Great logo! I've drawn a couple of the past logos and it's a tough process. Hats off to the artist. Excited to see all the branding this June in Madison

Pinhead v5 is now released with 38 icons added since v3, including icons from the OSM Americana map style. I also added a page where you can compare Pinhead to the likes of Maki, NPS, and OSM Carto

First known instance of Pinhead in use by the community 😊

Released today in Pinhead v3: fifteen new public domain map icons including trucks, wifi devices, and a maple leaf

Here are some of the more interesting icons I drew that are "exclusive" to Pinhead, including reimagined icons for OSM curb types

Here’s a little something I put together this week: Pinhead Map Icons. I was tired of digging through a bunch of different sources to find good cartographic icons, so I compiled all the public domain sources I could find into one unified set. You’ll see familiar faces from the likes of iD, OSM Carto, and National Park Service maps, plus some newcomers. Let me know what you think!

Quality public domain icons for your map pins

Now posted: my talk from @sotmeu back in November. I had a blast talking about the differences between American and European OpenStreetMap. I believe I was the only person from the US to fly in specifically for this conference. Great event!

Compare OSM with the same area in Google Maps and Apple Maps. Pillar Falls isn't even searchable in the latter
Recently had some fun micromapping Pillar Falls in Idaho's Snake River Canyon. Featuring dramatic basalt pillars, this falls runs over exposed bedrock much of the year (intermittent=yes in OpenStreetMap terms). This makes for a popular local hangout spot and an interesting place to map
