Figuring out what you can build on a lot is a headache — so I built a free tool that tells you instantly (Metro Vancouver)

For some context, I work in architecture. I found that many clients when buying property are not really sure what they can build until they've already bought the property. Keeping up with Zoning Bylaws and Bill 44 / SSMUH changes are a huge pain for many.

So I built ZoneScout ( https://zonescout.ca/ )- search any address and know instantly know how many units your build, your max buildable area, max height and more all using real municipal and provincial data. Of course, the numbers are never 100% until you get full approval from the city, but it points you in the right direction.

It's currently only available for Metro Vancouver area and completely free to use. Genuine feedback from people who deal with this would be greatly appreciated!

The outdoors is beautiful, but even more beautiful with animals in it - swipe for Icelandic Horses

As a photographer I'm a huge planner for trips, trying to get the best lighting conditions and wildlife sightings so I've been trying to make that process less painful for myself

I've created an app that allows users to scan for animals nearby. The animal locations are crowdsourced by other users. So now you can hunt for incredible landscapes and keep an eye out for wildlife in the area.

Give it a shot at https://www.thewildmap.org/

Do you guys think this would be useful?

Took these shots last month! - tons of planning went into getting the puffin shots but the snow was all luck!

Hey guys, I'm a huge planner for trips and wildlife sightings but as we all know you can't really plan for wildlife. BUT! I've been trying to make that process less painful for myself

I posted here a couple months ago about a map tool I built that visualizes eBird, iNaturalist and other sightings in real time and had pretty positive feedback from this community.

The goal is to create an app that is more user friendly, more fun, and packed with features that eBird lacks.

I've added stuff like detailed filters, rarity systems for animals, bucketlists, with goals in the future to have migration paths, wildlife trails and much more.

Just shipped the iOS app. App Store: https://apps.apple.com/ph/app/wildmap-tracker/id6765543369

Would love feedback from anyone, especially from any hardcore iNaturalist or eBird users on things they love and hate about those apps.

Thanks a ton!

Been working on a side project that pulls real-time wildlife sighting data from iNaturalist and eBird APIs, so you can check what animals other people are seeing near you.

The interesting technical challenge was aggregating and normalizing data across two very different API schemas into a consistent map layer — iNaturalist and eBird structure their observation data quite differently.

Curious if anyone here has tackled multi-source geo data aggregation and what your approach was.
