I spent a few minutes looking, but it seems like there's no examples of these maps on their site, except for a few small screenshots. I don't want to have to learn the tool and make a map to find out what I can make. Did I miss an examples page?

you are serving Django with Debug=True https://umap.openstreetmap.de/es/map/mapa-sin-12334#10/41.58...

Their main site's 404 pages are also GitLab 404 pages. I wonder if they're hosting that on GitLab Pages.

This seems like a very useful tool!

I would have liked to see more fleshed-out examples linked from the homepage, but digging around a bit on Hacker News found this example shared from 9 years ago (!):

Some of the images appear to be broken, but overall the map and its associated metadata is still intact. Very impressive, and cool to see!

probably more instances out there, you can also host your own

I thought it was about Uniform Manifold Approximation and Projection.

Yeah, I came here for the dimensionality reduction.

Looks like a very useful project. Sadly, I cannot tell if the tool creates static images or interactive widgets. The website really misses some examples.
