Updated my most popular post ever, "GeoTIFF compression for Dummies", with extra JPEG compression and mention of the new Hotness, COG. https://t.co/Qvis7az3l9
@pwramsey I just realized (as you had pointed out in one of the comments) that with the latest versions of GDAL one can also use the COG format which embeds these tricks for you https://t.co/RLKVAye6vA
Hobu is hiring. The criteria are 1) Not an Asshole and 2) Can Google Stuff. We'll teach you the lidar and the geo and the open source stuff. Please use #2 to contact me to demonstrate #1 if you are interested.

Bespoke, non-standard, lacking in features, and frustrating in behavior, https://t.co/Hq91hfDhGq's build system has always been something that developers worked around. Thanks to https://t.co/082h8iybwz, @EvenRouault, @miurahr and @nyalldawson are adding CMake build support.
@Mapgears@guyaroy@LeQuotidien_Cyb Comme l'a très bien rapporté @guyaroy « Quand j’ai quitté la région, au milieu des années 1990, on me disait que je ne reviendrais pas dans la région, faute d’emploi. J’ai fini par revenir et créer des jobs de qualité. J’en suis très fier »
@pwramsey@postgis We didn't know that when we made these things that just needed to be made that they would be around forever (GDAL, PROJ, MapServer, GeoServer, GEOS, PostGIS).
#GDAL is critical to many of the steps in our image processing pipeline and we're thrilled to join as a sponsor in order to further their important work. Read our latest blog to learn how this collaboration is integral in growing the geospatial ecosystem:
