minus-squarethemeatbridgelinkfedilink48•edit-25 months agoI don’t understand this graph. Does it mean directly North? All cities combined? Why isn’t there one city for every longitude? Edit, nevermind, I got it. It’s by latitude, the next biggest number as it travels south. The title is confusing, though.
minus-square@jol@discuss.tchncs.delinkfedilink31•5 months agoMaybe this clarifies for others: there’s no City south of Tokyo with a population bigger than Tokyo. Tokyo and Seoul are the only cities south of NY that have larger populations. And etc.

Excluding southern hémisphère I guess.
