A map of places I've checked in on Earth.

• I want to plot all the places I've been to on a map.
• I want a digital version of push pins on a physical map.
• I want to show people where I've been to.
• I want to see where I haven't been to.
• I want to try Mapbox GL JS.
• I like the cool maps from Gyroscope.
• I need an excuse to get a .earth TLD, inspired by Conquer Earth. (I already have .life)

1. Generate access token from Foursquare (requires your own CLIENT ID, etc; figure it out on your own).
2. Create .env file, with environment-specific variables on new lines:

ACCESS_TOKEN=XXX

• npm run checkins - Fetch all checks-ins from Foursquare. Raw checkins.json is not part of repo because of privacy. checkins[.min].geojson files have shortened coordinates for privacy.
• npm run countries - Download a copy of country maps from djaiss/mapsicon. Then generate all optimized SVG countries.
• npm start - Watch and transpile assets/app.raw.js, and start the server.

• Make this available for other people. Self-hosted or hosted?
• Date & time range filtering, for check-ins.

• Foursquare
• Swarm
• Gyroscope
• Dustin Curtis's Conquer Earth
• 4sqmap
• Where Do You Go
• Your diary (on Foursquare)
• Foursquare's old Time Machine (video)

Data powered by Foursquare. Map powered by Mapbox. Vector countries are from djaiss/mapsicon.
