open #geosocial notes at here.leaflet.pub for discussion during #atmosphereconf #atgeo #atproto
note especially fresh updates on atgeo.org to see XRPC Places API
lets chat and props for all the effort @shuylerjansen.bsky.social @ngerakines.me @essentialrandom.bsky.social @montoulieu.dev @bmann.ca
oh! And @schuyler.info has gotten #atgeo stuff up and running and ready to share - we may want to figure out a Sunday unconf session around geo
How cool is that? 📷🌎
Great work @polijan.bsky.social on atlas.atmo.pics! Really excited to see where this goes.
#ATProtocol #ATGeo
Might be relevant for #ATGeo @lexicon.community
This is something that @bmann.ca, @knowtheory.net, and I were talking about a while ago. With the recent work to get @dropanchor.app and @beaconbits.app integrated, I figured why not, we can just do things, right? #ATProtocol #ATGeo
Very excited to have more cross-application functionality and integration in @smokesignal.events. Thanks @tijs.org and @montoulieu.dev for paving the way and making rich geo information available and easy to use with @lexicon.community records. #ATProtocol #ATGeo
Yeah it rests on #ATGeo having venues and venue lookup. It’s been fun testing @dropanchor.app - we need to ship venue search to make it actually good and fast.
Yep. Like, I imported my IG before into MicroBlog. Bringing it to the atmosphere I’d like it to be #atgeo tagged. So what you get would be photos on a map.
We don’t build The Skypoints Project to map what’s happening on bluesky
We build The Skypoints Project so the world understands the power of decentralized social network through the power of mapping on bluesky

I tagged you in the ATProto Social Discord in the SEA channel.
Hmmm. We are planning on building out ATProto conference profiles. Could be more generally used for community profiles, with "hometown" listed for a little #ATGeo flair.

Shameless plug check out @skypoints.org for pinning locations to real world events based on Bluesky posts! #atgeo #bluesky
We are going to lay out our plans for the rest of Q4 and all of 2026 as Bluesky continues to grow and expand within the next couple of weeks
and reopen the app for beta!

The best mapping software will realize the importance of distributed social networks and how it can amplify the future of mapping the world!

We've hit the same problem in the #ATGeo group when it comes to location data. There are multiple (open) sources to pull data from and consensus was that it doesn't make sense to replicate off-protocol data collections in #ATProto but to rather strive for an easily replicable way to fire up a ...
I spent some time with @chronotope.aramzs.xyz talking about bringing back “Foodspotting”
We have the pieces with #atgeo now. @schuyler.info is prepping an instance of the 4SQ venue database as one of the key pieces.
Here's an example of what a "place" object could look like in #ATProtocol. Thoughts?

We have to post about this in an expanded form, about what AT Community Fund is going to focus on.
We’ve received the first tranche of FoF donation so can directly fund some projects & infrastructure now.
And, paying for a beefy bare metal server in Canada for #atgeo projects.
Hey geo nerds! The discussion about adding location to the BlueSky app ecosystem (via ATProtocol community lexicons) is happening.
I know you have opinions! Come weigh in or miss out on all the fun!!

Please repost! #ATGeo #ATProtocol
Thanks @schuyler.info for writing up a README to put next to the current state of the @lexicon.community location lexicon.
I stuck it in a category on the forum for further discussion. #atgeo

Jacob and I leaving #dwebcampcascadia a day early by seaplane back to Vancouver.
It was a joyous time at camp. Lots more to recap and share.
Also: scheming about #atproto backed war driving for #meshtastic - a great #atgeo application.
We are going to update our roadmap for exciting things that we have set in stone!
Both for bluesky businesses and #ATGeo overall!

Got it. Btw, I'm also waiting anxiously for #AtGeo stuff to come along (we're working on a "audio neighborhood zeitgeist").
The Anchor project started at about the same time the #atgeo discussion on how to deal with places on this network started to gain some steam. This is both a blessing as we get to experiment with first drafts of the future of locations on this network, and a curse because we will be throwing away..
The Future of #ATGeo and mapping bluesky is near! 😉
Stay tuned for updates this month!

We are going to help transform #ATGEO in 2025!
Tons of progress released soon 🫡
The very first (Testflight) release of the @dropanchor.app iOS social checkins app is now waiting for review! Maybe also the first @bsky.app social checkins app? I'm not sure if i will even make a full production backend for this but i'm having fun experimenting with #atproto and #atgeo for sure.
