New in #MapComplete :

- @protomaps are now available as background layer
- All other #vector background layers were apparently broken as well. Not anymore! Carto, Alidade, MapTiler carto, Americana, ... all work again
- A new #map about memorials is now available: https://mapcomplete.org/memorials.html

(To change the background layer, press the 'layers' icon on the bottom left)

A new thematic #map arrived: https://mapcomplete.org/ski

It features an interactive display of:

- #ski pistes
- #aerialways
- 3D-visualisation of the terrain
- various useful POI, such as #guideposts, information boards, #restaurants mountain #rescue stations, ...

All data is of course based on #OpenStreetMap (with the addition of height data and aerial imagery of course)

This might or might not be created because @pietervdvn went #skiing last week ;)

Ski pistes and aerialways

Everything you need to go skiing

While at NASA/JPL the other day, I visited an old friend: the hand assembled and colored map from the first Mariner 4 tv image. A geologist got impatient waiting for the image processing folks to assemble the image, so they printed out the raw values onto tiny strips, stapled them to a wall, and hand-colored it with pastels. To save the map, it was sawed out of the wall and framed as a gift to the Lab director. Recently remounted and preserved. #NASA #JPL #Map #Mariner4 #Pastels #Geologist
Me, Dr. Fred J. Calef III, wearing a baseball cap, red N95 mask, and brown/black jacket, standing in front of the pastel Mariner map. It was hand colored from numbers printed in vertical strips of paper in yellow, orange, and brown pastels.
A legend for the pastel Mariner map. Labels, top to bottom, black vertical line labeled “Edge of Frame”, dark brown swatch , 50-45 DN ‘Dark’, umber swatch, 45-40 DN, orange swatch, 40-35 DN, white swatch, 35-30 DN, orange-yellow swatch, 30-25 DN, yellow swatch, 25-30 DN, ‘Light’.
Five Rembrandt Artist Pastels in colors left to right, dark brown, orange, “Flesh Ochre”, pale orange, “Lemon Yellow”. These are the original pastels used to make the pastel Mariner map. NASA/JPL-Caltech.
Historical picture of two men, each wearing indentical white dress short-sleeved shorts, black pants, black belts, and having short black cropped hair standing in front of the pastel Mariner map on a white drywall wall at NASA/JPL. Image from July 14, 1965. Official caption reads, “Telecommunications engineers at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory putting the finishing touches on their color-by-number version of Mariner 4's digital data.”
