🏝️ Chaque île est unique.

Mais comment les représenter à l'échelle d'un globe ? C'est une question de taille... et de généralisation cartographique.

🔍 A l'échelle mondiale, représenter chaque crique devient impossible : les lignes côtières se simplifient, les détails s'effacent.

👀 Ces cartes révèlent la métamorphose de la géométrie selon l'échelle.

For the third #30MapsInAMonth are three theoretical European full-automated luxury high-speed heavy-rail network maps based on population distribution. This uses H3 hierarchical hexagon library to aggregate @WorldPopProject population data into #polygons, creating a maximum spanning tree network using population-to-population edge-weights and names for major urban centres added using @EUCommission Global Human Settlement Layer data.

I read a critique during the metaverse hype about how much work it is to even render a single bowl of popcorn. That games really limit where your player can stand because rendering everything from all angles is impossible, making the more open words of the metaverse effectively impossible.

Does anyone remember this? I would like to cite it or possibly quote it for a paper.
