Day 14: 30 Day Map Challenge - Data: OpenStreetMap

Zoomed-in walkable cores for DC, Amsterdam, Tokyo, and London. I used Overpass to pull OSM footways, pedestrian streets, and steps, styled on top of an ArcGIS dark basemap.

Day 13: 30 Day Map Challenge - 10 minute map

A quick app that maps what you can reach within a 10 minute walk from any point on Earth. Search or click the map and the walk shed is generated using the ArcGIS Routing service.

Day 12: 30 Day Map Challenge 2025 - Map from 2025

A field guide from a future time travel agency: this app maps "time tourist hotspots" around the world, where each city is tied to a favorite era to visit and a short note about the vibes.

Day 11: 30 Day Map Challenge – Minimal map

A minimal map that displays a single country outline. Boundaries come from an ArcGIS feature layer, the dropdown loads automatically, and the light vector basemap keeps the focus on the shape.

Day 10: 30 Day Map Challenge - Air

I explored the new FlowRenderer-in-3D in ArcGIS JS SDK 4.34 by customizing the official wind sample with mood presets, a perspective toggle, and a purple glow ramp.

Day 9: 30 Day Map Challenge - Analog

A movable lens contrasts the ArcGIS Topographic basemap styled like ink on paper with the Imagery basemap of real satellite pixels. Toggle texture or swap layers to feel analog-style cartography beside a digital view.

Day 8: 30 Day Map Challenge - Urban

I mapped neighborhoods in Boston, London, and Toronto to show how each city's layout creates a unique texture. Built with the ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript and Calcite components for easy city and style changes.

Day 7: 30 Day Map Challenge - Accessibility

A map that speaks your language. Built with Esri Leaflet and the ArcGIS Basemap Styles service, this app lets users switch place labels into any of 30+ languages. Inclusivity check ✔️

Day 6: 30 Day Map Challenge - Dimensions

I used two dimensions together: cylinder height = data value, and radius = enriched area. Click to fetch local facts with the ArcGIS GeoEnrichment service, adjust radius or height scale, and hover to explore stats.

For this map, I combined satellite imagery with human geography layers to show how people and nature share space.

Day 4: 30 Day Map Challenge - My Data 🎤

Since I just finished up my last conference talk for 2025, I thought it was fitting to map all the places I presented at this year. Built with Esri Leaflet and Calcite for a clean, interactive layout.

Day 3: 30 Day Map Challenge - Polygons

To mark National Sandwich Day (November 3rd), I built a layered map of Washington, DC, stacking the boundary, building footprints, parks and water like the ingredients of a sandwich. 🥪

Day 2: 30 Day Map Challenge - Lines

November 2 also happens to be Look for Circles Day ⭕, so I built a map that highlights ring roads around the world. These circular highways loop around cities like London, Paris, and D.C.

Day 1: 30 Day Map Challenge - Points 📍

The first day of the challenge coincides with Prime Meridian Day, so I mapped cities near 0° longitude in a simple Esri Leaflet map.
