I was quite happy while driving back home to see that we have a new episode of the Glad #podcast (https://gladpodcast.podbean.com/e/episode-35-my-friend-claude%e2%80%94a-one-year-checkup-with-prof-elizabeth-delmelle/)

A bit sad when I discover it was about "AI" and title "My friend Claude". Yes you have some layers of irony here, I do not know at which one we should stop.

I think it is a great episode to listen if you are curious about what is going on in some (what %?) academic mind related to it.

Hey, #askfedi ! And maybe #gischat ?

I know that EXIF data can hold coordinates. Is there something similar for a geographic extent? Like, if I had an old map, could the file itself tell me roughly what area it covers, not just the x/y of its center?

I probably just need a proper database with a column for the extent shape, don't I?

Hey #Mapstodon and #OSM people! A researcher from Berlin is looking into possible improvements for navigation software to help against the decline in spatial orientation skills by using visible landmarks for navigation.

A practical guide to map projection mistakes: Dominic Royé breaks down common #map #projection mistakes and how to fix them, with a clear taxonomy of equal-area, conformal, compromise, azimuthal, and equidistant projections. Examples use #RStats, but the lessons apply to any toolset.

The OpenGeoHub Summer School in Istanbul starts in just one week! The topic of this year’s edition is "Data Science for Earth Observation", covering three programming languages: Julia, R, and Python. The program includes many interesting lectures and hands-on workshops. We will also do plenty of sightseeing. See you there!

Can mental mapping work reduce the chance of Alzheimers?

The especially low rates Alzheimers in taxi drivers suggest it might.

Check out @giswqs and his GeoLibre package. He's just released an R package here https://r.geolibre.app/

This is "free and open-source, lightweight, cloud-native GIS platform for visualizing, exploring, and analyzing geospatial data" is on my winter bucket list.
