GIS Analyst Toolkit: ArcGIS Pro Create File Geodatabase

Shapefiles are so 1920s😁 Today many professionals work with File Geodatabases (.gdb) or Server Geodatabases(MSSQL / PostgreSQL / etc...).

In ArcGIS Pro, we just simply right click Databases in the Catalog panel and then click New File Geodatabase and then name the database and pick a spot you want to save the new Geodatabase.

Afterwards, we have a File Geodatabase that helps organize our data and allows us to accomplish more than what those old shapefiles can .

Keep GISing!!!!

This is sick! I built the entire city of Gurgaon in 3D using GPT-6 Astra

I saw everyone building all sorts of cool demos with Astra, so I decided to give it a shot and needless to say,

I was not dissapointed

I got physical simulation working with motion-bricks.cpp and kimodo.cpp using GEAR-SONIC and Mujoco's C API. So motion-bricks.cpp can drive a physically simulated character.

Half way through you can see that the physically simulated skeleton falls while trying to follow an animation from Kimodo, but it's possible to get it back on its feet again.

I dunno if this is good for games, but it naturally deals with things like foot slippage. Also I would imagine that it's possible to have a physically simulated character that can't fall over and moves at a steady speed by clamping the movements.

Possibly I should release gear-sonic.cpp independently of motion-bricks, but they go together very well.

You know I had to do it!!

gpt-6-astra (High), one prompt, Terreiro do Paço in Lisbon (Blender, not Three.js!)

This one hits home personally

5 years ago, in college, I had a whole course in Computer Graphics. For the final project, every group had to recreate Praça do Comércio / Terreiro do Paço in Blender (our project delivery is in the comments).

I wanted to see how Astra would perform. For one-shot, it's pretty damn good.

Astra is a beast in Spatial 3d, and Blender is not like Three.js! It's significantly more complex, with a broader range of modeling, materials, lighting, etc.

Generational leap (and I will run a few more prompts here)

GOOGLE MAPS SHOWS YOU STREETS. THIS WEBSITE SHOWS YOU THE MOVIE SCENES FILMED ON THEM.

it's called Movie Scene Map → https://t.co/j5BjdTJcbX

15,716 real filming locations. 166 countries. one map.

click any pin. see what was filmed there.
search any movie. see every place it was shot.

Game of Thrones castles in Croatia.
Breaking Bad streets in Albuquerque.
Lord of the Rings hills in New Zealand.
the well from The Dark Knight Rises at Mehrangarh Fort in Jodhpur.
the Woman in Red fountain from The Matrix in Sydney.

the best part is how fast your brain starts using it wrong.

you open it to search one movie.
then you search your city.
then your hometown.
then the place you went on vacation.

built by one anonymous guy who goes by Flightmussy.

just a website that lets a normal person see where their favorite movies were actually made.

open tab.
search your city.
see what movies got filmed near you.

I managed to stitch together an animation from kimodo.cpp with motion-bricks.cpp dynamic animations. Of course with Astra, it's Astra weekend after all.

Doing this revealed a bug in how the encoder handled rotations of the toes and finger joints that wasn't reachable until we tried conditioning on an animation not produced by motion-bricks.cpp itself.

Workouts monitoring using @ultralytics YOLO26 pose 🏃‍♂️‍➡️

Imagine tracking your workouts using YOLO26, whether it's leg press, bench press, or leg extension, with just 2 lines of code!

I've shared the command for running it, making it easy to track your workouts even on a CPU-based system. You don’t always need a high-end GPU; exporting the model to TorchScript or ONNX can boost performance on CPU devices.

Hi Friends, for my first project created with GPT-6 Astra, I built the entire city of Seoul in 3D—a small revolution in digital geography! 😄 This interactive 3D miniature covers all of Seoul and its surrounding areas, and you can explore it yourself. It includes:

• All 25 districts of Seoul and approximately 267,000 simplified building models
• Rotate, zoom, and pan controls, plus an automated fly-through of 14 landmarks
• Day, sunset, and night modes
• Mobile touch support

The buildings were generated from real-world map data, with their shapes simplified for performance. Terrain and building heights are exaggerated by 4× to make the cityscape easier to see.

The entire process—from creating the project to completing deployment—took 43 minutes and 38 seconds minutes.

Please note that the buildings are simplified models based on locations and footprints recorded in OpenStreetMap. Where height data is unavailable, estimated heights derived from the source data are used. The landmark models are interpretive recreations designed to emphasize their distinctive features, rather than survey-grade or photorealistic reconstructions of every building.

The project is based on real road, waterway, elevation, and building data.

• Maps and buildings: OpenFreeMap / OpenMapTiles / © OpenStreetMap contributors · ODbL
Data snapshot: August 30, 2026
• Terrain: AWS Terrain Tiles / Mapzen · SRTM and other sources
• District boundaries: southkorea/seoul-maps · Statistics Korea’s 2013 boundaries
These may differ from Seoul’s current administrative boundaries.
• 3D rendering: Three.js
• Additional components: terrain, road, and building data, subject to their respective licenses

Image Georeferencing Using GeoLibre in the Browser

Learn how to georeference images, scanned maps, and historical maps directly in your web browser using GeoLibre, with no desktop GIS software required.

Video tutorial: https://t.co/ERllSQkzwj

In this tutorial, I demonstrate how to georeference a campus map by selecting ground control points, choosing a transformation method, evaluating residual errors, and aligning the image with a basemap. You'll also learn how to export the georeferenced result as a GeoTIFF, reload it into GeoLibre, compare it with the basemap, and share the finished map online.

GeoLibre is a free and open-source, cloud-native GIS platform that runs in the browser, on desktop and mobile devices, and in Jupyter notebooks.

🔥绝了！GPT-6 Astra在24分钟内用Three.js把整座杭州搬进网页，能逛能飞能切换昼夜！

刚上线的GPT-6 Astra，直接用Three.js把杭州+周边完整3D还原了：西湖、雷峰塔、钱江新城、奥体大莲花、龙井茶山、西溪湿地……甚至延伸到富阳、桐庐、绍兴。

拖动旋转、滚轮缩放、点击地标自动飞过去，还能切换白天/日落/夜景，开自动漫游随便逛。建筑细节、茶田垄沟、水面小船、桥上车辆都有，不是静态图，是真正可交互的微缩杭州！

杭州的朋友赶紧认认看，你能认出几个地方？👀

Astra简直是隐藏的城市规划大师啊！

Until recently this was possible in ArcGIS (proprietary software) and QGIS (free software) and you had to first learn how to use those tools.

Now GIS professionals can ask agents to make similar publication-ready maps with forge3d
