Detailed map of bumps from Bump
- 0x12 15y agoWe've come a long way from "warning: 800x600 pixel gif here", this image is so big however that I think that a warning is suitable, if you are not on a machine with a lot of memory you should probably not click on the large version of that image unless you'd like to listen to your hard drive for the next half hour or so.
- shabble 15y agoCutting it into tiles and creating a custom Google Maps view of it would have been nice. It looks[1] reasonably simple to do, and means your users don't need to try and render a 15kpixel wide image. Even with 4G (ok, that's not all that much these days, but I still consider it reasonable) of RAM, it took down my browser.

- andrewcooke 15y agoha! you can see the main routes from santiago (chile) to the coast (valparaiso and vina del mar). when were the data taken? those roads would have been very busy this last weekend (independence day here).
- cperry 15y agonice! this is an aggregate view from the full month of august, so we wouldn't have picked up el dia de independencia, sadly.
- phil 15y agoBack in the day when Meebo was a web IM client, they had a similar heat map updated every few minutes. I wrote a script that grabbed it and stitched the grabs together into a visualization of their traffic over a month or two. Never got around to publishing it anywhere though. I can probably find it if there's interest.

- guard-of-terra 15y agoBrave? Ones in the south are probably some tourists; One in Pyongyang must be kids of some very important parents, ones who travel and study abroad. Neither demographic counts as very brave.
- ivankirigin 15y agoOhh, I didn't realized you'd interviewed them. My apologies
- guard-of-terra 15y agoI don't see how using a certain program for a phone makes oneself brave.
- davidw 15y agoGreenland? Wow... Really? It almost seems too much to believe to see dots in some of the random places they have them.
- JoeAltmaier 15y agoCute. But so much more could be learned from maps like this, if you could overlay a map of, well, pretty much anything else on top, and look for correlations. Population density, political boundaries, G3 support, economy, whatever.
- wlievens 15y agoCute map, but pretty huge and hard to zoom in. I have substantial OpenLayers and GeoServer/WMS experience. OP: if you're interested in an interactive navigable map to show this information (perhaps updated dynamically), let me know.
