Check out our recent #MobiTwin article in Urbaria Summaries, where we explored #European #Erasmus student mobility flows to/from #Finland from 2014 until 2023. Covid-19 disrupted the flow network presenting potential brain gain opportunities for Finnish regions.

Last week we had a very good workshop in #Mikkeli with regional stakeholders across North and East Finland in the @mobi-twin-project.bsky.social
Our stakeholders had some very interesting ideas to solve challenges related to regional mobility and development in the #region.

Kriittiset digitaaliset palvelut olisi syytä rakentaa suomalaisten ja eurooppalaisten toimijoiden varaan. Tästä on nyt käynnissä kansalaisaloite, nimeä alle siis!

Nothing like trying to figure out the basics of #pixi in #python at a ferry terminal.
i miss when every ceo was just blasted on coke instead of llms
It is fun to be able to do some more #NLP things, and to tackle some surprisingly complex issues like extracting text blobs from academic articles with complex layouts and multi-column text fields.
At least they are complex for a geographer 😅
It's so great that almost every university is a cheerleader for AI, so we can also be complicit in wasting water that way.

Mikä on Helsingin sometetuin viheralue? Missä lenkkeillään, mistä otetaan lintukuvia? Missä käydään ympäri vuoden ja mitkä ovat kesäkohteita? Mm. näitä sivusimme yhteishankkeessamme massadatoista ja Helsingin viheralueiden käytöstä. Lisää tietoa blogistamme! blogs.helsinki.fi/digital-geog...
In September peak rail fares were scrapped for good.
The success is already clear to see.
Don’t forget the Segway!
AntiRender is a fun tool to add a bit more reality into the highly polished and overtly positive architectural renders we see everywhere.

Here, I tried it with a random architectural render image from Huttunen-Lipasti architects.

More reasons not to go, and to further increase European sovereignty over technology used in Europe.
www.bbc.com/news/article...
The Kremlin called Trump's new National Security Strategy a document that "corresponds in many ways to our vision." France's former ambassador called it a "far-right pamphlet." Both are right
The NSS dedicates four paragraphs to Europe's "civilizational erasure." One sentence on ending Russia's war
Current status:
Europe is at war but only Ukraine is doing the fighting.
Europe's biggest ally is not only backing down its commitments and leaving us behind, not it's turning against us.
The part of Europe that tries to rise to figth is vetoed by corrupt officials in Hungary, Belgium etc.
I came to try out a new local #Persian cafe in #Helsinki called #Äfra.
Good delicacies and superb coffee.

In bike-friendly Copenhagen, the Social Democrats' candidate for mayor tried to win over drivers by calling for more car parking.
In elections this week, she was trounced. For the first time in 122 years, a Social Democrat won't lead Copenhagen. The new mayor is a socialist from the Green Left.

Is it an economic power house? A digital pioneer? A green trailblazer? Or something else?

Joten jos/kun huomaatte puolen vuoden päästä, että tekoälyn lisääminen ei tuonutkaan odotettuja säästöjä tai tuottavuushyötyjä, kannattaa katsoa menopuolta
Laitoitteko aikaa, rahaa ja vaivaa käyttöönottoon?
Selvitittekö miten juuri tämä teknologia soveltuu tapaukseenne?

#30daymapchallenge 17: A new tool
Helsinki enjoyed a grand total of 12 minutes of sunshine in November (1.–13.11). No better time to remember that yes, the sun does still exists.
This map shows Helsinki's shadiest / sunniest places. New tool? #GRASSGIS solar modelling.

Nah, unfortunately not. The third one is still waiting for a decision, we get to know in December.
Ups and downs belong to #academia. Two funding applications out of three came back negative. Really frustrating.
I also applied for a new research position, and came up with a clever (IMO) research plan in a short time, so I am very happy with that.

#30DayMapChallenge Day 4 - My Data
The 2025 citybike season in Helsinki has come to an end last week. As an avid user of the bike sharing system, Robert Klein has plotted his more than 350 trips of this year's season on a map.
#bikesharing #cycling #mobility
Tram not team, obviously. Ugh, when are #Bluesky adding an "Edit" button for posts?
It is quite nice to have my favorite team connection back after a lengthy renovation, just in time for the winter season when cycling gets a bit more tricky (and unpleasant).
The #PublicTransit operator #HSL has people handing out commemorative candies to mark the occasion in #Helsinki.
