Summer 24 somewhere in Sweden.
After a delicious dinner, we went for a digestive walk with the midnightsun and making some survey. Of course I used the Osmand app with Quick Action function, Streetcomplete and took pictures with Mapcomplete.

Glacial Lake Mapping Using Remote Sensing Geo-Foundation Model

doi.org/10.1016/j.jag.2025.104 <-- shared paper
--
HIGHLIGHTS:
• Proposed U-ViT model based on Prithvi GFM for multi-sensor glacial lake mapping.
• Achieved an F1 score of 0.894 on Sentinel-1&2, surpassing CNNs scoring below 0.8.
• Maintains strong performance with 50% less training data, proving efficiency.
• Excels in detecting small lakes (<0.01km²) and handling clouds and complex terrains..."

The Concept Of Indigenous GIS
--
Reading a paper (alturl.com/8wte5), they used the specific term ‘Indigenous GIS’ – and I found this intriguing!
As I read it, spatial data collection and analysis was done with a focus on how a tribe or social group might ‘see’ the data, including spatiotemporal....
I look forward to finding out more about what others are working on! – so PLEASE feel free to share any examples that you might have…

I do use online/offline mapping systems all the time on my GPS, phone and other tech related gadgets. But, I have to say, there is nothing quite like getting a paper map arriving in the post.

I'm like a kid with a new toy and excited to see what lies within. I can dream of adventures to come better with a paper map than with online mapping systems.

Now to seriously plan our 7-10 day backpacking trip in the Pyrenees

Google Maps just dropped a new feature using AI to add crossings. It's an imperfect step in the right direction.

The #OpenStreetMap community knows mapping these features with AI is a challenge. We do a fantastic job with this working by hand! If you prefer the image on the right to the image on the left, consider helping us!

Need spatial data?

The list of ArcGIS server addresses that I curate now has over 4,000 addresses for ArcGIS servers at all levels of USA government, from federal to local.

Last fall, Jonathan at geoseer.net/ (spatial data search tool) sent me a massive list of ArcGIS server addresses that have been detected by their scanning methods. I finally had a chance to process that information and added *many* ArcGIS server addresses to the list I curate. Thanks Jonathan!
