  1. #Projections for #30DayMapChallenege

    An animation of 24 hours (from midnight at UTC+00:00) on Earth today, in four different projections: Left to right, top to bottom: #Orthographic, #Stereographic, Interrupted Goode Homolosine and #Spilhaus.

    Plotted with #cartopy 's Nightshade function (repeated calls to get the different twilight zones) and #matplotlib at 15 minute time steps and then stacked together in #gimp

    Background image is cartopy's `stock_img()`.

    re-used some code I threw together recently to make a thing for changing my desktop background: tlohde.com/blog/2025/10/becaus

  6. A 2017 cycle tour for today's #30DayMapChallenge : My Data.

    A work in progress (this has been in my drafts for a while*)

    Note to self: go ride your bike and sleep in questionable places more often - it's fun.

    Throwing the kitchen sink at this one: #python #geopandas #matplotlib #cartopy with some #qgis and #inkscape for good measure.

    *read: I've been avoiding labelling because I'm bad at it.

  7. day 24: #only_circular_shapes

    Encircled Iceland Incircles.

    The biggest circle that fits inside of Iceland (an "incircle") (in UTM), and the next biggest that doesn't overlap the first, and the next biggest and so on...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incircle

    method implemented similar to that of Garcia-Castellanos & Lombardo 2008 doi.org/10.1080/14702540801897

    colors are that of the Icelandic flag

  17. I know #matplotlib can do cartography (maps), and #osmnx uses it to plot stuff, but I can't find documentation or a decent tutorial to plot a base map and a list of latlong places as different sized circles. I'm struggling with #cartopy, in theory a wrapper to make mapping easier :((
    Is it that hard or I'm just too dumb and/or I'm making everything wrong? #Python

  22. Fyi, @ruthpozuelo (and others)

    The #python #matplotlib #basemap module is now fully back on track, and the deprecation warning on their documentation page was removed. Congrats to the maintainer.

    matplotlib.org/basemap/stable/

    Python has now once again two major map-plotting libraries: #basemap and #cartopy.

  27. @EL_Uatu @ruthpozuelo if you know the lat/lon of each of you crime "cell", and the projection information to go from x/y to lat/lon you can use #pyresample (from the #pytroll ecosystem).

    That's what I use for plotting satelitte and weather data. But #cartopy or #basemap can probably do the transform for you if the ony thing you want is plotting.

  32. #ICYMI

    Last night, @ruthpozuelo and I found out that #Basemap (the legacy map plotting module of #python) was not dead after all, and that a small team of developers are taking care of it.

    This can be of interest for those of you that have not fully transitioned to #Cartopy yet (I have).
