Happy Monday! Can set aside a bit of time this weekend to advocate for what the most exciting and useful talks should be at FOSS4G SotM 2023. This year, we want the community who we serve to tell us what the program should look like. Will you step up to the challenge?

very cool, love how you have been playing with elevation data @MapHustle
Here's a draft of an idea I've been playing around with - putting emphasis on New Zealand's faulted landscape. For no other reason than, I just like how this looks. A simple map showing faults in Greater Wellington - NZ.

T -1 min Last weekend, I took advantage of the full moon and clear weather to go on an overnight traverse from Avalanche Peak to Mt Bealey in Arthur's Pass. For some reason, I've decided to give myself one (1) hour to create a 3D #map of the route, and live-tweet the process...

We’ve got more than six months of active Russian war against Ukraine & tens of thousands of innocent Ukrainians were killed by Russians. Yet some good American cartographers keep playing by rules written in Moscow. I’m speaking about Natural Earth, @kelsosCorner & @MtnMapper 👇

definitely a shame to miss these talks, Susan always gives great talks and Victoria's sounded very interesting
Another great #MapTimeWGTN event last night with talks from Susan Shaw (@LINZLDS) and Victoria Chanse (@WellingtonUni) Followed by pizza sponsored by @osgeo_oceania

I've recently completed the Routeburn! Here's the draft of a map I made but never used - LINZ Topo50 maps are just too good!

Made this transformers map of where we live for my sons birthday tomorrow, definitely a nice way to get re-energised for the new year. To get the hex roads I used Create Grid to make a hex grid, then used Snap to Geometries Layer using #QGIS
