  3. Voici le résultat d'une poignée d'heures de travail. À l'origine, je voulais juste voir comment marchait Leaflet.

    Celles et ceux qui me connaissent bien savent à qu'elle point la gestion de crise, l'opensource, les associations agréées de sécurité civile, sont des sujets que j'affectionne,.

    Voici donc le rendu actuel...

    À bientôt pour le partage des prochaines étapes

  4. Dites, les doués en informatique.

    Windows précisément.
    Quels sont les trackers sournois qu'on peut placer sur un tel système, et comment les trouver ?
    C'est pour une amie.

    #urgent #help #informatique #windows #geoloc

    PS : on a pas l'intention de baquer l'OS pour mettre linux. Il s'agit de détecter un crime et d'en apporter la preuve.
    Donc, pas besoin de ce genre de conseil.

    EDIT : J'ai reçu beaucoup de conseils à exploiter, merci beaucoup!

    My guess is East Antarctica. An old geology map.

    The 'A' is interesting.

  20. Steering Mobility Data to a Better #Privacy Regime

    Cars today collect a lot more data than they used to, often leaving drivers' privacy unprotected. Car insurance is mainly regulated at the state level—there’s no federal privacy law for car data—but unsurprisingly there is an active government and private market for vehicle data, including location data, which is difficult if not impossible to deidentify

    Here's an interesting #GeoLoc problem.

    Based upon my knowledge of the terrain, I am going say this U-2 pic was taken over western Missouri, east of KC. And the plane was heading esst. If this is correct, it was probably near noon CST.

    tt was a totally clear day over Missouri on 2023-02-03 when I could see it from NE of Washington, Missouri. Albeit, not this clearly.

    Any thoughts?

  26. New Mobile Phone Service Shows We Can Have Both #Privacy and Nice Things

    Location data is so sensitive that the Supreme Court agreed with the #ACLU that law enforcement should not be able to obtain it from the carriers without a #warrant.

    The service has some limitations. It covers data only, not voice calls.

    this is the place:
    46.5941, 32.5992
    #geoloc
    it can only reached by boat, so I highly doubt it was an ammo depot. more like a hiding place for a russian recon / drone operating team which UAF tried to eliminate. These wooden huts don't provide any shelter from artillery so I guess they achieved their goal.

  30. Hello :mastodon:

    🇫🇷 Est-ce que vous savez s'il est possible (et si oui comment), d'avoir une page web responsive qui permette de prendre une photo dont on veut s'assurer qu'elle soit géolocalisée ?
    Est-ce que #framaforms sait faire ça ? @Framasoft

    #html #photo #géolocalisation

    🇬🇧 Do you know whether it's possible, in a responsive web page, to allow taking a picture and enforce its geolocation ?

    Thanks 🙏 :boost_requested:
