Today we’re launching Open Climate Risk, a fully open option for U.S. building-level climate risk data. It’s unique because it allows you to see not only risk scores, starting with wildfire, but also the complete underlying dataset, methods, and codebase. carbonplan.org/research/cli...

Weeknotes: 2026W01 Couple things I’ve been working on in the new year: a new national view for PlanScore and new Overture data support for Protomaps

Two things that have been keeping me busy lately: a slate of changes to @planscore.org for this year’s surprise midcycle redistricting environment, and a collection of contributions to @protomaps.com base maps including support for @overturemaps.bsky.social data.

Mapping 650,000+ Texas Census blocks with PMTiles – WALKER DATA GIS, demographics, and data science consulting

If you work in geospatial, PMTiles is one of the technologies you need to know going into 2026.

This past year, I wrote an R package to help you get started.

New CLI feature: pmtiles merge The pmtiles CLI now includes the highly requested merge command for combining multiple tilesets into a single archive. As an example use case: the Mapterhorn project distributes several archives: plan...

people kept asking for pmtiles merge, now there is pmtiles merge, inevitably they will ask why it refuses to work for overlapping inputs, here is why merging tilesets is hard (blog post):

Map updates, December 2025 - Now with more PMTiles In addition to 2025, we’ve also added new imagery from 1920, 1936 and 1961 all produced using the Allmaps Editor to georeference existing collections materials. I’ll talk more about some of the tools ...

The @sfomuseum.bsky.social aviation collection has new aerial imagery / and we have published some experimental work about hosting and serving the entire planet OSM @protomaps.com pmtiles database, locally and offline, on a recycled ipad – millsfield.sfomuseum.org/blog/2025/12...

Nice work and good to see @protomaps.com finding adoption in major news outlets!

Also, the perfect occasion to make use of our new MapLibre/Protomaps scroller component.

I love when apps clearly attribute their map source.

I'll also share some latest developments using @protomaps.com and @maplibre.org to self-host vector maps with custom layers, beautiful rendering and seamless zoom, in case you are interested in that type of thing 🗺️

New blog post on @mapterhorn.com - terrain for web mapping

protomaps.com/blog/mapterh...

mapgl for #rstats supports @protomaps.com PMTiles as a data source in both @maplibre.org and @mapbox.com maps.

If you need to visualize large datasets but struggle with hosting / infrastructure requirements, PMTiles may be exactly what you need.

Have you been waiting for "Protomaps Terrain"?

It's arriving! @mapterhorn.com is an independent project created by @oliverwipfli.ch - a global elevation model built from multiple sources, distributed as a single PMTiles archive

Great to see protomaps go from strength to strength with handy open source viewer. www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Qn3...

I'd like to give a big thanks to @protomaps.com for their fantastic work. Our open source Android port of Soundscape, the navigation and exploration app for visually impaired uses a protomaps server and it's reduced the cost to the supporting charities by a huge amount. github.com/Scottish-Tec...

There's an ongoing issue preventing PMTiles hosted on GitHub Pages from being loaded correctly in Firefox
