This is a completely made up point cloud but its for a real place!
We have been testing generative models to create 3d meshes ... this is based on Skyfall-GS I'll write a longer post on this on our @geobase.bsky.social blog soon, though still a long way to go for applications but impressive.

Recently had some fun micromapping Pillar Falls in Idaho's Snake River Canyon. Featuring dramatic basalt pillars, this falls runs over exposed bedrock much of the year (intermittent=yes in OpenStreetMap terms). This makes for a popular local hangout spot and an interesting place to map

I've been playing around with #ecmwf #weatherforecast model called AIFS. Deployed a demo inference app it was super smooth and works reasonably fast on a small GPU well done to @ecmwf.int form making the model available! 🇪🇺

We just ran a super resolution generative model on top of imagery by ESA over Riyadh. One can use it to get change detection over old images and new images and see things that you can’t see the lower resolution. It’s a very cool, though must be used with caution, as one can't guarantee accuracy

not many people know this but it's possible to figure out how fast an object is moving from a satellite image... multiband hi-resolutions satellites today capture different wave lengths with slight time diffs between the capture.
