Thanks to @hughagraham, here's a tree canopy height viz of O‘ahu, Hawai‘i two ways—canopy height only (left), over shaded relief (right). Which do you prefer? Hi-res canopy height data from World Resources Institute and Meta. #rayshader adventures, an #rstats tale

As requested by @jarrin_v, here's a quick render of Lago Titicaca's bathymetry. It's more challenging to find lake bathymetry data compared to seas and oceans. Let me know if you have better data! #rayshader adventures, an #rstats tale

Bathymetry of the Persian Gulf. #rayshader adventures, an #rstats tale

Relative wealth estimates of Brazil, 2021. The relative wealth index measures how the wealth of a 2.4 square km micro-region compares to other regions in the same country. #rayshader adventures, an #rstats tale

Okay, I fixed the visualisation here. Here are roads and buildings of the _island_ of Ireland with insets of the more populated cities. I even corrected the name of one city. I'm nothing if not a people pleaser.

As requested by @beninquiring.bsky.social, here's Rocky Mountain National Park! #NationalParkWeek #rayshader adventures, an #rstats tale

Cities of Ireland. Originally rendered nine but it seems Bangor's data is incomplete so I left it out, then proceeded to also leave out Waterford and Drogheda to keep the six most-populated cities. Maybe I'll do the entire island next.

Trying something different. Contours of Bryce Canyon National Park. Which one do you prefer—left or right? Should I continue with the rest? #rayshader adventures, an #rstats tale
