Also Terrible Maps should know about this abomination, maybe.

The downside of preparing a talk about your fancy visualization software is that it's hard to make slides at short notice — you can always make your software just that little bit fancier.

Peak mapping chaos

The first public beta of Mapboard GIS 3.0 is now out on TestFlight! It's a HUGE update to the app's internals, with many fixes and fantastic new drawing tools. I'm excited to receive feedback and bug reports before release... testflight.apple.com/join/0TfVlWyN mapboard-gis.app

I gave a fancy talk in a fancy place!

Excited to report that Mapboard GIS version 3 is on the App Store. It's been cooking for long time, with huge Mapbox and OSGeo https://fosstodon.org/@osgeo updates under the hood. It also has a new "reshape" tool that makes map editing even more fun! mapboard-gis.app/docs/ios/relea…

Happy to report another release of mapboard-gis.app, version 3.3.0, which, among other improvements, allows drawing maps in 3D! Surprisingly, (and owing to the great work at Mapbox), this really was trivial to add, even with the editing overlay. 🎉

Mapboard is progressing to the point where debugging over the last few days has mostly been idle sketching of British Columbia fjordland coasts. The fun-to-annoyance ratio has been moving in a positive direction!
