McMurdo Station, Antarctica, today. Learn more about the camera and the station at usap.gov/videoclipsandmaps/mcm and the United States Antarctic Program station time zones usap.gov/stationtimes.cfm and #southpole #polar #antarctic #PolarResearch #landscapephotography #art #photography #seasons #nsf #usap Image credit National Science Foundation/U.S. Antarctic Program.

McMurdo Station, Antarctica, as seen in this NSF/United States Antarctic Program web camera image, is presently dark. Lights illuminate buildings and cast interesting shadows. McMurdo Station is approximately 800 miles north of the South Pole. (Then again, virtually everything is north of the South Pole, as many authors have noted!)

OpenStreetMap could be the perfect tool to do this, but unfortunately, in my experience, most street parking has not been tagged.

You can help: it's like a game, just look at satellite photos and draw a box around the street parking spaces.

I found out it is harder to publish an app to the Play Store than is is to publish an app to the App Store. To publish to the Play Store you need 12 testers. Does Google know how hard it is to make friends?

If you are on #Android want to try out a super simple #map app with a gorgeous map of the Netherlands (map5topo.nl), DM me your e-mail and I will add you as a tester.

Welcome. There us no algorithm putting your posts into eyes.

Engagement on Mastodon is by hashtags. Make new hashtags, find well.used ones.

After typing a # Mastodon will the you the number of users for the hashtag.

For example if you type - #usp - Mastodon will say 1.9k under highlight meaning almost two thousand recent posts with rhe US politics hashtag "#uspoli"

I found having free downloaded Organic Maps on my phone very useful for navigating through towns. But, for planing & traveling the open road, paper maps are a must have. Paper maps provide perspective on a large scale but also fine detail. Paper maps include geographic places names, jurisdictional boundaries, places of interest, infrequently traveled roads all of which are lacking on digital maps, even if you zoom way in. So get the big picture, get paper maps!

A color landscape photo of five stacks of folded paper maps sitting on a table. The five stacks are different sizes. Stacks one and two are the same height on the left. The map on top of stack one says, "St. Louis," and on stack two says, "Northern California." Stack three is the tallest with forty or more maps. The top map says, "Southern Nevada and Death Valley Area." Stack four to the right of three is the shortest and it says, "Bridger Teton National Forest." Stack five, on the far right says, "Indian Country," on the top map.
