Day 109 of #365DaysOfMaps. April 19th is National Hanging Out Day. A day to extol the benefits of air-drying your laundry. Yep. Really. Allows me to give a nod to a famous mapping quote, and AI to miscount an entire continent.
Hung Out to Dry 109/365

What if you project a projection? 🤔🌎Created in #ArcGISPro using picture markers and a creative twist on the View Dome tool, @nathancshephard’s animation “pushes” each map projection out from the place it was invented.
