[Population Data Science at Swansea University @PopDataSci_SU]

Welcome to our newest member of the team Dr Behzad Valipour Shokouhi @ShValipour👋

Behzad has just completed his PhD in Environmental epidemiology @SwissTPH @UniBasel_en

🔬He is joining the team as our new Geographic Information System (GIS) Data Scientist for @MAGENTA_proj_uk

[Swiss TPH @SwissTPH]

🤧High levels of #Pollen trigger seasonal allergies & possibly respiratory & cardiovascular health events.

A new model by @SwissTPH estimates daily pollen exposure in #Switzerland, enabling future research.

@neutin_kwazi @evelynuuemaa @LGeoinformatics Congratulations!

[Behzad Valipour Sh. @ShValipour]

Early morning presentation in @sciCORE_Basel breakfast on how #artificialintelligence can be used to help people with #pollen #allergies, and how we can use #parallelprogramming for time-saving, and also decrease #carbonfootprint

[Behzad Valipour Sh. @ShValipour]

I started to implement my #deeplearning skills in #remotesensing datasets which are available in #kaggle. 🛰️ 💻
At first, I implemented image classification to classify patches with or without #windturbine

This is an important stepping stone for the Geo-Data Science community 🎉🎉🎉 Boosting geopandas with Dask makes analysis at planetary scale not only possible but on very mainstream hardware. Big spatial data for the masses!!!

[SummarizedML @summarizedml]

We introduce TorchGeo, a Python library for integrating geospatial data into the PyTorch deep learning PsyNetecosystem.

Guess where is this country? October was busy with generating 10m #sentinel2 data for #Estonia for both summer & spring using @sentinel_hub Batch API

🛰️💻😀💪

[Behzad Valipour Sh. @ShValipour]

As a practice used #sentinel2 imagery to train #xgboost model for #imageclassification and predict out_of_sample data. Overall accuracy was 90%

@sentinel_hub Great news 🎉

[Microsoft Research @MSFTResearch]

Today, we're thrilled to accept nominations and proposals for the Microsoft Research PhD Fellowship across Asia-Pacific, Canada and the United States, EMEA, and Latin America. Program details vary by region. Review your region's tab for info and key dates: https://t.co/UKZ5aSEEhv

[gdaltips @gdaltips]

Difference between COG and GeoTIFF basically (but not only) is, that COG uses internal index.

To speedup work (e.g. in @QGIS) with raster data, use gdaladdo script to create overviews.

GeoTIFF will store overviews internally.
