Hi all, big #maptime news! We've moved to a new domain name (maptime.fun) and we published our first blog post in 8 years! https://maptime.fun/blog/2026/03/06/goodbye-maptime.io-hello-maptime.fun/

Until next time, happy mapping! 🌈🌈🌈

Hello friends!

No, Maptime HQ is not "back", we are still on indefinite hiatus.

But! There are still many decentralized #maptime chapters that are active around the world, so we wanted to create a centralized MaptimeHQ account to *occasionally* repost that mappy goodness.

We miss you all! ❤️🌈

Add works on paper to the list of subjects I'll cover in my talk at @MaptimeAMS (#Maptime #Amsterdam) tonight: maps in performance, video, public art, & now screenprinting, which is why I'm here at AGA LAB.

Talk's at the TomTom offices. Three other speakers on the program, refreshments will be served. https://www.meetup.com/maptime-ams/events/301851869/ #ASynesthetesAtlas #IfMaps #AGALAB

I'll speak about using maps in performance, video, & public art this Thurs, 19 Sep, @MaptimeAMS (#Maptime #Amsterdam) hosted by TomTom at their offices. Two other speakers on the program, quite different topics, should be good! boost if so moved, thanks. https://www.meetup.com/maptime-ams/events/301851869/ #ASynesthetesAtlas #IfMaps

So was asked to do a 10-min talk at the next Maptime Amsterdam Meetup: https://www.meetup.com/maptime-ams/events/301851869

Quickly thought of something light&easy (not!):
"Melting Dutch open data and OpenStreetMap into a single schema".
10 mins, can-do. Why punish myself and audience? Title and abstract in image.

Thanks to everyone who came out tonight and made our Sprint #maptime Oakland/SF another success! If you have any interest in presenting for our summer event, please reach out to me!

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

It turns out the happy path for free mappy goodness is geofabrik -> planetiler -> pmtiles

I used the docker image of planetiler (new Java won't build on my Mac) and downloaded the required files separately based on the container command

https://download.geofabrik.de/
https://github.com/onthegomap/planetiler

I used pmtiles to convert from .mbtiles to .pmtiles

https://github.com/protomaps/go-pmtiles/releases

Then made the video from a screen cap with viewing tiles in protomap's viewer

The more I read about it, especially Arita Baaijens project https://www.paradijsindepolder.nl/ the more enthousiastic I get. Happy to have registered in time because there's a waiting list now.
