Get hands-on w/ Python Notebooks to apply key concepts like @stacspec.bsky.social & GeoTIFFs. We'll bridge the gap from theory to real-world EO analysis talks.osgeo.org/foss4g-2025/...

We’re heading to Auckland 🇳🇿 for @foss4g2025.bsky.social to talk Rust 🦀 + open geospatial. Catch our team showing how modern tools make geospatial faster and more interoperable. Find us for zines + join the GeoRust sprint. Get the deets: developmentseed.org/blog/2025-10... #foss4g #osgeo

Slides for my @foss4gna.bsky.social NA talk, "Cloud-Native Geospatial Metadata with stac-geoparquet" are at www.gadom.ski/presentation... I subtitled the talk "Practical STAC", because #stac-geoparquet was motivated by real-world problems found while managing large @stacspec.bsky.social systems

We recently completed the move of the #stac-geoparquet specification documents to a new repository in the @radiant.earth Github org: github.com/radiantearth... Check out the rendered HTML here: radiantearth.github.io/stac-geoparq...
