    Check out these 3D maps of lakes and human density around them.

    PS I now have a version of the global density map with the Great Lakes cut out, plus other large water bodies e.g. Lake Victoria, Lake Baikal - was a bit fiddly to process but I now have the global file compressed to under 2.5MB "where there is water, there is life", as they say

    In the very experimental libproj 📦 you can use features of PROJ 7.1.0 like downloading gridshift files on the fly! Also, configure an arbitrary number of data directories and point to an updated or alternative database using `libproj_configure()`!

    So many mixed feelings on the last day of my maternity leave. Balancing a soft launch of my research career with full time parenting duties has been challenging, especially during a pandemic, but I’ll miss spending lazy afternoons with my little guy.
