For the past 2 weeks or so, I have been fiddling with #OpenLayers for #PixelMap, and finally got to a version where it works sufficiently enough. I will be tinkering more on it in the future, but I am happy with the results so far.

I'm currently trying to integrate #OpenLayers with #PixelMap, and while I spent several hours getting it to work, it finally clicked and I now have control over what I'm doing. It's weird with their documentation, being either false or outdated, I had to look for third party tutorials and forums to make it behave as I would like, and still it was hard.

Seeking recommendations for a #WebMapping tutorial / course?

Slightly at sea on where to start.

- My current JS skill level is _extreme novice_.
- I don't have access to ArcGIS.
- Comfortable with #QGIS [*] and the #python #geospatial ecosystem (#geopandas #xarray #rasterio and plotting with #matplotlib)

Suggestions welcome. TIA.

* I have looked at the qgis2web plugin, but having some issues associated with my aged laptop (2012 mbp running Ubuntu) and a 'Wayland session'.

Kennt sich jemand mit OpenLayers aus? Ich versuche Wetterdaten auf einer Karte darzustellen. Ich kann die Daten anzeigen, aber die sind West-Ost gespreizt. Irgendwas mache ich mit den Projektionen falsch (siehe im PDF unten),
- Eckkoordinaten sind wohl WGS84
- die Messdaten wurden von da per diesem proj-String auf die Ebene projiziert (???)
- für OpenLayers muss entweder mein view diese proj verwenden, oder es muss umgemapt werden ???
