  16. @jsonsingh Don’t limit yourself to the above mentioned ones of our are interested in - learn about actual DGGS and gridding concepts and not a handful of fancy technologies, look at OGC API DGGS, look at HEALPIX, DGGAL, GeoPlegma, DGGRID, ISO DGGS definitions

  17. I am looking to learn more about #DGGS and use cases surrounding to it. If you think your #geospatial data could some #h3, #a5 or #s2 sprinkle on top, please reach out.

  21. Justus made a great intro on using #DGGS through #xarray #xdggs at the #Pangeo showcase talk. Xdggs is now in a stage where you can use it fairly robustly with #HEALPIX and #H3. Other integrations like for #DGGRID are developed as separate plugins.

  32. Checking in from the @opengeospatial member meeting in Goyang, South Korea. Here for . Side info is a principal member now and Bentley has acquired Cesium 3d globe software

  33. Dggrid | Anaconda.org You can now install on Apple Silicon/ osx-arm64 architecture. I also managed to update to the stable 8.1 version. DGGRID version 8.3 with exciting news features and indexing systems will land soon too anaconda.org/conda-forge/dggrid
