Introducing: the AI Georeferencer 🗺️

Our new QGIS add-on generates control points for raster maps automatically, using AI.

Here's me georeferencing two maps in QGIS without ever manually adding a GCP:

@ch_gruetze MDPI ?

@hannokinkel @tamarahking @ekh_sci @ZoeMildon @geologySarah Thanks, yes not only was the PhD a great decision, Plymouth has been a lovely place to live (at least post-pandemic) and I found wonderful friends and colleagues @EarthSciPlymUni

[Manuel Diercks @GeneralShear]

@tamarahking @ekh_sci @ZoeMildon @geologySarah Thank you, Tamarah!

[Manuel Diercks @GeneralShear]

@wukaimi @ekh_sci @ZoeMildon @geologySarah Thanks, Kamil!

[Manuel Diercks @GeneralShear]

@ZoeMildon Huge thanks to all the friends and colleagues who helped me along the way, but foremost to my amazing team of supervisors! Could not have achieved this without your incredible support! Also many thanks to Tony Morris and Tim Craig for the challenging and thorough examination.

@ekh_sci @wukaimi @SophieJMann @donnyriow @BritGeoSurvey @NERC_COMET @ch_gruetze Thanks Ekbal, I might print that tweet and attach it to my job applications 😉
I have to add that having great supervisors has been very important and I've been very lucky both for my MSc and PhD.

@billy_andrews @EuroGeosciences An interesting topic for everyone working on active fault scarps, and very well presented today. Here's @billy_andrews in action. #EGU24

[Sam Mitchell @structuralsam]

Very happy to announce the publication of my first lead author paper 🎉
Proud to contribute to earthquake hazard research by investigating the rupture relationships between 2 across-strike faults using field observations! Huge thanks to everyone involved.

@JamsekPetra @AnaNov4k @JosipaMaslac Nice, which fault is it?

[Nature Portfolio @NaturePortfolio]

A Comment article in @NatRevEarthEnv discusses the current understanding of the seismic hazard and preconditioning factors that contributed to the recent devastating events in Türkiye and Syria.

@arapks Thanks for your interest. A publication is in preparation but still a few difficulties to solve. The figure shows vertical deformation, N-S is more challenging.

[Manuel Diercks @GeneralShear]

Can you detect tectonic N-S deformation using InSAR time series? Discuss with me at my poster on 'High-resolution N-S and vertical deformation in SW-Anatolia'. Session TS3.10 at #egu2023

[Manuel Diercks @GeneralShear]

@wukaimi Thanks for bringing back so many positive memories ... An excellent short course!
