@opmteam oops. We just learned it was merely a URL change. Martian geocoding can continue!

[Geocode Mars @geocodemars]

It has come to our attention that the amazing @opmteam tiles for Mars are no longer hosted on Carto.

Does anyone have a good source for good Martiain tiles? 🗺️🛸

[Geocode Mars @geocodemars]

https://t.co/6OtNDzhQ39 is not affected by the current adverse weather on Mars. All geocoding should continue to function normally.

[Geocode Mars @geocodemars]

https://t.co/6OtNDzhQ39 does not collect any PII, so we are happy to announce full compliance with the GDPR, even for Europeans vacationing on Mars

What a beautiful Planet https://t.co/9pCkl8fi0T

#Mars on April 28th. https://t.co/sBkuK08PLp Some moments of good seeing on the 28th. A nice view of Syrtis Major and Hellas. Very little cloud activity across the planet.

As @jatorre hops on stage to close out #cartolocations, it's a good time to point out that https://t.co/6OtNDzhQ39 would not be possible without the awesome @opmteam Martian tiles which are hosted by @CARTO

[Geocode Mars @geocodemars]

This is relevant to my interests https://t.co/9gmx8EWVlF

Did you catch Fernando Sanchez's #foss4gna talk on @MAVEN2Mars and @NASASun? He's demoing at the Cesium booth during the 3:20 afternoon break.

My flight from Mars just landed, see you all this week for #foss4gna

[Geocode Mars @geocodemars]

https://t.co/6OtNDzzqUH is hosted in the cloud. But Mars does not really have clouds.

Since the rust in Martian soil comes from iron, perhaps we should purchase a giant server from IBM to use

[Geocode Mars @geocodemars]

We have been informed by @burritojustice that we should have named ourselves Aerescode Mars.

This may be true, but we already bought the domain. Maybe next time

When Elon Musk sends Grimes to Mars, we promise to add her location to https://t.co/6OtNDzhQ39

Why is Earth so special? :P https://t.co/xvoGh7PcfE

TIL: "Geocoding is the process of transforming a description of a location—such as a pair of coordinates, an address, or a name of a place—to a location on the earth's surface." #NNIP https://t.co/yD7nnrRsK4 HT @D3detroit

¡EOSGIS Cartography Magazine está disponible! https://t.co/IhaheTL10D Gracias a @geocodemars @techcuratedfr @hipsthetic #map #fortification

[Geocode Mars @geocodemars]

Did you know the definition of the prime meridian on Mars recently changed? Big news for anyone geocoding on the red planet

https://t.co/iEHojyWdYG

[Geocode Mars @geocodemars]

Much of the data for https://t.co/6OtNDzzqUH comes from the Gazetteer of Planetary Nomenclature which is the REAL name of a REAL service run by the USGS and NASA. How cool is that?

[Geocode Mars @geocodemars]

feel free to use the @pelias_geocoder API at https://t.co/PENVmRcabF in your own Martian apps

There are no rate limits or anything, since the dataset is pretty small and easy to run.

[Geocode Mars @geocodemars]

In case you missed it, as of a month ago you can get all your Martian geocoding done at https://t.co/6OtNDzhQ39

[Geocode Mars @geocodemars]

And if you want to add more data, open a PR to https://t.co/xjHtjUzSiD

[Geocode Mars @geocodemars]

for now, only /v1/autocomplete works, but I bet we can fix that
