Day 49. Polygon city tiles 🏙️

This project visualizes the Timișoara historical center as a dense field of building polygons, using D3.js with Nextzen context tiles and detailed footprints from OSM Buildings.

Instead of simplifying the scene, it keeps full building coverage visible. As tiles stream in, streets/water/terrain establish context first, then buildings appear layer by layer.

Day 47. Atmosphere ✈️

An evolution of Day 43: same airport dataset, new atmospheric context.

Cloud layers, rim glow, and stronger light contrast shift perception, making dense regions stand out while sparse areas recede.

Built with Three.js + WebGL and subtle GLSL shaders.
Not a new dataset, just a new way of seeing it.

“geo” beyond INSPIRE: The INSPIRE Directive for geodata interoperability and sharing is set to be simplified. And that might actually be a good thing! Javier de la Torre takes a good look at INSPIRE’s history, shortcomings, and the argument for embracing #analytics-native paradigms for the future of geospatial.

“geo” beyond INSPIRE – Spatialists – geospatial news

Spatialists – geospatial news

For the upcoming London "Geo" Meetup #2, we’re kicking off with our first speaker:

Andrei Nita, CTO, building AI and data platforms that scale.

Most #Geospatial data stacks stop at dashboards.

This talk goes further, turning complex spatial + #AI data into systems you can actually explore, query, and act on in real time.

📅 Wed 8th April, 6PM
🎟 RSVP: lgm.jsonsingh.com

Wir spielen mit offenen Karten - Der FOSSGIS e.V. FOSSGIS-Konferenz 2026

Der Vortrag gibt einen Blick "hinter die Kulissen" für alle, die schon immer mal wissen wollten, wie die Vereinsarbeit gemacht wird. Und für diejenigen, die mitmachen wollen, aber noch nicht so richtig wissen wie und wo.
