It’s that time of year again! Prompts are out, my cartographic frenzy begins. Gearing up for year 5️⃣ of tackling the #30daymapchallenge…
Next month is November, which means the #30DayMapChallenge 2026 themes are here! More information on the official website: 30daymapchallenge.com/

If you're a designer like me who has built prototypes that involve maps + map interactions in @figma for MANY years, we've got good news: we launched a connector for @Mapbox that lets you build real, interactive mapping prototypes instantly using Figma Make. 🗺️
We're excited to announce the Mapbox connector for @figma. Instantiate a Mapbox map with a single prompt, using the agent in Figma Design or Make — styled to match your brand, powered by map interactions, location search, routing, and isochrones. In Figma Make, work with a fully interactive, live map from the first draft, no code required. Learn more in Figma's help center: help.figma.com/hc/en-us/arti… #BuiltWithMapbox #Figma

Madison! I first surveyed my own neighborhood back in summer 2024 to make “Every Door in Dudgeon-Monroe” featuring every front door color & now I’m crowdsourcing the next hood: Atwood. If you live in or nearby and want to give the survey app a spin visit: doors.latlong.shop

Ok I’d been planning to add these to the lineup for a while, but in the wake of the latest round of absurdist toponymic presidential news, here we go… Great Lakes Sweatshirts 👉 LATLONG.shop #bestcoast

Spent most of my recent time refining the hierarchy of bike routes, using line styling to denote relative comfort level. Definitely welcome any feedback/ideas from the #madison bike community! I'll continue refining this at city and county scale for print.

#30DayMapChallenge | Day 28 The blue planet | Land of Lakes & Rivers Ok this title may stir the pot with our neighbors in MN...they likely win most lakes, but here are some of our most notable waterbodies here in WI! Still working on this—any other superlative submissions? 💦

#30DayMapChallenge | Day 27 Micromapping | Tileset About as hyper-local a “map” I’ve ever made. A little axonometric diagram I made for myself to arrange tile pattern and calculate coverage for a bath renovation. First time tiling myself—extremely slow but very satisfying!

#30DayMapChallenge | Day 26 Map projections | Homegrown Projection Did you know we have a well-known projection made right here in Madison? Developed by Arthur H. Robinson at @UWMadisonGeog in 1963, it attempts to minimize distortion of area and shape over most of the map.

#30DayMapChallenge | Day 22 2 Colors | Road America When I first moved to WI, I noticed B&W license plates that had a strange, amorphous shape on them—turns out that it represented track at @roadamerica, America's Nat'l Park of Speed! Here's a B&W map stylization of the course🏁
