Hello! When I make maps (like the one below), I usually rely on free, open, and usable geospatial data.

The list below is just a quick one, and is by no means comprehensive. I’ll update it every now and then. While hovering your cursor over the table, hit the right keyboard arrow to see the download link.

Most of the datasets in the list are neither authoritative nor highly accurate, but they are usable.

I make good maps, so we can share them. And I’m becoming a scholar of making geographic information.
