A bad look for @Arcadis_NA to share a lobbying firm w/ National Fuel—which is blocking the #NYHEAT Act and locking NY into using more gas—when Arcadis has a contract for flood mitigation and trying to keep this from happening in Lower Manhattan again. See the full @fminusing@twittlesis report on NY’s double agent lobbyists who work for climate and fossil fuel clients

Sculptor Lou Bernadette made this oil derrick from materials salvaged from OR's 2020 wildfires for our protest of @PDXArtMuseum employing #fossilfuel lobbyists. Check out the @fminusing lobbyist list and tell us where to put the derrick next!
Launch success! 🚀🛰️💫

The US National Wetlands Inventory is now available as a cloud-native #geospatial format (GeoParquet) on @source_coop 🔥. A big shoutout to @jedsundwall for making it so much easy for me to contribute the first dataset to https://t.co/pmLiTpQD6V🫰Check out the link below on how to access and visualize the data using #leafmap, #duckdb, and #lonboard. Enjoy large geospatial data analysis and visualization in the cloud without have to download data to your computer 😎

Great deep dive into the overture data. I think this dataset is going to keep getting better and better. I’ll be interested to see a follow up post from Mark in a year or two.
A new chapter of @womeningis for the Delaware Valley (the 10 counties around Philadelphia) is getting off the ground next week. The first event will be a networking reception on Tue, Nov 14, 5:30-7:30p https://t.co/LCU5he3FtC
I just released a new tool! A command-line interface (CLI) that takes an AOI (as GeoJSON) and downloads all the buildings from @OvertureMaps or Google Open Buildings datasets to your computer, in the format of your choice (gpkg, shp, etc) Get it at https://t.co/l7pkjNg6Wf...
Come on down, researchers! 🌳🌋🌊🪸
@NASA has extended our CSDA Agreement through 2024, granting approved researchers access to Planet’s deep archive of satellite data for scientific use and Earth science applications. https://t.co/NaLA6JNrmc
