ggplot2qgis, an R package to convert a ggplot2 map into a QGIS map, now supports raster🎉 So, you can put the R logo on QGIS for no reason! #rstats #qgis repo: github.com/yutannihilat...

{ggplot2qgis} is an R package to convert ggplot2 into QGIS. But, why QGIS? You might not know this yet, but being QGIS-ready means we can publish the map to the web!🌎 That's where Kumoy comes in — our flagship service designed to maximize the potential of QGIS. #rstats app.kumoy.io/public/map/a...

If you are too familiar with ggplot2, you might wonder how we can reproduce the same geospatial visualization on QGIS. {ggplot2qgis} is an R package for this! #rstats #qgis github.com/yutannihilat...

The first figure is exactly what I've been wanting in ggrepel for a decade... Awesome!!! #rstats

While this is not the end of the world, I think I'll never submit a Rust-powered R package to CRAN again. I wish good luck to you, the survivors...🖖 #rstats

Got this death sentence from CRAN. While it's totally my fault not to notice this Rust requirement for years, maybe it's time to leave CRAN? 1.77.2 is too old... #rstats > The CRAN policy requires you to have tested prior to submission with a version at least 2 years old, so no later than 1.77.2.

Very sorry to hear this. RIP

string2path, an R package to convert text to the outlines, now supports variable fonts (not on CRAN yet) #rstats

Writing a GeoPackage(GPKG) library from scratch taught me a lot about some friction between the spec and the modern geospatial ecosystem🦀🌍 GPKG is SQLite. We take that for granted, but have you ever stopped to think about the advantages and disadvantages? Here’s my take. dev.to/yutannihilat...

How it feels to write a GPKG library in 2026 (in Rust!)There are a lot of existing libraries to deal with GeoPackage (GPKG). GDAL is the undisputed champion...dev.to

I implemented a simple Rust crate to read/write a Gpkg file. This crate is built on top of rusqlite, so you can also use this on web browsers! crates.io/crates/rusql... One caveat about Wasm is that, while rusqlite should support OPFS (sahpool-opfs), I'm yet to find how to use it...

Wow, DuckDB v1.5 is going to be huge for geospatial people. It seems it got the ability to handle CRS like SedonaDB does. I didn't expect this would happen this early! github.com/duckdb/duckd... (Also, did you notice this pull request is on the DuckDB's main repo instead of duckdb/duckdb-spatial?)

Are you interested in Japan's historical map, or creating historical maps with modern web technologies general? 🗺️ If so, you should find this writeup by my colleague interesting!

The Global FOSS4G conference in Auckland is just a few weeks away! I'm sorry I forgot to share this here, but I'm excited to be speaking about the state of GeoArrow **on the web**. 21th November, 11:00–11:25 talks.osgeo.org/foss4g-2025/...

Thanks to @paleolimbot.bsky.social's great work, the sedonadb R package is now also available to Windows via R-universe 🎉 I'm excited particularly because I believe sedonadb is the easiest tool for R users to access GeoParquet data. #rstats apache.r-universe.dev/sedonadb
