Fedi friends in #geospatial / #GIS / #OpenStreetMap!
I am looking for some more contracting work. I can be your OpenStreetMap domain expert / trainer / community liaison, I can help you with geospatial APIs / data modeling / ELT, I can consult with you on geospatial technology or product strategy.
I prefer longer term engagements, but if you just want a week or two of my time to work through a smaller project, that's great too.
You can find my résumé here: https://ma.rtijn.org/
I'm searching for a dataset that provides information on all greenhouses across Europe. Ideally, this dataset would include a couple of relevant attributes such as: the location, crop type, ownership, ...
Does anyone know of such a dataset, preferably open-access? Any leads or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Draft programme for the OpenGeoHub summer school "Data Science for Earth Observation: Hands-on Training in Python, R and Julia" 1—6 September 2025, WICC, Wageningen, is now ready: https://opengeohub.org/summer-school/summer-school-2025/
We are excited to have over 20 lecturers, guru's of open source! giving hands-on sessions + hackathons + many social events. Over 40 hrs of coding & hacking. Don't miss a chance and register while there are still places (deadline: 1st of July)! #python #R #earthobservation #Geospatial #coding

I’m a #Geospatial analysis nerd, solving strategic spatial problems across Europe with #QGIS & #GIS and tinkering in #OpenStreetMap.
If you love puzzles made of pixels and place, stick around and please follow or retoot so other map magicians can find us.
In Geospatial / Geospatial Analytics: What creative and fun use case do You bring to events?
Has anyone built a robust workflow or model in #QGIS to calculate non-overlapping buffers for complex polygon geometries?
Specifically: I’m looking to automatically generate something like the 3-mile zone for all countries globally—without overlaps or gaps.
Any tips, plugins, or experiences welcome!

@ingalls Most government web maps that display GIS data use ESRI software. That software makes a zillion calls to the ArcGIS server in order to do anything. Think 'bloatware'.
Below is a link to the 'lightweight' Leaflet web map I produce that displays the same data - in this case, all the weather watches and warnings.
Open the map, click colored area, follow the link. Since the spot you clicked might have more than one type of weather watch/warning, scroll down in the popup since each type of watch or warning has its own link for the details.
At the risk of tooting my own horn, GISsurfer has lots of features that are not apparent just by looking at the map. For both video and PDF tutorials see:
