Some of the best open content out there on Python and applications of Machine Learning in geospatial. Highly suggest Michael's lectures. You'll learn a lot! 🛰
I share a lot of #DataAnalytics & #MachineLearning content. Removing barriers with accessible lectures, well-documented workflows, interactive demos in #Python, #RStats & #Excel, Python package, etc. See the complete inventory of resources with links @ git.io/JeAne.
Great resource for the tools available in transportation analysis! Congrats Robin!
Stoked to announce that the new #openaccess paper "Open source tools for geographic analysis in transport planning" has just been published 🎉
Paper: doi.org/10.1007/s10109-020-0…
Code: github.com/Robinlovelace/ope…
My first ever solo-authored paper!

TIL digital photography sensors can only see in black and white. The technique to product color images from them is clever and 🤯.
Great write-up on how digital photography works and the the details of ProRAW by @sandofsky.

Leave Room for Thoughts is an institution that encourages creative exploration.
In 2018 (LRFT /lurft/) ran a pilot program. Today it wants to say hello to the internet.
Took a while to put It together, but it’s now here for you to explore :)

love the design!
I made a GDAL T-Shirt for no good reason! The first ~20 shirts will cover costs to make it, and everything thereafter will be donated directly to @OSGeo.

Looks like someone's cron job to renew the Let's Encrypt cert failed.
Like if you've been there. I sure have.
Update: Spotify appears to be back online after the company renewed an important TLS certificate. It looks like the source of the issues was an expired certificate. Oops theverge.com/2020/8/19/21375…

The latest issue of Cartographic Perspectives is out from @NACIS! Featuring an article I worked on at university about bivariate mapping and some effective color techniques depending on your data's relationships and goals of the map.

Great mapping work from my team helping to show not only where COVID cases are active but the helping to plan for the downstream impacts and how to best prepare.
How could the disease spread across the US? BCG’s proprietary tool helps you explore the potential impact of the disease across the US down to a county level. on.bcg.com/2Rrvi4x

@John_M_Nelson Love the videos you've been making for ArcPro! Had an idea (if you want one) for another one. Making these "hedgehog maps" that show direction and intensity of change.

Holy moly, did @grammata quietly push some amazing things to Mapshaper?!
Looooook, you can clip things in the gui!
Great open resource for learning a wide variety of useful computer science and programming topics from @MIT_CSAIL missing.csail.mit.edu/
Really wish this map was in an Albers projection. Very interesting though.
An estimated 100 million people will migrate into and around the country seeking refuge from the various climate impacts. trib.al/7LF4jnR

The Italian place at Teele Sq just pulled down a series of printed maps with their delivery areas on it so they could find where an order is going and that just warmed my cartography heart so much.
.@MKBHD now that it’s getting cold out, have you tried the AirPods Pro with a beanie/hood on? The microphones on the outside were picking up the noise of the beanie rubbing on the headphones for me. 🙃

It seems every geography book starts with the John Snow cholera map example. Sure, it’s a good tale but are there no other greater triumphs of geography or mapmaking that can communicate the importance or impact of capturing space? Perhaps by someone other than a white guy?
Or Marie Tharp who helped to develop maps of the ocean floor via sonar data gathered from ships she was not allowed to go on. And consequently also was pivotal in confirming the theory of continental drift.
