Map-of-GitHub is an inventive project that visually represents the global distribution of GitHub users and repositories on a map of the world, revealing geographic patterns and community concentrations across countries and cities. The project processes GitHub account metadata and GPS or location information (when available) to plot users’ locations and draw connections between communities, resulting in an exploratory visualization where density and network effects become instantly visible. Users can zoom in to explore hotspots like major metropolitan areas or zoom out to see global patterns of activity, making it both a data analytics tool and a piece of data art. ...

Java Marine API is an NMEA 0183 library for Java. For furher info and latest source code, see project's Github pages. https://github.com/ktuukkan/marine-api/

Exifr is a fast and very versatile JavaScript EXIF reading library that works everywhere, parses everything and handles just about anything you throw at it. It can handle any input: buffers, url, <img> tag and more; .jpg, .tif, and .heic files; and TIFF (EXIF, GPS, etc.), XMP, ICC, IPTC, JFIF segments. It skips parsing tags you don’t need, and reads only the first few bytes. There’s no need to read the whole file to see if there’s an EXIF file in it, or extract all the data when you just need a few tags. Instead of reading byte by byte from start to finish, Exifr jumps through the file structure from pointer to pointer, making it extremely fast and efficient!

A C library for parsing/normalizing street addresses around the world. Powered by statistical NLP and open geo data. libpostal is a C library for parsing/normalizing street addresses around the world using statistical NLP and open data. The goal of this project is to understand location-based strings in every language, everywhere. Addresses and the locations they represent are essential for any application dealing with maps (place search, transportation, on-demand/delivery services,...

libwlocate is a shared library that can be used for location-based services. It checks for WLAN-networks that are available near to a user and retrieves the current geographic position out of them. Thus no GPS is needed for positioning. This WLAN-based geolocation happens without using any of the commercial services that do the same but track the users position and data. libwlocate instead bases on the free OpenWLANMap project.

AR.js is a lightweight JavaScript library for delivering augmented reality experiences on the web. It supports image tracking, location-based AR, and marker-based interactions—all without requiring native applications or plugins. AR.js was among those great projects, with great technologies, often disruptive ones, that eventually were lacking from documentation and support. We tried to carry on the author's terrific work by maintaining this project, handling new versions, issues, pull...

Plus Codes are like street addresses for people or places that don’t have one. Instead of addresses with street names and numbers, Plus Codes are based on latitude and longitude and displayed as numbers and letters. With a Plus Code, people can receive deliveries, access emergency and social services, or just help other people find them. Plus Codes technology is open source and free to create and use. They are much shorter than traditional global coordinates, so they’re easy to share. Plus...

The aim of this project is to create a full utility suite for NMEA protocols (best known from GPS devices). First goal is a full implemenation of the NMEA 0183 protocol 3.0 (without proprietary extensions). The library provides parsers for NMEA sentences, gpsd-like network daemons and data generators for simulation and testing. This allows advanced sensor handling from cellphones/tablets/laptops with GPS up to vehicles/ships with NMEA sensors on board.
