@Billfgreer @SeanGorman @pixel8earth @Snapchat Someone once said “laser focus” but that was bullshit

[Chris Helm @cwhelm]

@andreitr @SeanGorman @pixel8earth @Snapchat Thanks! It’s so much fun working on this stuff

[SeanGorman @SeanGorman]

Excited to share that the @pixel8earth is joining @Snapchat to help build the world in 3D for Maps and AR. Really appreciate all the support from many Twitter friends helping us along the way. Couldn't be more thrilled to join the fabulous team at Snap. https://t.co/w4HktUQPA3

Snap has acquired Pixel8earth, a 3D mapping developer, for $7.6M https://t.co/aHcEDOR8LY by @ingridlunden

It has been exciting getting the first group of @pixel8earth ambassador's on the platform. We've really enjoyed being able to virtually travel to new places via 3D models. Wanted to share a particularly cool model of the Roman Colosseum https://t.co/7obSFTUPEM from Federico.

New blog post on adding an aerial photo pipeline to @pixel8earth for drone, airplane or satellite imagery. We'll need to support all the cameras to create an open 3D map of the world. #DigitalTwins #AugmentedReality https://t.co/St8AZhuywM

@SeanGorman crucial skill

@crosbycj @jm_le_roux @pixel8earth Yes indeed. Thanks.

[Chris Helm @cwhelm]

Happy to have carved out some time to help push support for #pointclouds in #STAC forward during the #stacsprint6. @pixel8earth added a pointcloud extension to pystac and made a catalog of USGS 3DEP Lidar ept datasets: https://3dep-stac.s3-us-west-

@jm_le_roux @pixel8earth Ahh yes. I can fix

@SeanGorman @FreshyMap i miss frehymap everyday

@iandees @pixel8earth Not yet. Some of our customers were given access to the platform, but there are still some things we need to solve.

[Chris Helm @cwhelm]

Can't wait to start opening up the @pixel8earth platform for others to use. Finding a lot of joy in creating pointclouds of my house and little mountain town.

[Chris Helm @cwhelm]

Been raining a lot here in the Colorado Mountains. Enough to make our river spike and produce some great late season surf.

@gavinrehkemper @pixel8earth I'll share a pic of it next time I'm out collecting, but let's just say its not very "cool" looking and i get some funny looks. It's literally gopro mounted on a kayaking helmet, that's all.

[Chris Helm @cwhelm]

A couple shots of downtown Salida from a video i collected on my bike. Mapping the entire town via @pixel8earth.
