AI-ready OGC standards – Spatialists – geospatial news

The #OGC ran an #AI-#DGGS pilot on disaster management and derived five pillars for geospatial AI readiness from it: tool-ability, machine-readable metadata, guardrails, reproducibility, and trust & security. Among the interesting follow-up work items: enabling non-DGGS clients, treating the time dimension as a first-class topic alongside space, and cataloging which spatial analysis functions should be available in a standardized #DGGS-based manner.

From fields to surface-specific points, geomorphons, and networks – Spatialists – geospatial news

David O’Sullivan’s latest post in his “GIS, a Transformational Approach” series explores how geospatial data transitions between continuous #fields and discrete forms like #points, #lines, and #areas. Using #geomorphometry concepts such as surface-specific points, geomorphons, and surface networks as an example, the data transformations are illustrated using #R-based workflows.
