A self-contained environment for open source geospatial tools

OSGeoLive is a self-contained bootable DVD, USB thumb drive, or Virtual Machine based on Lubuntu, that allows you to try a wide variety of open source geospatial. It's not just a bunch of open source geospatial tools it's an environment for geospatial tools.

Collecting And Processing Aerial Imagery At Scale

This is not a podcast episode about collecting data from a plane! it's a podcast episode about the possibilities of large-scale aerial mapping using only RGB data and the challenges you face along the way.

Labels Matter

Labels matter and if we are talking about Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning, Deep Learning then they matter a lot! but what is labeled data? how is it different from tagging, annotating, or segmentation? 

 

This podcast episode is an introduction to creating training data for AI algorithms and if you are new to AI or just want to understand it a bit better  go back into the podcast archive and check out the episode called "An Introduction To Artificial Intelligence"

Where Does The Blue Dot Come From?

Calculating the location of your mobile device ( the blue dot ) is not as straightforward as you might imagine. It involves databases of wifi hotspots, 3D city models, IMU's, GNSS, your proximity to cell towers, and maybe something called visual positioning.

Ed Parsons - Googles Geospatial Technologist explains
