Where are the wild fire?

Web Mercator Projection

served 80% of world population well

however, there are still people living in high latitude regions…such as Canadians…

Alternative?๏Deploy our own web mapping stacks. Open source

servers supports multiple projects, right?

๏OSM is free to use. Data is not a problem anymore! We can always download Planet.osm, load into a web mapping server and set up a cache, right?

My friend, it’s a lot of work in order to display the locations of wildfire…

A typical web mapping site for Arctic

Why so many applications still using Web Mercator Projections?

๏Web Mercator-based tools provide great User Experiences (Developer Experience).

๏Many easy-to-use API/SDKs

๏Many tiles available with minimum response time

๏Data available across pan-arctic regions

Arctic Web Map

Arctic Web Map

1. Arctic Web Map (Tiles)

2. PolarMap.js

Based on OSM, synced regularly (great for community engagement), six different projections

A Leaflet plugin for AWM tiles and polar-specific functions (e.g., rotation)
