@AdAyA61@RealAirPower1 The arms trade between Russia and Algeria is very old, meaning it has nothing to do with Morocco or Gibraltar. Secondly, it's foolish to suggest that a country would acquire military equipment without training its soldiers to use it.
@Balawi2Al@defensearab تاريخيًا كانت روسيا المورد العسكري الرئيسي للجزائر
توجد خبرة جزائرية طويلة في تشغيل وصيانة المنظومات الروسية
روسيا توفر بعض الأسلحة بشروط أقل تقييدًا سياسيًا مقارنة ببعض الدول الغربية
أغلب العتاد العسكري الجزائري الحالي روسي مما يجعل الاستمرار في نفس المنظومة أسهل لوجيستيا
Forest Loss. This map shows forest loss since 2000 in Africa. Defined as a stand-replacement disturbance, or a change from a forest to non-forest state.
I am very excited to release GeoLibre v1.0 🌍
GeoLibre is a free and open-source, lightweight, cloud-native GIS platform for visualizing, exploring, and analyzing geospatial data. One application that runs everywhere: in your web browser, as a native desktop app, on your phone, and inside a Jupyter notebook. No account, no server, no cost. Everything runs locally and your data stays private.
In this video, I walk through GeoLibre 1.0 step by step: how to install and run it, load vector and raster data, stream gigabyte-scale cloud-native datasets without downloading them, edit attributes and geometry, work with PMTiles, 3D tiles, LiDAR point clouds, and DuckDB, and share your projects as static links.
GeoLibre is built on MapLibre GL JS, React + TypeScript, Tauri (Rust), DuckDB, and https://t.co/Iu3zs18MyS.

@Khaltibissara@Trakel23 Outre le fait que tout ce que vous dites est scientifiquement faux… je ne comprends pas la contradiction des Marocains qui, d’une part, ont perdu des milliards de dollars pour occuper le Sahara occidental, et d’autre part, critiquent l’Algérie pour son vaste désert.
GeoLibre v0.9.0 is out.
GeoLibre is a lightweight, cloud-native GIS platform for visualizing, exploring, and analyzing geospatial data across desktop and web environments, with a responsive layout for mobile screens.
This release turns GeoLibre into a far more complete analysis environment. Highlights:
- New cloud data panels for Microsoft Planetary Computer and Google Earth Engine, plus an Overture Maps plugin and federal Web Services plugins, including NASA Earthdata, USGS National Map, EPA EnviroAtlas, FEMA NFHL
- Accessing 1000+ NASA Earthdata layers with a few simple clicks
- Time Slider plugin for animating time series raster and vector data
- SQL Workspace: run DuckDB Spatial SQL directly against loaded layers, local files, and remote URLs, with query history and one-click "add results to map"
- Conversion tools: Vector to GeoParquet, CSV to GeoParquet, and Raster to COG, running in the browser with DuckDB-WASM
- Controls menu with Measure, Bookmark, Minimap, View State, and Print
Everything is open source. Try it in your browser, install the desktop app, or self-host it.

@XcentY@Trakel23 tous les pays du monde, surtout ceux qui ont une grande superficie comme l’Australie, les États-Unis ou la Chine, présentent de fortes disparités dans la répartition de la population. Même la France, malgré sa superficie relativement limitée.
Algeria 🇩🇿 donates a 40-megawatt power plant to Chad 🇹🇩 in N'Djamena.
The first Algerian cargo aircraft has delivered equipment to begin construction.
The project is fully funded by Algeria as a gift, with Sonelgaz teams carrying out the work.
It is expected to improve electricity supply and provide more stable power.
Algeria also built a similar 40-megawatt plant in Niger 🇳🇪 as part of regional energy support.
Once upon a time, the Nile drew one extremely important green line through the desert, and Egypt looked at it and said yes, that is where the entire country will happen.

@todpalmer The Algerian national team is nicknamed the Desert Warriors, and the fennec fox is the team's symbol; it is a warrior in its harsh environment, having resisted difficult circumstances, clung to its land, and not become extinct.
"U.S.-Algeria relations are evolving beyond a primarily security-focused partnership toward deeper trade and investment engagement," writes CSIS expert Romina Bandura.

African gas geopolitics just hit a critical turning point. Algeria, Niger, and Nigeria have officially broken ground on the 4,128km Trans-Saharan Gas Pipeline (TSGP) to pump 30Bcm of gas to Europe.
But the project is a massive geopolitical gamble.

What is the largest source of electricity in each country?
Coal generates one-third of the world’s electricity, more than any other source.
But zoom into the country level, and the picture is much more varied. The map shows which source generated the most power in each country in 2024 or 2025 (the latest year available).
Thanks to large reserves, coal dominates across Asia. It’s the largest source in China, India, Indonesia, and Malaysia. These are huge power producers, which is why coal is so dominant at a global level.
Across most other regions, it’s mostly a mix of gas and hydropower. On islands and parts of North Africa, it’s oil.
Europe has the most diverse mix, with nuclear power dominating generation in countries such as France and Finland, and solar and wind overtaking fossil fuels as the largest sources in countries such as Spain and Germany.
Solar and wind are growing quickly in many countries; when these sources are combined as “variable renewables”, they become the largest source in six more countries: the Netherlands, Portugal, Greece, the United Kingdom, Belgium, and Pakistan.
