Last year also I shared this animated hexagonal map of Dutch land use. I've now expanded this to include several more European countries, so you can see what makes Dutch land use so special - or not.
If you want to help add more countries, I'd appreciate PRs on GitHub. The map rendering is already there, it only requires land use data which can be found in the SQLite database (at least for EU countries).
