A minimal map for Day 11 of the #30DayMapChallenge with Cadence. Here's a map with one word & varying line colour and thickness. Simple, stylistic, but still insightful. Making maps is easy with Cadence - start your free professional account today: cadence.cityscience.com/blog/30-day-...

⏰ The webinar is tomorrow! The Islamic State’s pivot to Africa is reshaping conflict dynamics from Somalia and the Sahel to the Lake Chad Basin, the Great Lakes region, & Mozambique. Join ACLED live to discuss state responses & regional security. 🔗 Register: us02web.zoom.us/webinar/regi...

And that's enough maps for today

Day 9 #30DayMapChallenge - Analog(ue) I could've drawn the map but this was quicker to help me catch up but much less fun. I used {roughsf} to draw and colour in the continents. schochastics.github.io/roughsf/ #rstats #dataviz

Day 8 #30DayMapChallenge - Urban Density I followed a guide to plot the density of buildings in Worthing but I quite liked it with the buildings so stopped there. Will share the link to the guide if you want to have a go. #rstats #dataviz

Day 7 #30DayMapChallenge - I want to ride my bicycle... Surprisingly, there's not a cycle path that connects Worthing to Brighton, mostly because of the bit occupied by Shoreham in the middle. Maybe one day it'll happen but in the meantime you'll have to join the A259. #rstats #dataviz

Day 6 #30DayMapChallenge - Mount Kailash Not sure what to do with 'dimensions' but since everyone did a 3D map, I put together this 3D view of Mount Kailash in #QGIS and then added it into a ggplot as a background image. #rstats #dataviz

🚇 Paris en toute autonomie : accessibilité du métro 🌍 #30DayMapChallenge – Jour 7 : Accessibilité Pour ce septième jour, cap sur Paris et son réseau de métro. Données : Île-de-France Mobilités, RATP, Open Data Paris, BD Topo® (IGN) #ArcGIS

Ugh, feel underprepared for this but trusting in the training I’ve done so far.

Doing some math with the White House.

I successfully nerd-sniped myself into making a precinct-level dot-density map of the NYC mayoral election. kieranhealy.org/blog/archive...

My favorite maps are the ones that take like 3 applications to finish. Kidding. Here's my Day 6 ("dimensions") of #30DayMapChallenge: a joy or ridgeline plot of kids in the US in 2020. Thanks @ipums.bsky.social (NHGIS), QGIS, R, Adobe Illustrator, and especially @helenmakesmaps.bsky.social

#30daymapchallenge | Day 6 Dimensions | Unrealized Heights Still tinkering with this one, but here’s unbuilt volume for large buildings within 1 mile of the Capitol, where the Capitol View Preservation Ordinance restricts buildings from exceeding the elevation of the base of the Capitol’s columns.

Bonfire night always draws a good crowd in Worthing

Long and healthy life after 65? It depends on your country. #datavis

Day 5 #30DayMapChallenge - Remember, remember, the fifth of November... Bonfire night here in the UK but there are some other public holidays going on earth (see what I did there?) today. #rstats #dataviz

30DayMapChallenge - Day 5: earth Protected areas vs oil & gas extraction using Latam datasets and oil concessions in 5 Latam countries (Colombia, Brazil, Peru, Ecuador and Argentina). Data: Global Energy Monitor, Global Forest Watch, World Database on Protected Areas #dataviz #map

Building upon the earlier land/water hemisphere maps, this exercise further refines the design by incorporating perspectives of the Eastern and Western Hemispheres, the polar regions, and layered contourline coloring. The result is a relatively comprehensive map. #QGIS #Inkscape #Hemisphere #Map

Day 03 of #30DayMapChallenge with a density choropleth and quantiles! 👏 Thanks to @Benjamin Novak's tutorial in @yan-holtz.bsky.social gallery r-graph-gallery.com/web-map-chor... 🌚 Used data from the Observatoire Statistique Tranfrontalier #rstats #dataviz #map #ggplot2 #gis

Night trains are really having a moment right now. Every year, a few more routes appear, offering travellers real alternatives to short-haul flights across Europe. Next time, swap the airport for the train station and wake up somewhere new. A data story by Sebastian Gräff.

We’re launching a bold plan to make high-speed rail the fastest, more sustainable way to travel across Europe by 2040. It’s a concrete timeline to remove bottlenecks, unlock investment, and harmonise rail systems ⬇️

#30daymapchallenge Day 4: Data: My Data. This summer I cycled from home in Brighton, UK to Rouen in France to watch the Tour de France. This was my route - mapped in Official Tour de France route map style.

#30daymapchallenge 🗺️ jour 4 : MyData. Quand je pense à certaines chansons, que je les entends, instantanément, je visualise un endroit. Souvent là où je les ai entendues. Encore un soir, par Céline Dion, est indissociable pour moi de la RN7 à Roanne. Et vous ?

Day 4 #30DayMapChallenge - Flaggin' Flags Here's all the places I've seen the Union Jack whilst out on a run in Worthing. I spend a fair time running east and west of central Worthing, so it makes sense that I've recorded most observations there. #rstats #dataviz

Here in the UK October was a dull month and slightly warmer than average. It was drier than normal overall but wetter in Northern Ireland, Western Scotland and south-east England. Here is the weather/climate summary #daatviz for the last year. #climatchange #globalwarming

The #30DayMapChallenge is SUPER DUPER HARD. Making maps takes skill, patience and creativity. The whole point of this challenge is to get out of your comfort zone and do something fast, imperfect and NEW. Perfection has never been the goal. These maps are all uncut gems.

Day 3 #30DayMapChallenge - Postcode Polygons Used convex hulls to draw a polygon round UK postcodes that start with the letters in the word 'polygon'. #rstats #dataviz

#30DayMapChallenge 🗺️, jour 3 : Polygones. Les préfectures de France 🇫🇷, et leur représentation architecturale du pouvoir central "dans les territoires", fière et massive. Hôtel classique du XIXe siècle, folie typique des années 1960, geste expérimental du XXIe siècle... Que de formes variées !

Day 2 of the #30DayMapChallenge - Lines. This map shows the rivers of Africa, coloured according to the minimum river temperature.

#30DayMapChallenge - Day 2: lines Oil & gas pipeline infrastructures For the basemap, I chose to highlight the rivers to think about potential pollution risks. Data: Global Energy Monitor, Global Oil Infrastructure Tracker, March 2025 release public.flourish.studio/visualisatio... #dataviz #map 🗺️

Day 2 #30DayMapChallenge - Road Conditions in York If you're travelling through York beware the condition of the roads! #rstats #dataviz

The finish in the men’s race at the NYC marathon with Kipruto and Mutiso was just nuts. A reminder that it’s never over till it’s over.

Day 1 #30DayMapChallenge - Drone Warfare in Mali As Mali teeters on the brink, I use data from @acleddata.bsky.social to examine how drone attacks have become an increasingly prominent feature of the conflict there. More from @lemonde.fr: www.lemonde.fr/en/le-monde-... #rstats #dataviz

#30DayMapChallenge - Day 1: points Each point is a mining facility from ICMM's Global Mining Dataset. And I used Flourish 3D globe template 🌍 #dataviz #map public.flourish.studio/visualisatio...

Not at the game today but this was posted in the OSC chat by someone who is and I don’t think you could get a better view of Paik’s goal. #bcfc #KRO #footy-live #efl-live

This is a quite remarkable report going, quite literally, inside a coltan mine in eastern DRC.

#30DayMapChallenge Day 1: Points Worked on this experimental dot density map using UK population data by age and sex. The points are generated and coloured in real-time as you explore the map. onsdigital.github.io/dot-map-poc/ 1/3

🚨New report out today with Nic Newman, @mitalilive.bsky.social, and @richardfletcher.bsky.social mapping out the news creator and influencer space from the vantage point of audiences across 24 countries. It includes a typology of news creators, key trends, and lists of most mentioned individuals.👇

Halloween logicals, still the best 10/31 venn

Doesn’t feel like TC explained the ‘dislikes’ function well so sharing what @bsky.app posted about it earlier today. Sounds a lot like a more aggressive “show less like this” function that already exists.

i think this is the best description of Threads i've seen yet and of course it's by @katienotopoulos.bsky.social

Bekele vs Kipchoge at the NYC marathon this weekend will probably not be the contest it would’ve been in previous years but good to see a couple of old boys still going for it 🫢
