Measuring Impervious Surfaces with Free Government Data
Thanks to all of you who tuned in to my Using Free Government Data and Remote Sensing to Create a More Powerful GIS webinar last week! We had a great turnout and many good questions. One topic that I briefly … Continue reading
Landsat Memories: Watching the Rainforest Go Down
What remote sensing memories does the Landsat 40th anniversary bring up for you? I’ve always felt an oddly personal connection to the deforestation in the Amazonian rainforest, especially considering that I’ve never even been there. I think it’s because back … Continue reading

Landsat is 40 and Still Groovy.
My colleague Chris Davis shared this video from Wired with me today. It’s so much fun to watch. I’m just getting back from the Esri International Users Conference where the 40th anniversary of Landsat (ERTS) was widely celebrated. At the … Continue reading
Educating Future Geospatial Analysts
A few weeks ago, Mark Bowersox enlightened us on what is a PED. He also asked what TLA (three letter acronyms) confuse us. While I don’t find it confusing, EDU is a three letter string that is often on my … Continue reading
Image Analysis on Mobile, Enterprise, & Desktop
