Happy 26th birthday to GDAL ! From the first commit on 1998-10-17 from a small rural town outside of Ottawa Canada, to almost every geospatial software installation on the planet (and satellites and other planets!) in 26 years. The ultimate example of sharing & community. #foss4g

Hey, team, I was asked to attend the @opengeospatial event in Montreal this week, and take part in the debate. Here is a transcript of my opening statement. Standard Urgency, by @geo_will open.substack.com/pub/strate…

Dropped into Montreal for the @opengeospatial’s Canada forum. Excited to talk about @SparkgeoUK’s @NCEOscience EO data hub project on physical asset risk, and take part in the debate! If you are here too, hit me up.

In Ottawa this week, and ain’t seen @JustinTrudeau even once! ;)
Would love to talk #geospatial #technology, northern border monitoring and government procurement for small business ;)

New blog post up! See cloudnativegeo.org/blog/2024…
This one is a deep dive for a narrower audience, exploring many of the ideas we're experimenting with in fiboa (github.org/fiboa) - adapting the core + extensions with JSON Schema concept from STAC to general vector data.

I'm very pleased to share the full details on 'fiboa' - a data schema and ecosystem to improve the interoperability of agricultural field boundaries and related data. It's my favorite project to work on lately. Start with our intro post:

#TutorialTuesday (with video!)
Convert any tabular/columnar data (eg Shapefiles, GeoPackages) to #fiboa-ready GeoParquet file with @matthmohr! Build a custom converter using the fiboa CLI's pre-made template & run it anytime

We are very happy to support development. An exciting climate project with a great team makeup!
