🗺️ DAY 16: CHOROPLETH - What does the UK look like when coloured in by #PremierLeague @premierleague football club colours? That’s today’s #30DayMapChallenge! Obviously the polygon sizes aren’t proportionate to importance - LFC hidden away in their NW corner! ⚽️

🗺️ DAY 14: WORLD - How Worldly is the distribution of the history of world fairs? Not much it seems according to today’s #30DayMapChallenge. If you’re into planning, architecture, the world fair and serial killers couldn’t recommend “Devil in the White City” enough!

🗺️ DAY 13: NEW TOOL - Not exactly new, but relatively. ArcGIS Pro! I’m so used to QGIS and the former ArcMap, that Pro is still pretty new to me. Learning all along the way! #ESRI #ArcGIS #30DayMapChallenge Redoing some maps from my PhD tree canopy identification.

Started on the deep dive of Venus, Magellan, radar rasters, and translating earth coordinates into the Venusian CRS… time to start using QGIS for some more SPACE-ial analysis 😉

🗺️ DAY 6: RASTER - I think we could use a little break from earth for todays #30DayMapChallenge. I’ve been deep into planetary sci-fi books lately so today we have a raster of the surface of Venus from NASA’s Magellan mission 🪐🔭🚀

🗺️ DAY 4: HEXAGONS - I had a lot of fun working on this @CDRC_UK retail data product. Lots of retail points and hexagons involved. Here we have the retail centres around Rotherham - but we've got full UK coverage! Explore the data in #OpenAccess linked below #30DayMapChallenge

🗺️ DAY 3: POLYGONS - A simple random palette on the houses of St. John's to represent just how colourful the city is with our Jellybean Rowhouses! Considered manually trying to recreate the colour palettes from @hfnlca historic paints, but too many! #30DayMapChallenge

🗺️ DAY 1: POINTS - Decided to throw my hat in the ring again this year for the #30DayMapChallenge. Told myself I wasn't going to do this, but couldn't stand in front of the GIS design workshops and tell students to make some maps while NOT making maps myself. So here we are!
