where is the open commercial satellite data for #melissa #Jamaica ? I mean maybe my script is broken 🤷 - we can only hope that's it #gis #opendata #disasters #disasterresponse

Maxar did release before imagery but nothing new yet...

Is it possible to have high quality printed maps from mapbox/maplibre...of course it is! If you want to get inspired for your next open source project, come check out my talk on Wednesday at #FOSS4GNA on one city's ongoing transition to an open source GIS solution.

#duckdb and #deckgl have come a long way, amazing what can be done directly in the browser @developmentseed.org developmentseed.org/spatial-acce...

Cloud-native Geo may be the hot new thing but turns out a simple SQLite database with an r-tree spatial index (GPKG) works just fine even for 6 million features, on a cheap 4 core server. Plus it gives you search-as-you-type via fts5.

Flatgeobuf on-demand vector tiling performance on a $5 4-core server *almost* good enough. The FGB process uses http range requests with minimal latency as the data host is the web server not a cloud bucket. More/faster server cores (my m2 Mac) make it much more viable. #gis #gischat #webmaps #cng

quick test of github.com/uav4geo/GeoD... #gis #remotesensing #geospatial on #maxar post-disaster satellite imagery - geodeep raster.tif buildings - decent on standing buildings esp for such a simple install and process - but not useful for damage detection

with around 6000? images per day it's hard to pic just 4 - but here's 4 more sentinel-2 images from my image filter and analyzer - US West Coast, Caribbean, desert #gis #gischat #remotesensing #sentinel2 #earthobservation
