Northern Virginia pixels in the embedding space

Every point is one 10-metre pixel of Northern Virginia, placed by a 3-D map (UMAP) of the 64-number summary that the OlmoEarth v1.3 model gives each pixel from a year of satellite imagery, and coloured by what OpenStreetMap's volunteers say stands there. Drag or use the arrow keys to spin, the wheel or +/- to zoom; hover a point for the map's word and where it is on the ground; click a legend entry to hide a class.
