I found this lovely map "The World on a Quincuncial Projection", from Peirce (1879)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peirce_quincuncial_projection
You can cut one square, bend the triangles/corners along the equator, and you have a two sided continuous map of the world. (also square)
This ArcGIS Online June Update gets a big “FINALLY” from me: “While creating or editing a map that you own, you can now share a link to a map at its current extent that will open in Map Viewer” #ESRI #ArcGISOnline #AGOL #GISChat

Helping out a local city.
City: "Our permits system vendor needs the data a certain way so that a permit point can grab related data from other layers."
Me: "Makes sense, whatever we have to do."
Vendor: "I need these specific layers in the same published service URL, they can't be separate."
Me: "I don't think that's true, but whatever, we can do that. Here you go."
Vendor: "Did we say that? We meant the important information has to be in a single points layer with lots of columns."
I need two kinds of tools. First, to make a rendering of roads and crudely drawn buildings around. That's for demonstrating how to rebuild a street to add cycle lanes and wider sidewalks. And trees. Nothing too flashy, but should be understandable and fly-able over in a video. Like the first picture.
Second, I have a photo, and want to add greenery, cycle lanes, walkways, remove cars maybe, though not important. Create before-and-after shots, like the second picture. #gischat
Earlier this month, #TomPatterson released a free (public domain) print-quality physical map of maritime Southeast Asia. It could actually almost double as a map of SEA except the northern part of Myanmar is cut off.

A couple comments about the #Philippines portion: Mayon should’ve been included in the peaks and the choice of spelling is unusual (e.g., “Pulog” instead of “Pulag”). But the map is excellent otherwise.

hey #gischat does anyone know how to turn off the REMARKABLY irritating tooltip-on-hover thing when georeferencing points in Arc Pro?
Are web maps a recession byproduct?: What fueled the growth of the geospatial industry in the 2010s? An article on placing.technology explores the history and political economy of geospatial tech.

I'm searching for a dataset that provides information on all greenhouses across Europe. Ideally, this dataset would include a couple of relevant attributes such as: the location, crop type, ownership, ...
Does anyone know of such a dataset, preferably open-access? Any leads or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Done mapping all 10 #barangays of Hadji Muhtamad, Basilan, #Philippines in #OpenStreetMap, creating their #Wikidata items, and linking the two with each other.
