Gizmodo: Parler Users Breached Deep Inside U.S. Capitol Building, GPS Data Shows - "At least several users of the far-right social network Parler appear to be among the horde of rioters that managed to penetrate deep inside the U.S. Capitol building and into areas normally restricted to the public, according to GPS metadata linked to videos posted to the platform the day of the insurrection in Washington."

The Guardian: How a mob of Trump supporters stormed the Capitol – visual guide - Writes Gretchen Peterson on Twitter: "A visual guide to what happened yesterday. The maps are simple and effective. Note they include an overview map, easy to read scale bar, a credit to openstreetmap, and the use of red to both highlight and underscore the seriousness of the matter." Via @PetersonGIS.
