Pinhead v5 is now released with 38 icons added since v3, including icons from the OSM Americana map style. I also added a page where you can compare Pinhead to the likes of Maki, NPS, and OSM Carto pinhead.ink/coverage/ github.com/waysidemapping/pinhead/releases/tag/v5.0.0

Just released: Pinhead Map Icons I was tired of digging through different sources to find good map icons, so I compiled all the public domain sources I could find into one unified set. You’ll see familiar faces from the likes of iD, OSM Carto, and NPS, plus some new additions. Enjoy! pinhead.ink

Now posted: my talk from State of the Map Europe back in November. I had a blast talking about the differences between American and European OpenStreetMap. I believe I was the only person from the US to fly in specifically for this conference. Great event! www.youtube.com/watch?v=CNPi...

Recently had some fun micromapping Pillar Falls in Idaho's Snake River Canyon. Featuring dramatic basalt pillars, this falls runs over exposed bedrock much of the year (intermittent=yes in OpenStreetMap terms). This makes for a popular local hangout spot and an interesting place to map

Back when I worked on iD (the default OpenStreetMap editor) I designed over 270 bespoke map icons to illustrate various feature types. These are free and open source. A guided gallery of my icon work is now available on my portfolio: waysidemapping.org/projects/id-...

Last summer I imported 16,000+ USGS gaging stations into OpenStreetMap. Not content with a one-time import, I built a tool to keep the data up-to-date going forward. I've published a writeup of the project over on my portfolio: waysidemapping.org/projects/usg...

I've finished mapping Utah's Jordan River Water Trail in OpenStreetMap. Paddlers can follows this well-developed, 51-mile paddle route through the Wasatch Front from Utah Lake to the edge of the Great Salt Lake. Browse the data in OpenTrailMap: opentrailmap.us#map=8.79/40....

Saddened to hear about the destruction of the Grand Canyon Lodge on the North Rim last month. I was lucky to visit in July 2021, four years and five days before it burned down. I happened to snap a few offhand shots of the structure, now available in the public domain over on Wikimedia Commons.
