Visualization 12-11-4 Sentinel 2 in relation to events in and around the Gaza Strip in early October 2023. It is difficult to remain aseptic even when talking about something technical. I will only say that I am ashamed of the world today. I am ashamed of the rulers and the ignorance of those who followContinue reading “No words (or almost)”

Digital Twin. Real-Time Public Transportation Visualization on LiveMaps360.com
The primary feature of LiveMaps360.com is its ability to display public transportation data in real-time. By integrating data from Tokyo’s extensive public transportation network, including buses, trains, and subways, the website enables users to track the movement of vehicles and access critical information such as arrival times, routes, and service disruptions.
I FORO NACIONAL: CIENCIAS DE DATOS ESPACIALES COMO HERRAMIENTA EFICAZ EN LA GESTION PUBLICA. Lima (Perú)
Esta pasada semana he tenido el honor de viajar a Lima (Perú) para participar en el el Primer Foro Nacional de Ciencias de Datos Espaciales como herramienta eficaz para la gestión pública estos pasados 18-19 Julio 2023 en el Centro de Convenciones de Lima, Perú. Mi ponencia era sobre el DIGITAL TWIN en la ciudad de CUZCO así como el BRIGHT EARTH CITY TEXTURING, una solución de texturización procedural con semántica 3D de bajo mantenimento de mi empresa Luxcarta, un gran adelanto tecnológico de nuestro departamento de I+D.
The beauty (and precision) of LIDAR:
Lidar, which stands for Light Detection and Ranging, is a technology that uses laser beams to measure distances and create detailed maps of the surrounding environment. It works by emitting laser pulses and then measuring the time it takes for the pulses to bounce back after hitting objects in their path. By analyzing the returning signals, lidar can accurately calculate the distance to various points and generate a three-dimensional map.
Learning to use GOES constellation
GOES satellites continually view the continental United States, Pacific and Atlantic Oceans, Central and South America, and Southern Canada. To fully cover Alaska, Hawaii, the entire continental United States and the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans (for tropical storms), NOAA operates two GOES satellites simultaneously
Measuring snow coverage using EOB – Earth Observation – Sentinel HUB
Playing with Sentinel 2 images I realized that the amount of snow this year has been very low compared to last winter. Here are a couple of images from January 2022 and 2023 of the Canfranc – Paticosa – Jaca area. One of the most interesting things about this EO browser is that in addition to a standard 2D visualisation, we can visualise in 3D. Here is an video example. Another interesting thing is to be able to quantify the snowfall. There is a snow classifier based on NSDI (Normalized Difference Snow Index, The Normalized Difference Snow Index (NDSI) snow cover is an index that is related to the presence of snow in a pixel and is a more accurate description of snow detection as compared to Fractional Snow Cover (FSC).
Consultoría e ideología: Manual de estupidez
Yo soy un humilde Geógrafo, además soy alguien curioso al que no le importa meterme en mil fregados por las razones más variadas, que ha trabajado y trabaja como tal pero también como diseñador, como fotógrafo o como comercial. He trabajado con obreros, con arquitectos, porteros de fincas, con dibujantes, con consultores de todos losContinue reading “Consultoría e ideología: Manual de estupidez”
Faible taux d’humidité au Pays Basque. Sérieux ?
Quand vous venez passer le week-end dans un village du Pays Basque et que vous voyez cette image verte ci-dessous, vous vous dites, ho-ho, ici ils n’ont pas eu les problèmes de chaleur et de manque de pluie que nous avons subis dans le centre et le sud de la péninsule. Mais tout à coup, ils vous disent que oui, ils ont aussi souffert et qu’il est impossible qu’ils aient atteint les niveaux d’humidité des autres années…
Inland Water levels… Globally. Copernicus did it again!
The Water Observatory is an Earth-observation-based solution that provides reliable and timely information about surface water levels of waterbodies across the globe. All observations are provided and can be explored interactively via the Water Observatory Dashboard or via RESTful API. The Water Observatory provides a valuable service to local authorities, governmental agencies, natural parks and reserves, agricultural ministries and agencies, stakeholders in food and energy production, and citizens alike.
NO AL PELOTAZO DE LA ERMITA DEL SANTO
Esta semana pasada he estado colaborando puntualmente con la Plataforma “planermitadelsanto”, vecinos como yo que se han (nos hemos) organizado para echar abajo un plan de recalificación urbanística que no es ni mucho menos del interés general. He preparado para ellos algunos mapas en 3D (georeferenciando planos, extruyendo manualmente usando datos del Plan propuesto, realizandoContinue reading “NO AL PELOTAZO DE LA ERMITA DEL SANTO“
