One of the hardest things I did over the past few months was to build a course to teach agentic coding techniques for geospatial problems. After endless hours of testing, refining, and writing, the full course is now launched - free and open to everyone➡️https://t.co/UrnRbYHchB

Spent the last week at Cloud-Native Geospatial Forum (CNG) Forum 2026 at Snowbird, Utah. Here’s my post where I have shared my thoughts on the conference along with links to resources ➡️ https://t.co/WtWX5qm3n4

New on our OpenCourseWare site: an archive of all the notes and resources shared in our instructor-led classes over the past 6 years - deduplicated, sorted, and organized by importance, and an automated pipeline to keep these updated https://t.co/YQRXMZ0UHM

Updated our Advanced QGIS course with a new module covering use of QGIS MCP Server and AI Agents to automate spatial analysis - includes a custom (CLAUDE/AGENTS.md) file that captures the best practices for using QGIS's powerful processing framework. https://t.co/vFQQv6fwli

@nilaynishant Thanks for testing and providing early feedback! That really helped improve the materials and make it more robust.

@postholer @GdalOrg This is awesome. Learnt a lot of clever little tricks from your write up. Got me thinking- maybe use the STACIT driver to query the STAC Catalog? https://t.co/Ps7mZlsfXt

I am happy to announce our new course "Cloud Native Remote Sensing with Python". It is a comprehensive guide for working with Earth Observation data using a completely open-source stack. More than a year in the making, we are glad to finally release it to the world.

We leverage AI-assisted coding heavily in the course - using Gemini in Colab coding exercises and the accompanying 'cloud-native-remote-sensing' skill for your agents to guide them on exactly how to leverage these fast-evolving packages.
