Share Facebook Twitter LinkedIn Pinterest Bluesky Threads [OC] Visualizing France: A typographic map generated from the coordinates of 1,156 communes. Posted by paveloush
paveloush on August 21, 2025 8:15 pm Hello everyone! This is a little visualization I created. **Data Source:** The geographic coordinates and names of the communes are from OpenStreetMap (OSM). **Tool:** I wrote a custom Python script to process the data and generate the visualization. Each commune name is plotted at its geographic spot. Happy to answer any questions about the process!
