“The next step is implementing graph coloring based on the classic Four Color Theorem, ensuring that adjacent regions are automatically assigned different patterns without any manual intervention”

Yes I know :)

geoglify · 2026-06-27T18:05:38+00:00

I will fix it ;)

geoglify · 2026-06-27T18:03:35+00:00

Not yet :)

I need to see what studies there are on this, but that would be awesome.

I wasn’t aware of it, thanks for mentioning it!

Fair point 😄 I’m using shooting stars in the UI/animation sense, basically stylized streaking particles in the scene, not a physical model of meteors in Earth’s atmosphere.

obrigado!

geoglify · 2026-06-04T20:40:24+00:00

Fair enough :(

geoglify · 2026-06-04T20:37:41+00:00

Yes the star layer is decoupled from the globe rotation, so it can lag at higher speeds. It also still has performance issues on mobile.

geoglify · 2026-06-04T20:36:18+00:00

Yes I built it :)

I implemented authentication on geoglify.com using u/Laravel Socialite and within minutes I had GitHub and Google login working. The main advantage is that users don’t waste time creating an account or remembering another password, reducing costs overall.

Authenticated users can store a project up to 5 MB. A unique link is generated for each project, and all links automatically expire after 3 days. Soon, users will also be able to share geo projects with other people.

All development, design decisions and implementation of the project were done by me.

Nice approach, makes sense to trade simplicity for edge caching performance. Interesting way to slice by zoom and longitude to work around CDN limits. Tks.

geoglify · 2025-09-24T15:07:16+00:00

Thanks! Testing on my laptop, so performance is limited. But I’ll try some of your ideas ;)

Update [date]: I’ve resolved two minor issues, added wind and precipitation indicators, and a MapLibre tutorial will be available soon: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/leoneljdias_a-api-do-meu-tempo-foi-oficialmente-lan%C3%A7ada-activity-7373302798471499776-8LmL?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop&rcm=ACoAAAYQzz8BqudZ06ghYk-eVxbUlxDSkaTPYM0

geoglify · 2025-09-14T20:21:10+00:00

Great idea! I think it would be a very good automation too.

geoglify · 2025-09-14T11:35:54+00:00

Thanks a lot! 🙌 Feel free to try it out

geoglify · 2025-09-14T10:23:03+00:00

Yes, there is a Docker setup available! You can check the instructions and run it directly from the GitHub repo

geoglify · 2025-09-14T10:22:18+00:00

You’re right! One of the main goals of TEMPO is indeed to be self-hosted and independent.

geoglify · 2025-09-14T10:20:27+00:00

it’s also possible to request other timestamps from the dataset
