FarOtherSide presentation materials

Source materials, tools, and assets used to build the FarOtherSide circumnavigation talk.

Contents

gpx_map_render/

A single-page browser tool that turns GPX files into animated map clips for the talk. Ships with the full FarOtherSide voyage (84 legs, ~43,700 nm) inlined as the default dataset, and can load arbitrary GPX files for use on other voyages or trips. Open gpx_map_render/render.html in Chrome to use.

Includes:

  • render.html — the renderer (one self-contained HTML file)
  • geojson/ — per-leg track data for the built-in FarOtherSide voyage
  • legs_index.json — parsed metadata for the 84 legs
  • parse_gpx.py — the script that originally produced the JSON/GeoJSON from the master GPX (archival; the renderer parses GPX in-browser now)

See gpx_map_render/README.md for full user documentation — features, sidebar reference, troubleshooting, etc.

northern australia cyclones animation/

An interactive browser tool that animates tropical cyclone tracks approaching the north Australian coast (Exmouth to Thursday Island) from 1980 to 2026. Renders on a live Mapbox satellite basemap; exports WebM video for Keynote. Storm data (247 tracks, IBTrACS v04r01) is embedded in the HTML — open cyclone_render.html in Chrome with a Mapbox token and it runs standalone.

Also includes a Python script (generate_cyclone_video.py) for high-quality MP4 rendering via cartopy + ffmpeg.

See northern australia cyclones animation/README.md for full documentation.
