One of my main motivators for contributing to DuckDB early on was the impact that open-source software can make on society. I love learning how we facilitate or influence areas we couldn't foresee when thinking of "just building" a DBMS.

New blog post! What's an interpolation? Why is it important for your choropleth maps? And what are the different kinds of interpolations (linear, natural, quantiles, deciles, etc.) good for? Our writer @lisacmuth explains it all in simple terms: blog.datawrapper.de/interpol…

☑️ 1/3 done - turning the "Waldbrandgefahrenindex" (index of a forest being in danger of fire) by the @DWD_klima into an interactive app. The following repository contains daily updates in spatial and tabular format: github.com/marcosci/dwd_wbi_… #rstats #rspatial #climate

I'm excited to write in detail about this in the coming weeks, but the teaser version is that #rstats geoarrow 🌏⏩ will (1) make the arrow 📦 "just work" with spatial data and (2) make working with big files faster/multi-file datasets possible!

For the past few months, I’ve been implementing a data differ (a tool that takes two SQL queries and explains what makes their results different), and I finally wrote a blog post about it here: blog.marcua.net/2022/02/20/d…

The change in the left image is obviously smaller than in the right. But how can this be measured? In my first blog post, I explain how to quantify similarities between maps with the earth movers distance how this is implemented in #python and #rstats alexandrakapp.blog/2021/12/0…

Just noticed the new time-series data for #worldvaluessurvey, which is mercifully now in R serialized data frame form. Good opportunity to plug this #rstats post of mine about how to further economize size and speed of these data w/ some SQL/"tidy" magic. svmiller.com/blog/2020/11/sm…

In 1715 they cut off pieces of The Night Watch. These have never been found. That’s why we’ve had so-called artificial neural networks working overtime on reconstructing the original appearance of the painting. 🖥️ 🚨 Visit our website to find out more: rijksmuseum.nl/en/stories/op…

GitHub built Flag Viewer, a tool that takes any public repo and returns a nice GUI for exploring its data files (JSON, CSV). To use it, just prepend `flat` to the domain name of any GitHub repo’s URL. Example: flatgithub.com/mathiasbynens…

Still early, but the forthcoming version of the #rstats geos 📦 will have a wk reader/writer. Among other things, this could mean fast/low alloc roundtripping between sf and geos! Also, opportunity to read e.g. shapefiles direct to geos pointers without pivoting through wkb!

If you use #rstats to prep data for Mapbox tilesets the recommendation is to use line-delimited geojson (for faster processing, bit.ly/3n9hNFj). The sf package makes this easy:
