Looking back... this has to be the largest march we've seen by a fair margin

We should close Fanshaw St more often

Good morning Auckland!

Earth Sciences NZ, our new center of excellence for environmental science in New Zealand, uses this image as their logo / hero image on their website. It's.. wrong. Wrong in a 6-fingered AI generated human way. Not an auspicious start to the agency's future. #gischat

Wondered if there was a Māori name for Rosebank Peninsula. Got Google's confidently incorrect (and confusingly plausible) answer.

Quote post with a beach photo from your library.

Waikahoa Bay, Jan 2025. Peak summer season. We've been going for 10 years and the full fishing ban in the marine reserve is making a difference. Dolphins turned up for the first time to catch fish and play around the rocks.

Is there a more liminal space than the storage facility hallway.

(also hooray for finally emptying out the unit after a year-long renovation project)

Experimenting with GeoDeep (github.com/uav4geo/GeoD...) – incredibly quick & easy way to get started in ML for geo. Classifying trees, roads and cars with built-in/free models. Data CC-BY LINZ source from data.linz.govt.nz/layer/95497-... #gischat

Clearing out the office bookshelf and came across these GIS gems from 2005! There is a lot of GDAL still relevant today, and a 3d example! #gischat
