☀️ Good morning from #FOSS4GE2026 !
A new day has started in Timișoara, with sessions on ☁️ Cloud GIS , #QGIS 🧭, #MapLibre 🗺️, #GeoServer 🛠️, 🛰️ Earth Observation, 🤖 AI, 🌆Digital Twins, and much more.
We look forward to inspiring discussions, live demonstrations, and interesting conversations with the open geospatial community. See you around! 🌍
#OpenSource #Geospatial #GIS #EarthObservation #digitaltwins
If you've ever wondered how to bring geospatial capabilities into mobile & web apps with a single codebase, this one's for you! 📱🌍
📅 8th July | 6:00 PM onwards | London

🎤 One of today's keynotes at #FOSS4GEurope explored how open geospatial data is reshaping modern forestry🌲.
Satellite missions 🛰️ , global canopy height models🌍🌲, and open-source geospatial tools 🛠️💻 are helping integrate global and local data to build richer, more dynamic representations of forest ecosystems 🗺️, supporting better monitoring 👀 and more informed management decisions📊.
🎙️ Today is the deadline to submit your talk, lightning talk, or workshop for the FOSS4G North American conference this fall in Sacramento, CA.
Share your open source #geospatial projects!

Helmut Barz argues that #GoogleMaps is suffering from #enshittification, as a profit-driven pivot toward #AI-derived map data and a focus on lucrative urban markets leaves rural areas stranded in data deserts while the community that built the map is abandoned. He makes the case for reclaiming geographic data as a decentralised #publicgood.
How do you fit an entire city into 32 MB? Game Maker’s Toolkit’s deep dive into GTA III’s engine reveals how Rockstar Games squeezed a 4 km wide open world into the PlayStation 2 RAM. And the techniques turn out to be familiar to anyone working with #3D geospatial applications: #streaming, #LOD models, and #memory optimisation.

• I am NOT associated with HR/recruiting in ANY way
• Therefore, these are NOT endorsements, and there are no ‘referrals’ or the like for me
• I am simply sharing SOME roles I have seen – in the hope that they are of use to someone
• As such, I am not (and indeed can not) in any way ‘vet’ these roles (i.e., PLEASE do your ‘due diligence’ / use your judgement (with the hideous prevalence of ‘ghost jobs’, ‘fishing’, fraudulent so-called recruiters, etc))
• Further, roles listed are in no specific order (i.e., simply as I ‘encountered’ them during the week)
• There is ZERO cost to access this list of spatial / GIS roles
• I am not (really) ‘mining’ US Federal government roles - with the ‘hiring freeze’, uncertainty, etc
• You can subscribe to the (free) weekly LinkedIn newsletter www.linkedin.com/build-relation/newsletter-follow?entityUrn=7397678824928366594 or also for free at earthstuff.Substack.com - if so inclined
