Sun and shade across the Madison isthmus today. View NW. Lidar from USGS using Jupyter notebook from @opentopography.bsky.social. Sun position using #suntools R package; perspective view and shadows modeled with #rayshader. Needs work but I like it. Will share the script when I get around to it.

Python can render river landscapes in rich 3D.

This Snake River Relative Elevation Model near Grand Teton shows braided channels, floodplain traces, and subtle terrain scars using USGS 3DEP elevation data, OSM waterways, and forge3d.

New basemap options include:
🛩️ NAIP imagery (true color, color infrared, NDVI),
🗺️ Historical imagery from the USGS archive
🌐 1-m topography layers from USGS 3DEP.

These layers bring landscapes into focus and make it easier to interpret satellite data
