Geospatial workflows are growing fast in data science. This talk introduces GeoJupyter and collaborative geospatial computing.

Papers due Feb 6! Machine Learning for Remote Sensing at ICLR 2026 (in person in Rio de Janeiro). This workshop promotes trans-disciplinary research through diverse view-points to tackle pressing questions, such as climate change, social inequalities, biodiversity, and food security.
Just love this moment capturing the past (Anne Hale Miglarese & @hamedalemo.bsky.social) & present leadership (@jed.co) of Radiant Earth, all in one shot! Our legacy 😊
We welcome your contributions to our Thematic Session "Data-Centric Learning for Geospatial Data" at ISPRS 2026, Toronto 4-11 July, 2026: www.isprs2026toronto.com/thematic-ses...
❗️Submission deadline is November 3, 2025
🐙Organizers: Devis Tuia, Maria Vakalopoulou, Ribana Roscher
I'm looking into this for my course as well (Adv Geospatial Analytics w Python). It would be great to hear how you are thinking of incorporating LLMs into HWs and generally learning.
The AI for wildlife conservation community has been impacted by recent layoffs in the US public sector; many conservation scientists have reached out to AI practitioners for advice on building AI skills before re-entering the workforce.
NOAA just sent around notice that its annual global monitoring conference (the meeting where everyone talks about tracking global atmospheric change) is not happening.
"We are taking a short hiatus in holding GMAC while redefining our approach to the GMAC organization."

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F.
18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it.
We made this website to tell our story:

Scientists & experts: Add your name to this open letter calling on Congress and the Trump administration to ensure that NOAA and its sub-agencies remain fully funded and staffed, and that the independent, trusted science the agency produces is protected. act.ucsusa.org/4kajJuk
“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.”
A classic quote from Malcolm X, who was assassinated 60 years ago today.
We're seeking funding to take @source.coop to the next level.
16TB archive of data.gov has been released on @source.coop, featuring over 311,000 datasets collected during 2024 & 2025, a complete archive of federal public datasets.
An initiative of Radiant Earth, Source is proud to support efforts that make open data more accessible and usable for all.
A line graph showing atmospheric CO2 levels at Mauna Loa Observatory from 1955 to 2025. The y-axis represents CO2 mole fraction in parts per million (ppm), ranging from 320 to 420 ppm, while the x-axis is years.
The most iconic figure in the environmental sciences is the Keeling Curve, the CO₂ record from Mauna Loa, Hawaii.
@noaa.gov had a wonderful site where you could visualize and download these data, and now it's just gone. These data belong to us and we should not let this happen!
The entire archive of CDC datasets can be found here.
HUGE shoutout to data archivists- this work is important 👏🙌🏻

FEWS NET, which detects famine outbreaks, has shut down per Trump’s freeze on all foreign aid.
Friends, for something to be open source, we need to see
1. The data it was trained & evaluated on
2. The code
3. Model architecture
4. Model weights.
DeepSeek only gives 3, 4. And I'll see the day that anyone gives us #1 without being forced to do so, because all of them are stealing data.
We had a productive and engaging meeting on the sides of #AGU24 discussing #Geospatial #FoundationModels. Check out the summary in the following post.
Keep an eye for updates from us in the next couple of months regarding domain specific datasets.

The USG will spend more taxpayer money this week purging mentions of DEI from outdated web pages then it would ever have spent in a year pursuing DEI.
When my house and community burned - where was the satellite information? A very raw blog post I am putting up so folks in the satellite, geospatial and tech fields can listen firsthand why I think we are failing the situations that need us the most.

Call for papers at the 3rd #MachineLearning for #RemoteSensing workshop at #ICLR2025 in Singapore!
Deadline in 3 weeks on Feb 3rd.

I think #STAC API search parameters, with extensions, can be a "lingua franca" for geospatial search, regardless of whether the underlying data store is STAC.
Here's the search parameters I'm talking about: www.gadom.ski/stacrs/lates...

I would love to chat about this if you have time.
I shared some quick notes with a colleague about getting started with eoAPI. Hope it helps others!
- Getting started locally: eoapi.dev/intro/
- Deploy with CDK: github.com/developments...
- Deploy with k8s: github.com/developments...
- Generating STAC metadata: github.com/developments...
