I used Dreamweaver. Heavily.
With Fireworks for sliced images and webmaps

Then I learned how to write code without it

Pour info, j'ai intégré les coordonnées du centre des cartes afin de faciliter la géolocalisation des lieux sur les différentes webmaps. Merci à @Thomas31261952 (X) pour cette suggestion pratique.

Pour rappel : la légende des cartes et les sources sont visibles sur le tweet épinglé.

Remapping Data Sources after using Group Content Export/Import
We built several Experiences in our Development environment and need to promote them to our staging environment. After creating and importing the .epk file using, gorup content export, for the experience we need to remap the DataSources references to the corresponding, and already existing webmaps and feature services…

2/3 We’re excited to bring Equal Earth functionality to #OpenSource webmaps. That’s why we applied to the NLnet Foundation for support in adding this functionality to MapLibre GL JS. Thanks to Pavel Janecka for his great effort with the development so far!

OSRM and Valhalla can now route pedestrians straight across squares and plazas, not just around them. Stefan Keller breaks down how the two engines pull it off.

OSM-based navigation beyond paths with OSRM and Valhalla – Spatialists – geospatial news
While mainstream #webmaps still route #pedestrians around the edges of open spaces, #OpenStreetMap engines like #OSRM and #Valhalla make the leap to true area #routing across squares and other open spaces. This shift beyond line-based paths brings digital #navigation much closer to real-world human movement and urban #walkability.

Keep same ID when copying webmap / web app map from ArcGIS Portal to another one
Webmaps are shared with an URL containing the ID. Example: https://portal.com/portal/home/item.html?**id=8207f51d0c3d4b4193950beb2dcd21d4** When a webmap configuration is replaced by another, for example from an import with https://ago-assistant.esri.com/#, the id's are recreated. The sharing URLs are therefore changed since the ID is changed. I would like to copy a webmap / app from one portal to another always keeping the original ids. portal1:webmap:id:8207f51d0c3d4b4193950beb2dcd21d4 |_ copy to portal1:webmap:id:08fea3541c194075a94843645f733ccd and vice/versa keeping the same ids Can we use URLs on the name of the card? How to move while maintaining the id? I tried https://developers.arcgis.com/python/guide/cloning-content/#The-cloning-process with item_mapping parameter - This is a dictionary defined as {'source_item_id': 'target_item_id' }. But it does not work. No items are cloned.

⑵ Besides posting here during #UHA2025LA @charlotte-leib.bsky.social will be sharing a digital project this #Friday in #LA Titled "Wild Rice and Munsee Lenape Lifeways in the New Jersey Meadowlands," it is part of #OurLandOurStories our-land-our-stories.libraries.rutgers.edu/exhibits/sho... #envhist
Screenshot of a digital interactive map. The map comprises of several components. In the background are two side-by-side basemaps occupying different portions of the screen. The one at the left comprises of historical black & white aerial imagery from the 1930s. It shows a patchwork landscape of urban development, rivers & meadows as seen from a considerable distance above the earth, as in a satellite image (except in this case, the historic black & white imagery was taken from a plane and later stitched together to form the complete "layer" shown on the map). The basemap that appears beside it is a more recent satellite image, from the 2020s, that appears in color. The actual landscape shown is one landscape represented partway by the black & white aerial imagery, and partway by the color aerial imagery. Viewers familiar with New York City's geography will recognize the large rectilinear Central Park in Manhattan, which appears on the map's right-hand side. At left is the part of the landscape represented by the black and white historical aerial imagery, which comprises of Newark, Secaucus, Jersey City, and other towns along the Hudson River and Passaic and Hackensack Rivers. The layers comprise a large metropolitan landscape past and present. Upon the map, 2 areas are highlighted in beige and purple opaque layers. Atop is the purple layer, a white pop-up box with black text reads: " Sëkëxkuk: 'Place of the black snakes.' Departing from Munsee Lenape tradition, colonial settlers rendered Sëkëxkuk as Sikakes. Today, the spot is known as Secaucus in a further phonetic and orthographic distortion of the phrase. The historic presence of snakes in this area, where freshwater and saltwater once met at the penultimate bend of the Hackensack River, is reflected in original Munsee place name and in the name of nearby Snake Hill." Several placemarkers also appear on the map in blue. At the bottom right is a control bar with different map layers that the user can toggle. This image is a detail of the larger map project described in the last alt-text entry. This image is taken at a closer scale and different layers are turned on within it to show slightly different information. The layer that is turned on shows historic Munsee Lenape settlements along the Passaic River in New Jersey, and another layer, overlapped beneath it, shows historic Lenape place names (i.e. "Passayack, Atchunk, Espating, Wiehaekse, Meghegtecuck"). Atop these map layers are the same beige and purple highlighted areas. Two blue placemarkers are visible on these layers. There is also a dashed purple line stretching from the southernmost Lenape village represented on the basemap, along the Passaic River, to the southernmost tip of the two areas highlighted in beige and purple. Coming up from the blue placemarker that sits atop the purple layer is a pop-up box. The white pop-up box features a detail image of a herbarium specimen. That specimen is a dried wild rice plant. It appears with beige fronds and dense seedheads, strapped down by a piece of white paper. In the pop-up box where this herbaria specimen appears, there is a title. It reads: " pèhpastèk | Zizania aquatica. Collector: J. V. Monachino. Date: August 11, 1936. Location: "Near Union City". Hudson County. Source: New York Botanical Garden. On the upper left corner of the map is a plus/minus tool for zooming in and out. There is also a button for expanding full screen. At the bottom right are the Layer Opacity and Map Layer control bars. Along the bottom border of the image are some credits. They read: "Leaflet. Source: Kevin Wright & Bergen County Historical Society. Source: Newark Museum. © MapTiler & OpenStreetMap. A small Ukrainian flag icon appears next to the Leaflet label, inline with the small text. This text sits at the bottommost part of the map in small font. The main feature of the image is the wild rice herbarium specimen, and the map layers.

The Delaware Valley Regional Planning Commission publishes a tool that shows where sidewalks are missing: www.dvrpc.org/webmaps/side...

Embarrassingly Philadelphia's worst area is Fairmount Park which has many roads without any sidewalks.

To get that 42% number I'm looking at PennDOT's latest traffic counts for that stretch of road: gis.penndot.gov/tire/tms-sit...

And comparing to the latest bike / pedestrians averaged over a week from here: www.dvrpc.org/webmaps/traf...

On peak days it's likely over 50% biking / walking.

Philadelphia has a unique opportunity to reevaluate the stretch of I-95 through Center City and South Philly.

However right now it's on course to be rebuilt for $4.62 billion with construction lasting 17 years and ending in 2050.

Interestingly in 2024 usage of Philadelphia's Spruce St. bike lane has increased every month in the year.

Perhaps due to warmer weather? Or more people choosing to bike? This year's Oct. numbers are up significantly over last year.
