Oh no, remote #GeoParquet is much less fun in #QGIS than I thought. These few polygons took ~50 Megabytes to fetch. I guess it is not enough to just use #GDAL defaults.

How do I build a #FlatGeobuf with #GDAL that makes #QGIS *not* scan the whole file when adding to determine some metadata?

Straße von Hormus: So legt der Krieg die Straße von Hormus lahm Seit Samstag droht der Iran damit, Schiffe anzugreifen, die die Straße von Hormus passieren. Sehen Sie hier, welche Folgen das für den Verkehr in der Meerenge hat.

I made an animated map of ship movements in the Straights of Hormuz using data from marinetraffic.com.

Ship track frames rendered using #ggplot, base map created using #gdal, video editing using #ffmpeg, video player written in #svelte.

Counting NDFF records – Ecodiv.earth This post demonstrates how NDFF biodiversity observations can be processed with open-source GIS tools like QGIS and gdal to create species-richness heatmaps.

Also a weighted variant for those who want to account for spatial precision.
The NDFF data has been freely accessible since 2025, so it is a good time to start playing with it 🗺️

2025 GDAL User Survey In 2024, the GDAL User Survey solicited feedback to help focus GDAL Sponsorship Program activities. Your contribution mattered. Last years' results triggered the project to embark on the GDAL CLI Modernization effort which the project released this year in GDAL 3.11 and 3.12. This year's survey provides guidance for steering deployment of sponsorship resources by echoing 2024's while focusing on topics such as LLM usage, security remediation, fundraising, and more. Thank you again for your valuable time and feedback. Please help us be more effective by circulating the survey through your social media and networks. This survey will close on December 31st, 2025. – Howard Butler, GDAL Sponsorship Program Lead
