Nifty QGIS feature:
If you have a raster map image and you know the projection (in this case I recognized it as Wagner VII), you can just use the Georeferencer tool, put in a few points and assign the projection. Just use the setting ”linear” if you know that no warping is necessary.

Just pushed the 3000th issue of the daily geospatial links digest

https://geoinquiets.github.io/rafagas/2025/04-11.html

We've translated 8463 links since 2015-06-04 by @Raf, but he actually started circa 2011.

Sharing here a few basic metrics from the CSV we generate along the digest for anyone to leverage.

If you create, or are curious about, #VectorTiles, you may have come across the command line utility #Tippecanoe (TIP-ə-kə-NOO).
