⚽ Is synthetic turf taking over European football? 🇩🇪 leads on grass with 27.8k (78%) pitches, but 🇪🇸 & 🇹🇷 have flipped to 54% synthetic turf and 🇲🇹 sits at 91% artificial turf! PitchWatch maps these surface classes globally using #Copernicus #Sentinel2 satellite imagery. 👉️ map.pitchwatch.football

Every football pitch tells a story ⚽ Ash pitches get refurbished to grass 🌱 grass gets replaced by synthetic turf. These shifts happen continuously, but they are rarely tracked at scale. 👉️ pitchwatch.football monitors football pitches & classifies surface types, and is mapping changes over time.

Interaktive Karten werden oft bei kommerziellen Anbietern außerhalb der EU eingekauft. Das bringt Abhängigkeit, Rechtsunsicherheit und kann mehrere 10'000 € im Monat kosten. Unser Gegenvorschlag: Lasst uns digitale Infrastruktur gemeinsam über ein Konsortium betreiben. 🧵 versatiles.org/consortium/de

I made a map of 3.4 million Bluesky users - see if you can find yourself! bluesky-map.theo.io I've seen some similar projects, but IMO this seems to better capture some of the fine-grained detail

🔌💡 Power outage from April 28 in the Iberian Peninsula is in parts still visible from space. This VIIRS nighttime imagery shows a clear drop in light emissions across southeast Spain (Almería, Murcia, Albacete) on April 29, 2025. lnkd.in/gghZ__Kh 🌍 Data: NASA Worldview / Suomi NPP VIIRS #PowerOutage
Just came back from the Fisherman's Trail (Rota Vicentina) in South-West Portugal. 10 days (240km) of ocean views • wind • waves • plenty of sun • but also rain. Loved it. 🇵🇹
