Los bosques son los pulmones de la Tierra. Contrarrestan el calentamiento global al tiempo que brindan protección y recursos para los seres humanos, los animales y las plantas. Son un tesoro natural, pero se pierden a un ritmo alarmante, especialmente desde mediados del siglo XX. Para monitorear, evaluar y proteger este órgano verde con precisión,Continue reading “Crean un mapa de los bosques de toda la Tierra con una resolución de 50 metros”

Solar Radiation Analysis test over Madrid using Open Data
Incoming solar radiation (insolation) received from the sun is the primary energy source that drives many of the earth’s physical and biological processes. Understanding its importance to landscape scales is key to understanding a broad range of natural processes and human activities. Taking advantage of official Open Data sources (Cadastre footprints and CNIG mainly) IContinue reading “Solar Radiation Analysis test over Madrid using Open Data”
Seminarios motivacionales para (quizá) futuros Geógrafos
La idea era mostrar el día a día del trabajo de un Geógrafo cualquiera (yo) y el recorrido que me ha llevado hasta aquí. El porqué de la elección de la carrera, los diferentes trabajos, las influencias de otros trabajos a priori sin conexión, el día a día actual, etc.
Running in Madrid. A GIS approach!
these density maps performed in Global Mapper overlay the geometry lines saved out my running application (Garmin Connect). and once they are exported to points, i can generate a density map, chosing an easy to understand legend and i overlay to Google Earth so its also easy to be sent if needed be (why for? i don’t know!).
LIDAR Madrid LAZ 20cm
Ya van varias veces en el último mes que alguien no especialista en temas geográficos-cartográficos me habla de ‘ese sistema’ de láser para saber ‘la altura del terreno’ y es que la verdad es que LIDAR parece magia. Es bastante increible que pase un avión con una tecnología invisible a ojos humanos y que seContinue reading “LIDAR Madrid LAZ 20cm”
Talking in public
I guess i was nervous the very first time and i even remember noticing how my voice was trembling to the bones (if i can say) back in year 2000 but now things are different. When you know what you are talking about and you are serious (well, all you can be!) then there’s no needContinue reading “Talking in public”
LATAM tour on Smart Cities
Just come back from Chile, Peru and Colombia, where my employer held some conferences on Smart Cities. I had the chance to talk in both venues: GIS expertise, geoprocessing, spatial analysis, etc. This is all about GIS, as always lately 😉 Our Smart City conferences and workshops held this month have been a great success!Continue reading “LATAM tour on Smart Cities”
BGS Geology of Britain: Geovisualization 100%
Oh! a must see: BGS Geology of Britain. Source from http://www.bgs.ac.uk/discoveringGeology/geologyOfBritain/home.html Britain is fortunate in possessing a remarkably varied geology within a relatively small area. The rocks that make up our islands represent a long and complicated history of events. They encompass most of the major periods of geological time and extremes of climate from desert toContinue reading “BGS Geology of Britain: Geovisualization 100%”

This feature requires a map layer containing point geometries withContinue reading “Visualizar mapas animados en el tiempo: Seguimiento de aves en CARTO [ENG]”
Euclidean allocation analysis II
Imagine you need to promote recycling. Imagine you have 1000 inhabitants from a small village and you need to provide proper colored plastic bags for each and every one of the categories you need to disaggregate: organic, plastic and paper. You need to service them all properly but you can only choose 5 shops (out of theContinue reading “Euclidean allocation analysis II”
