As a geologist, I love learning about the rocks and landscapes around me when I travel. On a trip from Monterrey to Yosemite I even had my wife reading off a geologic map app but the results weren't great despite her best (and most appreciated) efforts. That trip inspired me to build Backseat Geologist. The app uses your location and the amazing Macrostrat geology API to find the details of the rocks below you. That data is then processed in various ways and an educational description is created by an LLM, which is then read aloud by a text to speech service. And there you have it, the basics on how you can get real time updates on the geology below you as you travel.
