It’s never been easier to entirely host your own mapping infrastructure, thanks to OpenStreetMap, Overture, MBTiles, PMTiles, Maplibre and a whole ecosystem of other fine open source projects.</p> <p>I like Protomaps creator Brandon Liu’s description of this: “post-scarcity web mapping”. <p>Tags: <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/geospatial">geospatial</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/maps">maps</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/chris-amico">chris-amico</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/overture">overture</a></p>

<p><strong><a href="https://github.com/eyeseast/geocode-sqlite">geocode-sqlite</a></strong></p> Neat command-line Python utility by Chris Amico: point it at a SQLite database file and it will add latitude and longitude columns and populate them by geocoding one or more of the other fields, using your choice from four currently supported geocoders. <p>Tags: <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/geocoding">geocoding</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/sqlite">sqlite</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/chris-amico">chris-amico</a></p>
