Very surprised to know one of the very first steam locomotives that ran in Japan was made in Sheffield!!

I wrote about winning the Transport Data Hackathon on Medium - and featured on Data Science Collective!

I wanted to share I won a transport data hackathon on Medium but my intended audience is definitely planners and transport people rather than data scientists
Looking for a nice publication that I can contribute on, but without success

『急がば漕げマップ』公共交通オープンデータチャレンジ2024の最優秀賞いただきました！！！

『急がば漕げマップ』の開発者ブログを更新しています！ 今回はチームメンバーが自分たちで作った地図を実際に使用してみた話です

The go-to source for Japanese geospatial data is finally trying to migrate from #shapefile and doing some public opinioning to see which one is best!!

See ya to .shp (and .dbf, .shx, .prj, and whatever else that they need)!

公共交通オープンデータチャレンジの結果が気になりすぎる今日このごろ
結構直前に発表されるのね

Finally managed to update my contributions to the #30DayMapChallenge 2024 to my online portfolio! This might be too many maps on one page......
https://sokimura39.github.io/projects/30DayMapChallenge.html

Trying to migrate from one place to another by cross-posting to both for a while - hope this works!

#公共交通オープンデータチャレンジ 投稿作品「急がば漕げマップ」を公開しました！

自転車で駅同士をショートカットする経路検索で、普段の移動の中で自転車をちょい乗りしませんか？という提案です
シェアサイクル事業者や自治体を利用者層と想定したちょい乗りポテンシャルが高い地域も表示でき、自転車まちづくりにも貢献するのでは、との思いも込めています

ぜひ遊んでみてください↓

#Sheffield is the second best city break in Europe?
Did I choose the right place to settle for my career break and study, or does this ranking - crowning Marseille the best - not understand what a city break is?

The #30DayMapChallenge is over but one I shared elsewhere before coming here
Day 4 - Hexagons / Commercial POI Density in Tokyo, aggregated by the H3 grid

Suburban stations and the city centre is pretty apparent, although the dense centre is Ueno (not really the busiest)

Made with #blender3d #b3d

Blueskyに日本の都市計画 / まちづくり・GISの界隈はどれくらい進出してきているんだろうか
Twitter / Xから移住してくる流れはまだかな？

#30DayMapChallenge Day 26 - Map Projections
Stars!
I found a rabbit hole of astronomical coordinate systems - map projections of stars! The galactic system takes the Milky Way's Galactic Plane as the equator, the equatorial system is based on the Earth's equator - this is what we're more used to

Trying the gradual migration from Twitter to here
I have a feeling I am too intoxicated to be posting the same thing in two different platforms

#30DayMapChallenge Day 18 - 3D
3D Map of Sheffield

A 3D map of the steel city Sheffield centred around our infamous Arts Tower, made in steel style!
Created using #b3d #blender3d

A map from #30DayMapChallenge to kick off this account
Day 12 - Time and Space
An interactive map of Tokyo's rail network showing the travel time from the selected station
Although data is not complete, it's interesting to see how we can travel on the network

Potential migration from Twitter ( x.com/sokim39 )
Let's see how things turn out, hoping this is a better place to be
