And there's an interactive map with over 1 billion longest lines, covering the whole world at https://map.alltheviews.world Just click on any point and it'll load its longest line of sight.
Some of you may remember Tom's post[1] from a few months ago about how to efficiently pack visibility tiles for computing the entire planet. Well now it's done. The compute run itself took 100s of AMD Turin cores, 100s of GBs of RAM, a few TBs of disk and 2 days of constant runtime on multiple machines.
If you are interested in the technical details, Ryan and I have written extensively about the algorithm and pipeline that got us here:

This was a labor of love and we hope it inspires you both technically and naturally, to get you out seeing some of these vast views for yourselves!
