In #foss4ge2025 I was talking about Mercator projection, and what is the difference with "Web-Mercator"

These images (at different zoom levels) show a loxodromic curve (at 45° N) in Web-Mercator (EPSG:3857) - that is a straight line in Mercator (EPSG:3395). In red the loxodromic or rhumline. In blue a straight line connecting the endpoints.

(To reproduce it in #QGIS, deselect "Clip features to canvas extent" for the affected layers as discussed in https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/issues/62654)

Discover PostGIS Functions with ST_Letters

#PostGIS is full of superpower. Get to know the ST_Letters function that allows you to visualize the results of PostGIS functions with letters. You will like it!

It was fun preparing & presenting this feature at #FOSS4GE2025.

I presented #Mapbender at the #FOSS4GE2025 conference in Mostar & demonstrated how you can create great geoportal applications with Mapbender & talked about the news.

I also introduced #QGIS2Mapbender - a #QGIS plugin that publishes your QGIS Project as QGIS Server WMS & also in a Mapbender application.

YAY! I managed to finish my #FOSS4GE2025 community sprint objectives in time, and a drafted call-for-venue for #FOSS4GE2026 is there. Let's discuss it further on the mailinglist, your thoughts and opinions and feedback is appreciated.

In today's #gleo news: wind data!

Or, more technically: a 2-band raster covering the globe and properly warped (EPSG:4326→EPSG:3857) containing UV speed data, visualised as a particle trail simulation.

Thanks to the #FOSS4GE2025 for providing the environment that has let me pull this off.
