  1. Day 23: Memory
    Fond memories of a month-long Interrail trip with friends🚂. Fun way to explore Europe! Recreating our route from memory was tricky! Map made with with selected railways from Natural Earth data & backdrop via .

  2. Day 7: Vintage

    I explored beautiful historic maps of using the TopoTijdReis plugin in . Sampled colours from a 1948 map and adjusted the from with the samples using Symbol layer types Raster Image Fill and Raster Line. :openstreetmaps: :qgis:

  3. openfreemap.org is providing OSM vector tiles for free, which is pretty nice.

    But for Germany we also have official cadastral data as free vector tiles + 5m terrain data and LOD2 buildings by basemap.de.
    This is a great project where federal authorities actually work together and use an open source software stack.
    And rumors are that they will extend styles (topographic) and data (worldwide osm, national orthophotos) in the coming months.
