🌐 No, Greenland and Africa are not similar in size.

🌐 What's in a pixel?
Ever wonder how to accurately calculate the area of patches/pixels on the Earth's surface? Here is an exploration into the math and code...

The @GeoParquet 1.1 revision is out, adding support for spatial partitioning and native GeoArrow geometries

Both have potential to massively speed up working with very large geospatial datasets. Next step is ensuring the ecosystem works with this version

7/ I am reminded that more than any other academic/career accolade, I want to be known as being brave in such a critical turning point of our time on Earth. I hope these hard conversations allow us to move beyond cartesian ways of thinking and foster the collective action we need

[Dr. Brianna R. Pagán @Brianna_R_Pagan]

1/ Yesterday I gave a keynote at @N51Conference making the case on why EO data should be considered a common good and made free/accessible to all. As all common goods before it - colonialism and capitalism, both the root causes of climate change, are entrenched in the industry.

@bp22 @Brianna_R_Pagan "missionary/colonial talk" seems to be a pretty apt descriptor for language that includes religious phrasing ("to the promised land") and evokes images of forced behavior with the threat of violence ("Even if we have to drag them kicking and screaming")

[Pete Gadomski @petegadomski]

.@Brianna_R_Pagan brought the 🔥🔥🔥 to open @N51Conference and i am here for it

one of my takeaways: if you're in geospatial/earth observation, you MUST help ... enabling others, resisting exploitative structures, and working in the open (and so much more)

@pazjusticiavida Congratulations Beth! Well deserved!

@mouthofmorrison "every phenomenology?"

@Brianna_R_Pagan Full frankness, please.

I am happy to launch my course "Google #EarthEngine for Water Resources Management" covering real-world applications of #GEE. For the first time - we are also releasing videos along with code for all the modules - completely free. Get started at https://t.co/8YrpqHMA7m (1/n)

@NASAEarthData https://t.co/snRITdkg6c is currently unreachable (cannot be resolved). Any ETA for fixing this?

Looking forward to provide one of the keynotes for @N51Conference this year! Will be sharing my thoughts around the intersection of geospatial tech, climate/social justice issues, the roles of private & open-source efforts, degrowth & climate solutions based in interdependence

[Jed Sundwall @jedsundwall]

Perhaps @OpenAI's greatest legacy will be how it got everyone to study up on the most important issue in technology today: governance.

@kylebarron2 This reminds me of a country to country visualization @briantimoney created 15+ years ago. But with way more pairings... 😃
