<p>PyQGIS. A not so well guarded secret in the most popular open-source geospatial system. You struggle doing a thing, and then open this one panel... And turns out, every single thing that you can click on, is available for programmatic calls. Load data, style it and process, prepare layouts for exporting, add panels and interactive modes, even add games using the GIS user interface. Everything.</p> <p>Geospatial is hard. Software is hard. Making a new software for a one-time or an obscure ...

<p>The MapLibre community is currently in the midst of developing the MapLibre Tile Format, a modern, open, and fully community-governed successor to the ubiquitous Mapbox Vector Tile (MVT) format. While MVT has served the mapping ecosystem well for over a decade, it also carries historical constraints that limit interoperability, formal specification quality, extensibility, and independence from proprietary platforms. As MapLibre continues to grow as the central open-source foundation for ...

<p>Boost.Geometry is a C++ library defining concepts, primitives and algorithms for solving geometry problems. It contains a dimension-agnostic, coordinate-system-agnostic and scalable kernel, on top of which algorithms are built: area, distance, convex hull, intersection, within, simplify, transform etc.</p> <p>The library contains instantiable geometry classes, but library users can also use their own legacy geometry types. It also contains spatial index allowing to perform spatial and knn ...

<p>This talk presents a FOSS stack for building, rendering, and using OpenStreetMap vector tiles. Ascend Maps ( https://github.com/styluslabs/maps ) is a cross-platform application for interactive maps. It is extremely customizable, with hiking, cycling, and transit views for the base map, user-editable sources, styles, and shaders for custom maps and overlays, and plugins for search, routing, and map sources. </p> <p>tangram-ng ( https://github.com/styluslabs/tangram-ng ) extends the Tangram ES ...

<p>Writing scripts that involve spatial data often gets messy fast, because of the number of formats, plethora of tools, and volume of data.</p> <p>Jupyter and similar notebook environments help with some of these problems, but can tend to favor one language at a time, and require a GUI or other environment for execution rather than a single "script". </p> <p>In this talk we introduce a new experimental console-based tool -- samaki -- which provides</p> <ul> <li> <p>a simple text format for ...
