This is Emit #6, in a series of blog-posts around the Smart Emission Platform , an Open Source software component framework that facilitates the acquisition, processing and (OGC web-API) unlocking of spatiotemporal sensor-data, mainly for Air Quality and other environmental sensor-data like noise. In Emit #5 – …

Never too late to look back. Inspired by the concise bullet-point-style of Tom Kralidis’ Cheers to 2018 , my personal highlights of living and working in the Open Source Geospatial and OSGeo(.nl|org)-world in 2018. I’ll post 2019 reso’s later. Not just personal projects, but also events from the OSGeo.nl Local Chapter …

This is Emit #5, in a series of blog-posts around the Smart Emission Platform , an Open Source software component framework that facilitates the acquisition, processing and (OGC web-API) unlocking of spatiotemporal sensor-data, mainly for Air Quality and other environmental sensor-data like noise. Summer holidays and a …

This is Emit #3, in a series of blog-posts around the Smart Emission Platform , an Open Source software component framework that facilitates the acquisition, processing and (OGC web-API) unlocking of spatiotemporal sensor-data, mainly for Air Quality. In Emit #1 , the big picture of the platform was sketched. …

One of my new year’s resolutions for 2018 was to “blog more”. Not being very active on the well-known social media: a bit tired of Twitter, never really into Facebook, bit of LinkedIn. OSGeo mailing lists , GitHub and Gitter is where you can find me most (thanks Jody, for reminding!). And I read many blogs, especially …

Revealing: the title refers, for the younger readers, to a great 1979-hit by The Police as expanded below. To be played at the loudest possible volume. If you don’t see anything here below try the YouTube link directly: One of the main aspects that glues the OSGeo-world together are OGC-standards: WMS, WFS, WMTS, WCS …

In my last post, Into the Weather – Part 2 , I outlined a global architecture of a Davis Vantage Pro2 weather station connected to a Raspberry Pi (RPi) running weewx weather software to capture raw weather data. Here I will try to depict how to bring this weather data “from the fluffy clouds into the digital cloud”. …

This is a follow-up to “Into the Weather – Part 1 – Exploring weewx” . Sorry, still almost no geospatial content for now. To recap: I am trying to setup an infrastructure where measurements from a Davis Vantage Pro2 Weather Station are collected and exposed to web services, most notably OGC Services like WMS-Time and …
