Just Mapping

Bodger at 12:57 pm May 29, 2020

Irish skies remain almost devoid of aircraft due to the ongoing impact of #COVID19 on aviation. Fine day for a mapping flight over Leitrim, Cavan & Fermanagh though. #AvGeek pic.twitter.com/GgIFpcF51U

This morning.

Well, that’s cleared that up then.

Airborne cartography.

Rigorous airborne cartography.

Meanwhile…

Extremely unlikely someone would fly from Liverpool and then go back & forth like that just to clock up flying hours.

You may have noticed a lack of maps, that’s because I am now gainfully employed! So no staying up to till all hours mapping kebabs and the like.
I covered a topic on my blog about students in Dublin 2004-2014 before and followed up by creating a map and a few charts and graphs that some may find interesting. I’ll let the map (above) speak for itself and you can explore more on the topic via my blog post here.
If anyone is curious I am working with global spatial geo-datasets and logistics software in London, for a small firm called Map Mechanics. It’s pretty cool to work in a country where real business gets done and ….. (I better stop there before I offend :P ). I’ll hopefully create more maps over the next few weeks…

Fresh from the success of his property tax map.

Another mapping creation, This is Irish rivers and streams coloured by their bearings. Created using @cartoDB/@qgis and EU Environment data. Explore it properly here: If you think a bearing is wrong it’s a data error :(

Since last year, ATAP google has been developing a new kind of mobile phone that tracks its own motion in three dimensions, using an internal sensor array to make over a quarter of a million position, depth and orientation measurements a second, building a three dimensional map of the space around the user.
