#30DayMapChallenge Day 18 — Out of this World One of the amazing things nowadays is open access to data, in this case from Mars thx to the @NASA MOLA mission (Mars Orbiter Laser Altimeter). Places I've read about in many SF books I can now visit and visualize in 3D.

Day 17 #30DayMapChallenge New Tool #KorayRender RStudio 3D Map Simulator by @kryaclan korayaclan.github.io/korayrender/ Great tool that helps you make 3D images of cities. Here parts of downtown Frankfurt where I used to go a lot as a teenager

#30dayMapChallenge day 16: Cell Mexico 2020 wheat production area by UBER H3 level 5 cells Data @INEGI and @IFPRI SPAM

Day 15 of the #30DayMapChallenge Fire. Burning of crop residues creates emissions. The map shows about 60k agricultural fires detected in 2024 by the NASA FIRMS program. Conservation agriculture as promoted by @cimmyt.bsky.social and FIRA use these crop residues to increase soil health and yields.

#30DayMapChallenge Day 13 - 10 minute map Deforestation in Mexico 2001 to 2024 Data from Hansen et al, 2013, University of Maryland GLAD, Global Forrest Watch (GFW) and NASA

In the year 2525, if man is still alive If woman can survive, they may find: #30DayMapChallenge — Day 12: Map of 2125

#30DayMapChallenge Day 11: Minimal Sounds easy but it isn't.

#30DayMapChallenge Day 10: Air The obvious one is air quality, annual PM2.5 particles from Wei et al., 2023 in Nature Communications. Interesting to see natural and human hot spots.

#30DayMapChallenge Day 9 - Analog Time to cheat as I don't draw well enough to do analog National Institute of Statistics and Geography of Mexico (INEGI) topo map and 15 m elevation model off the place I work at @cimmyt.bsky.social

#30DayMapchallenge Day 8, Urban. Data from European Commission (JRC), Center for Integrated Earth System Information (CIESIN) and NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration, rendered with #aerialod Urban areas in Mexico

#30DayMapChallenge Day 7 — Accessibility Distance to different sized towns

Day 6 of #30DayMapChallenge: Dimensions Some countries pop up (USA, China, Brazil), some stay almost the same (Mexico, Turkey) some disappear (Australia UK). 2023 maize production as a cartogram. Thx to @fao.org stat and Gastner et al. Proc Natl Acad Sci (2018) online tool.

#30DayMapChallenge – Day 5: Earth Given the importance of these, global occurrence of rare earth elements according to U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) and the great hashtag#rayrender package in R.

#30DayMapChallenge Day4: My Data/Our Data Use of cost distance grids to review and plan for improved accessibility of farmers in Central Mexico to conservation agriculture machinery for climate change adaptation and more regenerative farming practices within @cimmyt.bsky.social MasAgro initiative.

#30DayMapChallenge Day 3 - Polygons While Mexico is still recovering from several years of drought, here is how 2024 looked like. Great drought data from @conagua_mx and inspiration from ESRI's @John_M_Nelson

#30DayMapChallenge Day 2: Lines OSM and hanshack.com/figureground...

Every year @cimmyt.bsky.social wheat breeders send out the new nurseries with high yield potential and resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses for testing to many collaborators in the world both in the public and private sector. Rendered in R with #rayrender by @tylermw.com .

A study in Nature Food assesses the future climatic suitability of global croplands for 30 major food crop types, quantifying the changes in potential food crop diversity given climate conditions across four global warming levels. https://go.nature.com/3Dp5LEk #foodstudies 🧪

#30DayMapChallenge, Day 30, The Final Map. The Final map takes me to the beginning. The place I was born at: Hospital Amazonico in Yarina-Cocha, Peru from Sentinel 2 as Normalized Difference Water Index (NDWI) image. Copernicus Browser and Overture

#30DayMapChallenge Day 29 Data: Overture Pity there are no building heights for the town of Campeche but at least easy access to this huge data set in Qgis thx to @gishub.org www.youtube.com/watch?v=6lfV...

#30DayMapChallenge - Day 28: The Blue Planet

#30DayMapChallenge · Day 27 · Micromapping As I just found out we can do 3D mapping stuff without having to buy an expensive phone with LIDAR I decided to try the app Luma. Impressive yet need to practice a bit more with making the video for the data.

#30DayMapChallenge · Day 25 · Heat Crop residue burning in Guanajuato state, Mexico. Time to switch to conservation agriculture systems for climate smarter agriculture, carbon sequestration and less emissions Was supposed to be a gif animation but X didn't like the format.
