New blog. Now I have a robust way of loading my Garmin tracks and activities into #PostGIS - I connect kepler.gl to it to visualise the data in a Jupyter Lab widget. This is a simple guide.

Great idea! While not a paper, a terrific resource is the book Landsat's Enduring Legacy: Pioneering Global Land Observations from Space.
Bit of everything. History of remote sensing. System design. Orbits. Applications. Has it all, AND is #openaccess!

A breath of fresh data: Sentinel-4 innovates for clean air From its vantage point outside Earth's atmosphere, more than 36,000 km above Earth's surface, the Copernicus Sentinel-4 mission will detect major air pollutants over Europe in unprecedented detail. It will observe how they vary on an hourly basisโ€”a real breakthrough for air quality forecasting.
