#geospatial — Public Fediverse posts

Live and recent posts from across the Fediverse tagged #geospatial, aggregated by home.social.

  1. AI vs. FME / geospatial tools?: Safe Software and the #FME community discusses whether #AI #agents are replacing tools like #FME for geospatial #ETL work. The community thread and blog post are worth reading for what they imply about the future of #low-code geospatial tools more...

  3. Aerial view of the team taking coordinates on the ground as clouds roll in. A #lake now fills the indent where the glacier used to be. The team uses #Trimble #geospatial technology to log the location coordinates of the targets; the tool gives high precision positions within a few centimetres. Since the #glacier is beyond the standard trekking routes, they are joined by a local military guard, which lends a hand with the survey process.

  4. 🚨 London “Geo” Meetup #3 is looking for speakers!

    I am sad to miss the Geomob last week, but we have the LGM next month so come along.

    With the spirit of LGM moving around London, next month we are in King’s College London on 10 June from 6:00 PM at Bush House, Aldwych.

    If you’ve got an idea, project, or story to share with the geo community, I’d love to hear from you. Email: [email protected]
