Hello global #maptime community! Maptime HQ has been in hibernation for a while, but it's time to renew the maptime.io domain name, and they're asking for donations to keep it registered. Can you chip in to help them meet their goal? ko-fi.com/maptime/goal?g=0 Thanks! 🌈❤️

not what i was aiming for, but satisfying nevertheless

would anyone like to venture a guess as to what they're looking at?

#gischat

a black canvas with a network of squiggly red lines drawn over it. the red lines have a glowing effect like neon lights. the glowing effect is more intense for some parts of some of the lines. there is a central nucleus of glowyness within the network. there is also a bunch of straight red lines that are less prominent that shouldn't be there. oops.

@nibsalot Can you trim down the data at all? Or many generalise the small polygons? Or even convert small polygons to points, if this doesn't impact the relationship you are looking at? #GISChat

In today's news:

The next logical step after `edgescreenify` is the `OffScreenIndicator` symbol. It renders *only* when its geometry is off the viewport, as a triangle pointing towards it.
