This tutorial will teach you how to record route data on a Garmin automotive GPS and extract it into a GPX file (which can then be used by mapping software).

My Airport History: Wilkes-Barre/Scranton (AVP)
A mountainous airport with the first backtaxi that I can remember.
Travel Heatmap
For my 2010s Decade in Travel post, I manually created a heatmap showing the parts of the United States and world where I’d spent the most time traveling. Since I’ve been playing around with QGIS recently, I went ahead and used it to create a proper heatmap of my travels.
Flight Directed Graphs
Using directed graphs to show my busiest routes and what airlines I used.

Time at Home During COVID-19

Terminal Silhouettes: Updated DTW
I’ve made a small update to Detroit’s airport – a few of the piers on the old North Terminal were removed, so I changed my silhouette to match.
