Development Seed is leveraging Mapnik and Cascadenik for gorgeous base tiles and powerful thematic visualizations at AfghanistanElectionData.org, launched yesterday for the election in Afganistan.
Check out the details on their latest work via Eric's post and also a nice post at techpresident.com.
AJ and Tom, the cartographer and programmer duo behind these awesome maps are going to be attending the upcoming Mapnik Code Sprint, dubbed "Cartographers and Committers". The idea is to bring together Mapnik core developers with leading cartographers to think through future designs and advanced cartography.
Looking forward to next week!
