The blurry line between art and science. Here for the open data, geospatial, product design, radical cartography, EO, cloud-native & open-source tech chatter, but I don’t mind motorbikes, cacti, geology, or anything Unreal engine either.

Zero chance I'll be able to make it, but hope a lot of the talks are shared afterwards! Sounds like an amazing event.

#orienteering is certainly the best sport on earth for #map and #cartography lovers: It's outdoor, in the nature, you visit 'uncharted' areas of your neighborhood and apply multicriteria route optimisation algorithms. Maybe the sport you need for 2025 ?!

Open Data
● Maxar's Open Data Program provides satellite imagery for major crises, offering pre- and post-event data to support humanitarian efforts. Imagery, released under Creative Commons BY-NC 4.0, helps organisations respond more effectively to natural disasters like floods, earthquakes, and wildfires.
● OpenStreetMap US presented the latest updates to the Public Domain Map (PDMap) project. It allows mappers across the United States to edit, contribute, and consume federal datasets via a collaborative user environment and modified versions of popular OpenStreetMap tools, thereby simultaneously improving government and OSM datasets.

Working on our regional-scale point coud vis capabilities at Koordinates. Several hundred GBs of data previewed. Scaling up to TBs soon. And of course with clip & ship downloads, format and CRS shift, API access, version control built it. #gischat

Stylish Landscapes GIS analyst Warren Davison of Ontario, Canada, created Draft Sketch, a very artistic ArcGIS Pro style for landscape design and site planning.

Those styles were based partly on this set by @timlinux.bsky.social plugins.qgis.org/styles/149/ and this set by Warren Davison www.esri.com/about/newsro... which I imported to #QGIS using the #SLYR plugin by @north-road.com

Great tool. Thanks for building it. We will use it to compare different styles of basemaps.linz.govt.nz vector tiles.
