Vector tiles for openstreetmap.org: Yesterday, the #OpenStreetMap Foundation (#OSMF) launched #vectortiles on #OSM, delivering a sharper and faster map powered by a new backend. Developers may use the OSMF-hosted tiles under the Vector Tile Usage Policy and apply their own map styles.

Help from the #rstats folks. I have a landuse raster and a state raster. I want to tabulate the area of each landuse in each state. I've been reading {terra} docs but I can't figure out which function to use (`zonal` or `crostab`, `freq`).
I believe I've done this before but I can´t remember how. Any tips?
I would really like some recommendations for a maps mobile/webapp for noting down places that is NOT Google maps #gischat
Note: I used to use maps.me but it has become quite enshittified. I dis some research and recently explored maptera for Android, but it's missing a lot of features and can't export your data. I'm finding it hard to identify any alternative to Google maps.

@defuneste In an Australian context, ESRI breach the (federal) government supplier code of conduct with this. Yet still - they get paid.
Also cue all the yahbuts about ESRI Australia being a separate legal entity etc etc etc...
Digital housekeeping leads to recalling interesting stories. Here's a good one - part 3 of answering questions about terrain, water and vegetation with a small backpackable drone. Plus @qgis and @OpenDroneMap
...and some maybe-nice cartography
As always, I'm open for #consulting, #contracting, #freelance work and even permanent jobs to work on these things. These days preferring the 'vision setting', leadership and training components.
