Vidit 0.5 is out !

Your work, on one page: a public portfolio per analyst, with a coverage map, insights, every event you documented, and each source archived so it outlives the post.

Open to read, no account. https://t.co/8zoEFCx0aQ

Hello everyone!
My interview with @ViditHQ is out today. I asked a few questions about my background and work method. For those curious about my profile, you can find it in this post.

36 geolocations, each written up with its proof, on one page:

Analyst portrait, every other Thursday: one analyst, their own words. If you geolocate and want yours, the door is open: DM us !

Analyst portrait, the second one.

@AquilaTrenta came to geolocation from archive photos: the Zaporizhzhia plant and Enerhodar today, the Italian contingent in Nasiriyah in 2004.

We asked a few questions. His answers, in his words. 🧵

What is missing in Vidit ?

"I'm curious to see how it evolves, and what a geolocation community could achieve. How much could we contribute? Maybe by helping each other, sharing ideas and resources."

[Vidit @ViditHQ]

Behind each geolocation is someone who spent hours matching rooflines, shadows and tree lines until one coordinate held, then showed their work so anyone could check it. Few people can do that. We built Vidit so that work stays on the record, under their name.

[Andrew Perpetua @AndrewPerpetua]

For every person actually geolocating footage there are like 50 accounts drawing arrows on a map. The arrows to geos ratio is out of control.

Didn't expect this much love for 0.3.1. Thanks to all testing Azimut and sending feedback 🙏

Now fixing & improving:
-FIRMS: sharper fires and a spent quota no longer marks your key invalid
-Copernicus: cloudy days no longer blank
-New village names layer
-Lighter, cleaner views

[MPGeoint @LoLManya]

Azimut 0.3.1 is out. Free, open source, runs on your machine.

New: Detect to spot change on Sentinel-2 and radar, custom analyzers, Imagery Comparison, KML and GeoConfirmed layers, a simpler Inspect, better geo proofs and to-do lists...

Details below..

Analyst portrait is a new ritual here: every other Thursday, one analyst, their own words. Next one in two weeks.

If you geolocate and want yours, the door is open: DM us !

Analyst portrait, the first one.

@LoLManya geolocates worldwide: Ukraine, Gaza, Venezuela. 470+ events on the Vidit map, and a tool of his own on the way.

We asked a few questions. His answers, in his words. 🧵

"The future looks promising: I'd love real interaction between geolocators, a place for geoloc requests and the ones we're stuck on, and all our work on a single platform."

32 geolocations written up, 440 more archived from his X history, on one page:
