TIL that Meta/FB actually has a simplified single-table database schema based on their #OpenStreetMap-derived #DaylightMap distribution called Earth Table. It has several themes like "building", "road", and "water" further divided into classes and subclasses. They first announced this at the #NACIS2022 conference and I actually think this is closer to what #OvertureMaps is going to be rather than Daylight Map itself.

P.S. TIL that Jennings Anderson now works for Meta.

#30DayMapChallenge For Days 1 - 4 I decided to use Felt. The mapping platform that was demo'd at this year's #NACIS2022 I also decided it would be cool.to give the felt team my feedback using my map. (I don't know how the will see it.. but whatever)
