  1. I found my #SolarEclipse spot on eclipsemap.xyz/ made by my astronomer friend using #OpenFreeMap, #OpenMapTiles and #OpenStreetMap data,

    I will be in #Slovenia that day, sorrounded by mountains, yet I found a nice spot with a ~90% coverage.

    On the 12th of August we will visit that area during the day, and on the way back to our base we will stop here to enjoy this #eclipse.

    Curious? Go on the website and check where you can see the eclipse 🌞

  2. Dear Lovely Peeps - especially you lot who love to go wandering around old places dreaming of #history - here's a handy-dandy guide to your next day out:

    'A free interactive map of the world's great #castles, #fortresses, and #palaces — 3,709 landmarks across 131 countries, each with its photo, founding century and story.

    How it is made - Everything on this #map comes from open data: facts, coordinates & founding dates from Wikidata, photographs from Wikimedia Commons, stories from Wikipedia, and the basemap from OpenFreeMap and Natural Earth.

    The atlas is curated, not exhaustive: the 3,709 most significant landmarks worldwide, ordered by a fame ranking that blends Wikipedia coverage with real readership.'

  3. Wow I finally unlocked a ton of knowledge about displaying, styling, manipulating, and embedding maps today thanks to @bart!

    I am going to use @maplibre GL JS everywhere from now on.

    It’s so simple and fun that in a handful of minutes I managed to add a minimap to pages related to a specific place in my website 👀 (see this commit and this page as reference).

    Thanks @internetarchiveeurope for having us 💕

  4. This is super cool, @boramalper! I was looking for a vector alternative to @equipe_umap… Just out of curiosity, what is the difference between #OpenFreeMap and @protomaps?=

  5. @Edent did not know OpenFreeMaps was a thing!

    Are you using the public free instance or hosting yourself?

  6. @owiecc But selfhosting was not technically easy (until now).

    Therefore you had to use Google Maps (has free tier, but only with limits - then you need to pay) or other commercial services like Mapbox, etc. 💸

    And all that if you just want to show the location of an ice cream stand for a small customer page ;)

    Therefore - the goal of #openfreemap is also to show how selfhosting can be done in an easy way github.com/hyperknot/openfreem

    That's why I'm interested in this project 2/

  7. „First month of #OpenFreeMap“:

    „Sony Music launched a project using OpenFreeMap; almost all the traffic comes from this single website.“

  8. Oh, that's interesting! 👏

    „For a long time,when you wanted to use the map on your website or app, you had to look for a commercial map tile provider and hope your site didn’t become too popular.Otherwise,you might end up with a $10,000 bill“

    „There is no tile server running; only nginx serving a Btrfs image with 300 million hard-linked files.This was my idea; I haven’t read about anyone else doing this in production,but it works really well.“
