The Next Project: OpenOrienteering Mapper (2012)
OpenOrienteering Mapper[0,1] is an orienteering mapmaking program which provides a free alternative to the existing proprietary solution (aka OCAD, which was de-facto standard mapping software for IOF Orienteering Sport since 1990s[3]). Its main advantages compared to it are:
- Open Source: The program is completely free, every programmer can improve it.
- Cross-platform: The program works on Android, Windows, macOS and Linux.
OpenOrienteering project celebrated its 10th Anniversary since initiated by Thomas 'puzzlepaint on September 25, 2011.
On January 1, 2012 OpenOrienteering Mapper app development was announced.
Actually OpenOrienteering Mapper (Mapper for short) is on the way to 1.0 release.[2]

starlinkstatus.com now tracks active starlink cells
I don't think Starlink uses H3. H3 uses cells of specific sizes while Starlink needs cells that match its beam size. There are many ways to cover a sphere with hexagons. There is a library dggridR that allows you to construct a custom grid with spacing and other parameters. It's on my to do list to play with it.
