Mapping my Lyft ride activity from June 2018 to March 2020.
Using geolocation data for my Lyft rides as a passenger to create an interactive map that shows my destination and origin locations. The data covers the USA.
- Zoom out to see the cities where I used Lyft to get around. Cities with labels contain data, sometimes only a few points.
- Note the legend in the below images in case the legend in the link is chopped off.

Vulnerability of Melbourne's urban forest
I found some comprehensive data on tree canopy coverage in Melbourne from 2019 on the City of Melbourne Open Data site and tree traits are always fun to plot in 3D.
The data cover species, genera, height (DBH), life expectancy, latlons, year and date planted, precinct location, to name a few. I plotted tree locations and height to show some patterns, e.g. you can see where tall trees have been cleared in areas that are known to have high rise apartments buildings. I added life expectancy as the colour factor to get a snapshot idea of planting activity by the city council and choice of species over time. Lots more to explore.

The climate risk of crops in Vietnam
Exploring exposure of coffee, cashew, and cassava crops in Vietnam to climate risk.
There are tonnes of open data on climate change impacts and I've worked a lot with gridded climate, microclimate, environment, and habitat data in the past. I originally planned on doing a risk map for coffee plantations in Colombia (maybe down the track), but the good stuff is paywalled by UNESCO under heritage listing and, of course, there's a daily deadline for this mapping challenge.
I stumbled across these data from the International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT) on Vietnam, including shp files, and I had to dive in. The risk indices are defined by summed values of climate change representative concentration pathway (8.5 2050), which is an international standard, county exposure to natural hazards, poverty rate (measured by the Gini coefficient), health care, infrastructure, organisational capacity, and education.

For the Miyazaki fans AKA seeing if I could bend R to my will.
My maps are usually data-driven because there are never enough data, but this was a simpler design one where I set the challenge of plotting images/arrays within geom polygons in R. An easy enough task in design and image software, but not so trivial in R. Turns out it can be done. Shout out to user @inscaven on Stackoverflow for the code base.
I also figured out how to plot images/arrays within polygons for different map projections. I may do a write up on this in the future. For now, this is a useful tool to have in my arsenal.
There is also the ggpattern package for filling geoms with geometric patterns that I want to dive into to test some of the capabilities.

The Great Feral Camel Crater of Australia
Did you know Australia has camels? Millions of feral ones, roaming the deserts like big, roaming, feral camels. There are so many camels, the data almost blew up my laptop trying to map them. Here are some fun facts about Australia's feral camels:
- Largest global population of feral, dromedary (one-humped) camels
- 3.3 million km2 total dispersal range (about 40% of rural Australia)
- About 0.5–2 camels / kms2
- First introduced in 1840, so that's a long time for camels to settle
- Compunded annual growth at an enviable 8% pa over the last 70 years
I found these data online from Northern Territory's Department of the Environment and Natural Resources and the original research paper from Saalfeld & Edwards (2010). Low density (magenta) represents approx. 0.25 camels, high density (white) represents ~2 camels. Lots of camels.

70 years of Russian refugee resettlement
More of a take on no boundaries through the lense of no boundaries between country borders for refugees, economically-displaced peoples, migrants, and new horizon seekers.
I found these human migration data online from the UN Refugee Agency and being close to my own Russian heritage, I wanted to see what patterns in Russian refugee and emigration numbers emerged over the decades. The original dataset is broken up into individual years, but it looked super messy when I first mapped it, so I instead collapsed the data into decades to make for a neater map.
Notes
- Width of lines = decade of migration scaled relatively from 1950 to 2010
- Frequency of line movement = proxy for the quantity (number of refugees)
- Hover over the lines to view the refugee migration numbers for that country
- Zoom and tilt (hold CMD/CTRL) around the map to explore

I've been meaning to dive into Framer ever since I watched a webinar a few months ago. It's really fun and intuitive. You can integrate Mapbox's features and preload data using imported tilesets, then prototype the interface in Framer.
Lots of things to map for a first project, so here are biking directions from Framer HQ in Amsterdam to my favourite brewery.
If you don't know what Framer is, it's a prototyping tool. Tons of features, interactions, device platforms, graphics, icon sets.
Here's the process:
- Import the directional KML data into Mapbox Studio
- Design the map in Mapbox Studio
- Link the Mapbox API into Framer and use features such as SequentialLocationMap from the Mapbox components package
- Design the interface (layout, transitions, buttons, etc) in Framer using an iPhone 11 as a template
The cool thing is you can open the prototype on your own mobile and use regular gestures to navigate the interface.
