is to create a map that incorporates open science data to explore how an issue in your community is shaped by the surrounding physical geography...”
