  4. Why does Kontur use hexagons?
    Because borders lie.

    Hex grids =
    ✅ Equal area
    ✅ Seamless coverage
    ✅ Fast queries
    ✅ No square bias
    ✅ Scalable from local to global

    One shared frame. One honest view.

  15. Day 8, Data: HDX
    Population distribution in the largest country of Africa, Algeria. : @WorldPopProject Population Counts 2020, Administrative Boundaries and cities from :osm: via data.humdata.org/. Made with :qgis:

  16. NOTE
    1. The flood hazard data has invalid geometries/features. You can resolve this by fixing the geometries (takes a long time) or simply disabling the Invalid features filtering in QGIS processing settings.
    2. Some areas have no flood hazard features. These are marked as NO DATA in the maps.

  17. ...
    3. Generate centroids from the output of #2 (either using the Centroids algorithm or Geometry generators).
    4. To speed up and automate the process, I created a model that runs steps 1-3 above.
    5. Style the output of 3 using: marker = hexagon, size = depends on population, color = depends on hazard level (Var). Utilize data-defined overrides/Assistant.

  18. PROCESS
    1. Use the "Sort" algorithm to create an ordered version of the flood hazard layer such that the features with high hazard level (3) will always be the first feature that will be matched in #2 below.
    2. Run a "Join attributes by Location" between the population hex grid layer and the sorted/ordered flood hazard layer (output of #1).
    ...

  19. 30 DAY MAP CHALLENGE 2024 | DAY 4 - HEXAGONS

    Population ⬡ Flood Hazard
    - larger hexagon = more people in the area
    - redder color = higher hazard level

    DATA
    > Population density for 400m H3 Hexagons [Kontur] - data.humdata.org/dataset/kontu
    > Flood hazard (100-year rain return) [UPRI/Project NOAH] - drive.google.com/drive/folders

  20. Population density of Sicily, Italy. You can easily identify Palermo, Catania and Mount Etna on this map.

  21. I forgot to mention that the TMS layer URI for the #OpenAerialMap (OAM) mosaic provided by #Kontur is

    apps.kontur.io/raster-tiler/oa

    You can add that TMS to your favorite #OpenStreetMap (OSM) editor.

    🎗️ All OAM imagery is allowed to be used with OSM -- but use with caution! There may be alignment issues, and Kontur will always put the latest available imagery on top.

    If you're after a specific imagery, best to so directly from OAM.

  22. Did you know that #Kontur now serves a mosaic layer of the latest #OpenAerialMap imagery ?

    Below are the latest captures made by the awesome #DatumPH team, collaborating with the local #OpenStreetMap community for identifying AOIs.

    Have fun with mapping details on OSM!
