Based on interviews with community organizers, this article offers analysis of how activists leverage data (and desire to further leverage data) to organize at the intersection of prisons and environmental injustice
On Friday, a massive chemical fire erupted at the Marathon Petroleum Refinery in Louisiana's "Cancer Alley". As our partners and clients @CCOStJohn & @risestjames have said, local communities deserve transparency & accountability. It's time to put people first.
Have you used components from Seeed Studio for environmental monitoring projects? Share your story and win $1000 to travel to @makerfaire in #Shenzhen. Would be exciting to have a Public Labber representing! Details: seeedstudio.com/blog/2023/06/0…

@marionleary @PublicLab runs great barnraisings, which are similar. One fave activity is people producing a simple one page newspaper each day by people just drawing/writing on one poster paper what they learned or humorous tidbits. Photo taken and copies printed to hand out.

Thank you again to @_malikktweets & @adoughdough for your hard work this season and for bringing this precious resource back online! Full docs at github.com/publiclab/Leaf…
In addition, since we made a huge effort to archive over 7800 old MapKnitter maps at the Wayback Machine, Malik & Segun made it possible to open and edit old maps. It’s not the fanciest, but here’s a list of all ~7800 maps from our community: publiclab.github.io/Leaflet.Distor…
But where are the images and saved maps stored? Images are kept in @internetarchive collections (which @PublicLab was already doing) & maps are saved in “mapknitter.json” save files, which can be downloaded, emailed, or stored online.
Another thing you can do with MK is to overlay historic maps onto web maps. Sanborn insurance maps can be lined up to see how they relate to today's streets. In my work @librarycongress, I’ve used this tool in my study of Providence, RI's Chinatown, which was destroyed in 1914.
One reason MapKnitter went offline was its high cost to operate. So MapKnitter Lite, @_malikktweets & @adoughdough's project, re-imagined MapKnitter as a serverless, static JavaScript app that runs for free, hosted on GitHub Pages.
MapKnitter's been used for so much over the yrs -- it’s good to remember that some MK maps have been used by Google to provide high res imagery for areas like Mestia. This incredible map, still visible on Google Maps, was created by residents of the city using a balloon, in 2011.
And as always, we couldn’t have gotten so far without our fantastic mentors, @CessWairimu254, @B_eautifulChaos, and @erhisoghenetega. 🔥♥️
MapKnitter has been used for >10y by thousands of people to make their own aerial maps (like a DIY Google Earth), esp of pollution -- like the BP oil disaster. @PublicLab community members take aerial photos from balloons, kites, & long poles, “knitting” them into high res maps.
In the most recently concluded @outreachy session, @_malikktweets & @adoughdough worked together to create a lightweight replacement for @PublicLab’s MapKnitter service, which went offline last year. You can now use it here: publiclab.github.io/Leaflet.Distor…
MapKnitter is BACK, thanks to this winter’s @outreachy fellows at @PublicLab! 👏🔥 Blog post: unterbahn.com/blog/#2023/4/1
Hi everyone, I have some hard news to share. Chemo didn’t work for me and I’m now in at-home hospice care. I’ve been spending a lot of time with family & friends and trying to relax. I miss seeing everyone so please reach out if you’d like to visit. Power to the people!
I wonder how many people in NYC will now make looking at the AQI a part of their outing. I feel a lot of people who have never heard of it are now hyper-aware of it. Maybe it'll come in helpful when dealing with climate change.

Exciting annoucment from my former employer @EPA @EPAMichaelRegan. A crux of #AirPollution mgmt is how we 'measure' its harm. I'm hopeful this $ will mobilise participatory methods to evolve who + what counts when regulating pollution #EnvironmentalJustice epa.gov/newsreleases/b…
