Maps, software, and science
Guide to the window seat. An offline flight map that reveals the geology, ecosystems, and human works below your airplane window, with 3D terrain, guides to clouds and landscapes, and augmented reality that labels landmarks on your camera's view.
Read the rocks around you. A geology app that shows the geologic map wherever you are and drapes it over the hills in front of you in augmented reality, each rock unit named. Pull up any unit for its age, fossils found nearby, and where it lay on the globe when it formed. Works offline.
A universe explorer in the browser. Real catalogs where we've measured, best estimates where we haven't, and continuous flight from Earth's surface to the deep field. Search for stars, exoplanets, nebulae, and galaxies, fly to them, or share the flight with friends.
Scrolling map and drone footage visualization of ongoing environmental justice issues for this story in ProPublica.
Open source MapLibre and Mapbox layer that renders Zarr datasets directly on the GPU, in globe or Mercator projections, reprojecting on the fly.
Click a few spots on a map and similar places light up, or define land cover classes and get a classification map. AlphaEarth and TESSERA satellite embeddings are read straight from cloud storage with zarr-layer and scored on the GPU, entirely in the browser.
Every geotagged English Wikipedia article as GeoParquet and PMTiles, enriched from Wikidata and rebuilt monthly. The demo maps all of them and queries the Parquet directly in the browser with DuckDB.
Building-level wildfire risk for the contiguous United States, today and under future climate. CarbonPlan's highest-resolution dataset yet, served straight to the browser with cloud-native formats.
Interactive tool built at CarbonPlan with [C]Worthy to explore where and when adding alkalinity to the ocean removes the most CO₂, and how that removal plays out over time.
Companion tool built at CarbonPlan with [C]Worthy for direct ocean removal. Explore how extracting CO₂ from seawater in a given region and season leads to carbon removal over time, and how storage losses change the result.
Search petabytes of commercial satellite imagery and publicly available digital elevation models.
Worked with NASA scientists to visualize billions of tree crown polygons across the Sahara. Processed computer vision output on HPC systems to transform it for performant visualization in the browser. Cover story of Nature's March 2023 edition.
Designed and implemented this D3-based map animation showing the dispossession of Native land in the early 1800s for a story in ProPublica's Repatriation Project.
Designed a Blender-based visualization of the 2021 Antarctic eclipse.
Interactive map outlining the impacts of the Line 3 tar sands oil pipeline.
