Important: an amendment to Congress's budget bill proposes the sell-off lots of public land. At onX we created an interactive map showing the at-risk land.

Write to Congress today in support of public lands -they are an irreplaceable public resource.

I spent the 2nd half of 2022 working on these map styles and they finally launched! #cartography #basemaps

[Stamen Design (@[email protected]) @stamen]

New work: #AmazonLocationServices has launched four new map styles as part of their Open Data Maps service. Collaborating w/ AWS to make these maps has been a pairing of some of our favorite things: working w/ #OpenStreetMap & delivering custom map styles! https://t.co/XlXJoz5ePx

If you're wondering what I do at work, this interview with Stephanie May is a great intro to the current state of technical #cartography. The 5 stages of data grief are real! 🤣
