@seatsixtyone It might be useful to add to the children section of your website that children under 6 travel for free: bahn.de/faq/deutschlan…

At long last it seems there’s an easy way to buy a €49 Deutschland Ticket for a specific month with a one-off credit card payment. Unlimited travel all over Germany on regional trains, no subscription, no direct debits, no faff.

ziemlich unglücklich formulierte Bildunterschrift, liebe @SZ #Stereotyp

@datenschatz In Hessen gibt es offene Geodaten: gds.hessen.de

The New York Times has dubbed 2023 the Year of the Long Walk - including on the new Transcaucasian Trail. We couldn't agree more. 🥾 nytimes.com/2023/06/19/tra…

@antoniolocandro I'm no expert, but I think your motherboard needs to support Wake-on-LAN (WoL). Then the easiest option is probably to just use teamviewer (teamviewer.com/en/info/wake-o…). Worked great for me in the past!

I want to remotely turn on a computer back home; what would be the requirements considering it has internet connection but not a dedicated up probably 🤔 Due to time zone waking people to turn it on not feasible 😅

Experimenting with some new terrain styles in Blender. Props if you know where this is.

oops, here's the data source: DWD opendata.dwd.de/climate_enviro…

Would've liked more sunshine though 🫤

We will be moving soon to central Germany. Luckily the climate is not quite as bad as anticipated compared to other places I've lived. Total precipitation: #qgis #gischat

@NwwYuanyuam Thank you, I appreciate the compliment

@sidapo_cartisan I am a water resources engineer, I like your map

I've been working some more on the Caucasus map: - increased terrain generalization - hillshade highlights with yellowish tint - tweaked land cover colors - blurred land cover raster #qgis #gischat #maps #workinprogress

@NwwYuanyuam Mostly. I made parts of the terrain shading with pyramid shader and raster chunk processor. All #FOSS 😊

@sidapo_cartisan Qgis？

@NwwYuanyuam Thank you. I just found that data set and am also very happy with it

@sidapo_cartisan Yes, I like it

work in progress... #gischat #qgis #maps #caucasus

@NwwYuanyuam Not sure what you mean? I got the river network for this map from hydrosheds.org

@sidapo_cartisan Do you make river map?

@KohrsRobin That's just an 'inverted' (white-to-black) DEM with blend mode set to 'lighten' + a bit of trial and error for manual min/max settings

@sidapo_cartisan That's so awesome!!:) How do you get this foggy/misty look in the valles?:)

@NwwYuanyuam A trailhead map showcasing the Transcausian Trail (the final map will be 1-2m wide)

@sidapo_cartisan What work

@MathiasGroebe Thank you. The terrain is generalized (but rather subtle) since I was going for a "DRAMATIC TERRAIN" look. (Also, the final output will be a 1-2m large format print). But I will try out a more generalized version as well 😊
