New version of {maplegend} ! 📦
{maplegend} is an R package for creating, well, map legends. 🙂
This version improves the display of legends in plots and introduces two new features: a histogram legend type, and arguments to set decimal and big value separators.

I made a gap of the Broad Rental Market Areas (BRMAs) in #QGIS (because I wanted it, and also an excuse to try QGIS) to try and work out where we can afford to start a housing co-op.

This bit of stitchwork would be very appealing to the GIS/mapping folks, I imagine!

In celebration of #GISDay 2025 here is the only instance I know where geographic information systems and geodatabases are specifically named and described, to vampires, in a major motion picture.

#introduction

👋 Hi all ! I am a research engineer at CNRS 🇫🇷, working at the UAR RIATE on the development of applications or libraries for the visualization or the processing of geographic information.
I did my PhD in Grenoble 🏔️🚁 about Semantic Web and geovisualisation.

I love #foss, #python, #rust, #JSspatial, #osm, #dataviz, #qgis and #gis in general.
Also maintainer of https://magrit.cnrs.fr 🗺️ (thematic cartography tool).

Time for an #introduction 👋

My name is Morten, I'm PhD student at the #Geography department at Uppsala Uni. Currently writing on the topic of #Segregation in relation to #tenureMix and #socialMix

My background is within #housingStudies and #urbanStudies

Interests: #rstats #quantitativeMethods #gis #mixedMethods and all things #neighborhood #academia

Today I did some small changes to a #qgis plugin by changing three or maybe four lines of code, but that improved usability a lot, already. And I see further small improvements that look a bit obscure now, but may become doable if I understand enough Qt/PySide to edit the source code where needed.
