Back to #mapstodon after a nice burnout, so time for a new #intro!

I’m a freelance software dev (mainly working for the french ministry of #ecology), but my 2nd (and favorite) hat is #cartography and #data analysis (mainly with https://democratiserlapolitique.org 🥰 right now).

My fav project I’ve worked on was “100 jours de zbeul”, a web leaderboard for the 2023 french manifestations that was really irritating to right wingers ✊.

Can’t wait to see you all again!

Démocratiser la politique

De retour, sur #mapstodon, en laissant un beau burnout derrière, donc nouvelle #intro !

Je suis développeur freelance (principalement pour @betagouv / le min. de l’écologie). Ma deuxième casquette, mais 1e de cœur, c’est la carto et l’analyse de données (en ce moment surtout https://democratiserlapolitique.org/ 🥰)

Mon projet préféré : 100 jours de zbeul, avec @SolInfoNat, @unionsolidaires et @Attac

Hâte de tous·tes vous retrouver !

Many thanks if you can help.

Details from the Qarhan Playa - China

The Qarhan Playa is a playa in the Golmud and Dulan counties of Haixi Prefecture, Qinghai, China. Formerly a single unitary lake, it is now an expansive salt flat divided into four greater sections which contain a number of smaller salt lakes, the largest of which is Dabusun Lake. The area is heavily exploited for its valuable salt, mineral, and rare earth reserves but parts are also protected as a national park and contribute to regional tourism.

Just rolled beta releases of Maps and libshumate (50.beta and 1.6.beta) for the upcoming GNOME 50 release, and also stable releases (49.4, 48.9, and 1.5.3, 1.4.1 respectively) before traveling to Brussels for FOSDEM tommorow evening.

One improvement in 50.beta consists of showing more text from the article extract from Wikipedia in “desktop mode” when there is more space.

Officially “made use of” the year 2026 yesterday, when updating the copyright year in the about dialog for Maps.

And also, btw added a source file with copyright year 2026 some week ago (a specialization of the Place class for handling “stop places” from Transitous/MOTIS, enabling to mark places from public transit itineraries as bookmarks/favorites.

I love it when countries only exist in some maps
I just think that's fun

This is a really good mini-tutorial on designing more impactful maps. Sadly, they use ArcGIS instead of #QGIS or another #FOSS4G solution, but the graphic design ideas are generally applicable.

It's migration time!

In order to complete the migration to our new infrastructure, Mastodon Space will be offline during 4 hours, starting Monday Jan. 19 at 1 PM UTC.

You can find out about local time correspondance by using a time zone converter like https://time.is.

Apologies for the inconvenience, and see you on the other side!
