I was reminded by a forum post that I recently put together this proof-of-concept of Stellarstories, an idea to extend Terrastories to storytelling about the cosmos. It's just a basic demo of what it could look like, using the highly customizable d3-celestial library.
After @foss4ga, wrapping up an interesting week here at Conservation Metrics and Terrastories, implementing Protomaps PMTiles for two projects.
MapLibre+PMTiles is a game changer for the space of building offline-first FOSS mapping tech for Indigenous communities 🧵

This month, Terrastories achieved a landmark that I'm really excited about!
For the first time ever, using a new feature called #ExploreTerrastories , some of the content that communities have been creating on Terrastories can be explored freely without needing to log in 🧵
📣Check out #ExploreTerrastories !
🍃A freshly released feature of Terrastories that weaves a bridge between local processes and a broader public, through place-based stories that communities have decided to share online.

A most wanted Terrastories feature has finally been built 🎉
It is now possible to add latitude and longitude coordinates for a Place by interacting with a map! 📍🌎
This works in both online and offline hosting environments, and is already live on our server 🙂
Este fue el resultado de un recopilado de tecnologias, recursos y herramientas para el despliegue de redes comunitarias de Wi-Fi en zonas rurales.
Entres esto el Libre Router desarrollado por AlterMundi.net y las aplicaciones Mapeo y Terrastories de Digital Democracy
As Scientific American reports, Indigenous groups are developing their own data protection technologies, “work that demonstrates how ordinary people have the power to sidestep the tech companies and data brokers” who seek to profit off our identities and culture.
