sur Paul Ramsey: Cancer 2
Publié: 14 April 2024, 2:00am CEST
Before I joined the population of fellow cancer travellers, I had the same simple linear understanding of the “process” that most people do.
You get diagnosed, you get treatment, it works or it doesn’t.
What I didn’t appreciate (and this will vary from cancer to cancer, but my experience is with colorectal) is how little certainty there is, and how wide the grey areas are.
Like, in my previous post, I said I was “diagnosed” with cancer. Which maybe made you think I have it. But that’s not how it works. I had a colonoscopy, and a large polyp was removed, and that polyp was cancerous, and a very small part of it could not be excised. So it’s still in me.
Do I have cancer? Maybe! I have a probability of having live cancer cells in me that is significantly higher than zero. But not as high as one.
How bad is what I have? This is also a game of probabilty. Modern technology can shave off the edges of the distribution, but it can’t quite nail it down.
A computed tomography (CT) scan didn’t show any other tumors in my body, so that means I probably don’t have “stage 4” (modulo the resolution of the scan), which is mostly incurable (though it can be manageable), where the cancer has managed to spread outside the colon.
An MRI didn’t show any swollen lymph nodes, which means I maybe do not have “stage 3”, which requires chemotherapy, because the cancer has partially escaped the colon. But MRI results are better at proving rather than disproving nodal involvement and people report having surgical results that run counter to the MRI all the time.
That leaves me (theoretically) at “stage 2”, looking at a surgical “cure” that involves removing the majority of my rectum and a bunch of lymph nodes. At that point (after the major life-altering surgery!) the excised bits are sent to a pathologist, and the probability tree narrows a little more. Either the pathologist finds cancer in the nodes (MRI was wrong), and I am “upstaged” to stage 3 and sent to chemotherapy, or she doesn’t and I remain a stage 2 and move to a program of monitoring.
In an exciting third possibility, the pathologist finds no cancer in the lymph nodes or the rectum, which means I will have had major life-altering surgery to remove… nothing dangerous. My surgeon says I should find this a happy result (no cancer!) which is probably because he’s seen so many unhappy results, but it’s a major surgery with life-long side effects and I would do almost anything to not have to have it.
Amazingly, despite our modern technology there’s just no way to know for sure if there are still live cancer cells in me short of taking the affected bits out and doing the pathology. Or waiting to see if something grows back, which is to flirt with a much worse prognosis.
Monitoring will be regular blood tests, annual scans and colonoscopies for several years, as the probability of recurrence slowly and asymptotically moves toward (but never quite arrives at) zero. And all those tests and procedures have their own error rates and blind spots.
There are no certainties. All the measuring and cutting and chemicals, and I will still have not driven the cancer entirely out, it will stubbornly remain as a probability, a non-zero ghost haunting me every year of the rest of my hopefully long life.
And of course worth mentioning, I am getting the snack-sized, easy-mode version of this experience! People in stage three or stage four face a probability tree with a lot more “and then you probably die in a few years” branches, and the same continuous reevaluation of that tree, with each new procedure and scan, each new discovery of progression or remission.
Talk to you again soon, inshalla.

sur Étude EDF Indoor – déplacements & guidage en intérieur et réalisation d’un prototype
Publié: 11 April 2024, 7:00am CEST par Caroline Chanlon
EDF a sollicité les équipes d’Oslandia pour la réalisation d’une étude puis une preuve de concept sous forme de logiciel prototype. L’étude comprend un rapport et des préconisations sur la cartographie indoor, l’analyse des déplacements et le guidage à l’intérieur de bâtiments et plus spécifiquement de centrales nucléaires. Le prototype concerne le calcul d’itinéraires.
ContexteLes centrales nucléaires sont des bâtiments complexes comprenant des zones pouvant être temporairement fermées à la circulation et / ou présentant une dangerosité pour le personnel. Les déplacements à l’intérieur de ces bâtiments nécessitent donc des calculs d’itinéraires, réalisés actuellement avant l’intervention. EDF R&D souhaite disposer d’une application mobile pour optimiser les déplacements de ses personnels de façon dynamique, et garantir leur sécurité.
L’étude OslandiaCette étude a permis de définir une architecture globale de la solution ainsi que différentes préconisations et scénarii concernant la technologie utilisée pour développer l’application mobile.
Oslandia a proposé un modèle relationnel de données correspondant au besoin fonctionnel et compatible avec le standard IndoorGML, puis une proposition d’architecture logicielle globale de la solution, des différents flux applicatifs et les considérations de sécurité des données.
Enfin, plusieurs scénarii basés sur des technologies différentes sont envisagés pour le développement de l’application mobile (QFIELD, OSMAND, application spécifique), avec pour chacun les avantages et inconvénients de la solution.
Le prototype : calcul d’itinérairesSuite à l’étude, une demande de réalisation de POC (Proof Of Concept) a été commandée par EDF. Ce prototype concerne le calcul du graphe de déplacement et des itinéraires. Pour le calcul du graphe, les technologies PostgreSQL et PostGIS ont été utilisées. Concernant les calculs d’itinéraires, l’extension pgRouting de PostgreSQL a été mise en œuvre.
Les étapes :- Nettoyage des données (topologie)
- Extraction des sols et des murs par niveau
- Découpage des sols en cellules à l’aide de l’algorithme de Voronoï
- Ajout des ascenseurs, escaliers et crinolines pour la navigation entre les niveaux
- Calcul du graphe de déplacement
- Calcul des itinéraires avec pgRouting
- Fermeture des zones à forte radioactivité
- Navigation entre différents équipements
- Ajout de barrières infranchissables (zone de chantiers,…)
- Possibilité d’utiliser des sols à des altitudes différentes dans un même étage (passerelles, escalier vers une plateforme surélevée).
Voilà une vidéo de démo du prototype : Conclusion
Ce travail a permis de valider la faisabilité d’une application mobile permettant d’optimiser les déplacements dans les environnements contraints et dangereux gérés par EDF. Le travail d’Oslandia sur un traitement de la donnée intelligent et des algorithmes adaptés ont levé les verrous sur la faisabilité fonctionnelle de l’optimisation des déplacements pour la sécurité des personnes.
Le travail réalisé avec une modalité étude et le prototype ont montré une forte efficacité et une concrétisation des préconisations.
Le chemin est désormais libre et optimisé pour la réalisation d’une application complète.

sur Paul Ramsey: Cancer 1
Publié: 10 April 2024, 6:00pm CEST
A little over a month ago, three days after my 53rd birthday, I received a diagnosis of rectal cancer. Happy birthday to me.
Since then, I have been wrestling with how public to be about it. I have a sense that writing is good for me. But it also keeps like milk. I wrote most of this a couple weeks ago and my head space has already evolved.
So writing like this is mostly a work of self-absorption (I’m sure you can forgive me) but hopefully it also helps to raise awareness amongst the cohort of people who might know me or read this.
Colorectal cancer rates are going up, and the expected age of occurance is going down. Please get screened. No matter your age, ask your clinician for a “FIT test”. If you’re over 45, just ask for a colonoscopy, the FIT test isn’t perfect.
I have a pretty good prognosis, mostly because my case was caught by screening, not by experiencing symptoms bad enough to warrant a trip to the doctor. Most of the people who get diagnosed after showing symptoms have it worse than I, and will have a longer, harder road to recovery. Get screened.
Our language of cancer borrows a bit from the language of contagion. I “got” cancer. It’s not quite a neutral description, there’s a hint of agency in there, maybe I did something wrong? This article drives me crazy, the author “went vegan and became a distance runner” after his father died of colorectal cancer.
Sorry friend, cancer is not something you “get”, and it’s not something you can opt out of with clean living. It’s something that happens to you. Take it from this running, cycling, ocean rowing, rock climbing, healthy eater – driving down the marginal probability of cancer (and heart disease (and depression (and more))) with exercise and diet is its own reward, but you are not in control. When cancer wants you, it will come for you.
This is why you should get screened (right?). It’s the one way to proactively protect yourself. The amazing thing about a colonoscopy is, not only can it detect cancer, but it also prevent it, by removing pre-cancerous polyps. It’s possible that screening could have prevented my case, if I had been screened a few years earlier.
I am now a denizen of numerous Facebook fora for fellow travellers along this life path, and one of the posts last week asked “what do you think cancer taught you”? I am a little too early on the path to write an answer myself, but one woman’s answer struck me.
She said it taught her that control is an illusion.
Before, I had plans. I could tell you I was going to go places, and do things, and when I was going to do them, next month, next season, next year. I was in control. Now, I can tell you what I will be doing next week. Perhaps. The rest is in other hands than mine.
Talk to you again soon, inshalla.

sur OPENGIS.ch: Status of Cloud Optimized Geospatial Formats
Publié: 9 April 2024, 7:04am CEST
Cloud-optimized formats are changing how we handle geospatial data, making it easier to access and work with large datasets directly in the cloud. These formats reduce the need to download entire datasets, facilitating quicker and more focused data analysis and visualization. For those interested in the specifics of these advancements, our recent Cloud Optimized Geospatial Formats – Status Report, offers an introduction into the topic, recommendations for usage and an overview of promising formats.
Within this project, we also released a sample of various tiles downloaded from swissSURFACE3D as a single cloud optimized point cloud file and made it accessible also via a potree powered web viewer that demonstrates how one single file can be used for visualization in the web and making accessible for applications like QGIS and QField via the direct access URL .
I would like to thank GeoStandards.ch and SGS to allow us working on this.
We’re keen to hear from you as well. Please share your experiences or additional insights and formats in the comments.

As I get one year wiser, I want to share something from my past. I used to live in Toulouse, in the southwest part of France. Property development is huge there, but sometimes, in the middle of the new neighbourhood, we keep remains of the past. The map in Montaudran shows the former starting point of the postal service l’aéropostale. The short part of the runway is preserved during this ongoing Uban renewal.
The area will host the Aeroposace campus, which will be the future base of the Galileo satellite navigation system.

sur OPENGIS.ch: QField 3.2 “Congo”: Making your life easier
Publié: 4 April 2024, 9:58am CEST
Focused on stability and usability improvements, most users will find something to celebrate in QField 3.2
Main highlightsThis new release introduces project-defined tracking sessions, which are automatically activated when the project is loaded. Defined while setting up and tweaking a project on QGIS, these sessions permit the automated tracking of device positions without taking any action in QField beyond opening the project itself. This liberates field users from remembering to launch a session on app launch and lowers the knowledge required to collect such data. For more details, please read the relevant QField documentation section.
As good as the above-described functionality sounds, it really shines through in cloud projects when paired with two other new featurs.
First, cloud projects can now automatically push accumulated changes at regular intervals. The functionality can be manually toggled for any cloud project by going to the synchronization panel in QField and activating the relevant toggle (see middle screenshot above). It can also be turned on project load by enabling automatic push when setting up the project in QGIS via the project properties dialog. When activated through this project setting, the functionality will always be activated, and the need for field users to take any action will be removed.
Pushing changes regularly is great, but it could easily have gotten in the way of blocking popups. This is why QField 3.2 can now push changes and synchronize cloud projects in the background. We still kept a ‘successfully pushed changes’ toast message to let you know the magic has happened
With all of the above, cloud projects on QField can now deliver near real-time tracking of devices in the field, all configured on one desktop machine and deployed through QFieldCloud. Thanks to Groupements forestiers Québec for sponsoring these enhancements.
Other noteworthy feature additions in this release include:
- A brand new undo/redo mechanism allows users to rollback feature addition, editing, and/or deletion at will. The redesigned QField main menu is accessible by long pressing on the top-left dashboard button.
- Support for projects’ titles and copyright map decorations as overlays on top of the map canvas in QField allows projects to better convey attributions and additional context through informative titles.
The QFieldCloud user experience continues to be improved. In this release, we have reworked the visual feedback provided when downloading and synchronizing projects through the addition of a progress bar as well as additional details, such as the overall size of the files being fetched. In addition, a visual indicator has been added to the dashboard and the cloud projects list to alert users to the presence of a newer project file on the cloud for projects locally available on the device.
With that said, if you haven’t signed onto QFieldCloud yet, try it! Psst, the community account is free
The creation of relationship children during feature digitizing is now smoother as we lifted the requirement to save a parent feature before creating children. Users can now proceed in the order that feels most natural to them.
Finally, Android users will be happy to hear that a significant rework of native camera, gallery, and file picker activities has led to increased stability and much better integration with Android itself. Activities such as the gallery are now properly overlayed on top of the QField map canvas instead of showing a black screen.

sur GeoServer Team: How to style layers using GeoServer and QGIS
Publié: 4 April 2024, 2:00am CEST
GeoSpatial Techno is a startup focused on geospatial information that is providing e-learning courses to enhance the knowledge of geospatial information users, students, and other startups. The main approach of this startup is providing quality, valid specialized training in the field of geospatial information.
( YouTube | LinkedIn | Facebook | X )
Using GeoServer and QGIS to style a layerIn this session, we will explore “How to style layers using GeoServer and QGIS” to produce beautiful maps. If you want to access the complete tutorial, simply click on the link
IntroductionGeospatial data has no intrinsic visual component and it must be styled to be visually represented on a map. By default, GeoServer uses a markup language called Styled Layer Descriptor (SLD) to define styling rules for displaying data. SLD is an XML-based language that allows users and software to control the visual portrayal of geospatial data. This language ensures that clients and servers can both understand how to render the data visually.
Note. This video was recorded on GeoServer 2.20.0, which is not the most up-to-date version. Currently, versions 2.24.x and 2.25.x are supported. To ensure you have the latest release, please visit geoserver.org and avoid using older versions of GeoServer.
Add a StyleTo add a new style, navigate to the Data > Styles page, then click on the Add a new style link. You will be redirected to the new style page, which is the same as the Style Editor Data tab.
This tab includes basic style information, the ability to generate a style and legend details. It has some mandatory basic style information, such as:
- Name: It’s the name of the style and it must be a unique name.
- Workspace: Styles can be inside workspaces which causes restrictions. In other words, the styles in a workspace can only be assigned to the services of that, and other services outside it, cannot use these styles. Styles also can be “global” or no workspace, so they don’t have any restrictions and services can be used for all suitable styles.
- Format: Default options are SLD and ZIP formats. To use other formats such as CSS and YSLD, you should download and install extensions. Make sure to match the version of the extension to the version of the GeoServer.
The “Style Content” area provides options for creating, copying, or uploading a style. It has three options:
- Generate a default style: Choose a generic style based on geometry such as Point, Line, Polygon, Raster, or Generic and click the Generate link when selected.
- Copy from existing style: Select an existing style from GeoServer and copy its contents to the current style. Note that not all styles may be compatible with all layers. Click the Copy link when selected.
- Upload a style file: Press the Browse button to locate and select a plain text file from your local system to add as the style. Click on the Upload link to add the style file.
The Legend area allows you to preview the legend for the style. Click on the Preview legend link to generate a legend based on the current settings.
At the bottom of the Style Editor page, you’ll find several options: Validate, Apply, Save and Cancel. During editing and especially after editing is complete, you can check the validation of the syntax by pressing the Validate button at the bottom. If any validation errors are found, a red message is displayed, and if no errors are found, a green message is displayed. To make changes, press the Apply button to access all the tabs and finally press the Save button.
After having created the style, it’s time to apply it to the layer. To do it, follow these steps:
- Navigate to the Data > Layers page then click on the layer’s name link to open the layer’s properties form. Switch to the Publishing tab.
- Go to the Style section and from the Default Style list, select the suitable style, then press the Save button.
- Navigate to the **Data > Layer Preview ** page and open up OpenLayers preview for the layer.
On the Styles page, click on the style name to open the Style Editor. The Style Editor page presents the style definition and contains four tabs with many configuration options: Data , Publishing , Layer Preview and Layer Attributes.
- Data tab: The Data tab includes basic style information, the ability to generate a style, and legend details. Moreover, it allows for direct editing of style definitions at the bottom, with support for line numbering, automatic indentation, and real-time syntax highlighting. You can switch between tabs to create and edit styles easily and can adjust the font size of the editor.
- Publishing tab: This tab shows all layers available on the server, along with their default style and any additional styles they may have. You can easily see which layers are linked to the current style by checking a box in the table.
- Layer Preview tab: This tab enables you to preview and edit the current style of any layer without switching pages. You can easily select the desired layer to preview and fine-tune styles to continuously test visualization changes.
- Layer Attributes tab: The Layer Attributes tab shows a list of attributes for the selected layer, making it easy to see and work with the attributes associated with the layer. This can help in deciding which attribute to use for labeling or setting up scale-dependent rules.
QGIS has a style editor for map rendering with various possibilities, including the export of raster styles to SLD for use in GeoServer. For versions before 3.4.5, a plugin called SLD4raster is required for exporting SLD for use in GeoServer.
Here’s a simple guide to styling a vector layer in GeoServer:
- Open QGIS (minimum version 3.0) and loading the vector dataset into your project.
- Double click on the layer to open the Properties dialog and navigate to the Symbology page.
- Select a Graduated rendering, choose the desired column, and press the Classify button.
- Return to the Properties dialog and go to the bottom of the Styles page. Select Style > Save Style.
- Save the style in SLD format and choose the location for the file.
- Use the Choose File button to locate your exported file in the folder and select it.
- Click on the Upload link to load the file into the editor form.
- Press the Validate button to ensure there are no errors, then press the Save button.
- Switch to the Publishing tab and choose either Default or Associated checkbox to apply the new style to the desired layer.
Here is a step by step guide to style a raster layer for GeoServer:
- Begin by opening QGIS with a minimum version of 3.4.5.
- Load the raster layer into your project.
- Double click on the layer to access the Properties and go to the Symbology tab.
- Select Singleband pseudocolor as the Render type, choose Linear method for Interpolation, and select a desired Color ramp.
- Press the Classify button to create a new color classification, then press the Apply button to save this classification. At the bottom-left of the page, choose Style and press Save Style button.
- Choose a name and export it in SLD format to your preferred location.
- In GeoServer, navigate to the Style section and click on Add a new style to open the editor form.
- Use the Choose File button to locate your exported file in the folder and select it.
- Click on the Upload link to load the file into the editor form.
- Validate the style by pressing the Validate button to ensure there are no errors, then press the Save button.
- Navigate to Data > Layers page and open the layer’s properties form by clicking on the layer’s name. Switch to the Publishing tab.
- Set the style as Default Style and press the Save button.
- Finally, in the Layer Preview section, open the OpenLayers preview for the raster layer.
To remove a style, click on the checkbox next to the style. Multiple styles can be selected at the same time. Press the Remove selected style(s) button at the top of the page. You will be asked for confirmation and press the OK button to remove the selected style(s).

sur [1’Tech by Oslandia] Réversibilité
Publié: 2 April 2024, 7:00am CEST par Caroline Chanlon
Dans cette minute Tech, nos collaborateurs vous proposent d’expliquer une technologie, une méthodologie, un concept. Après open source, LiDAR et webGL, on a brainstormé sur GitLab pour donner notre meilleure définition de la réversibilité.
La réversibilité désigne l’opération de retour de responsabilité technique, par lequel le client reprend les prestations qu’il avait confiées à un prestataire à l’issue du projet. Elle comprend la fourniture de l’ensemble des éléments permettant de retrouver une autonomie avec la solution déployée initialement : logiciels exécutables, codes sources, documentation, paramétrage, supports de formation, données dans des formats ouverts.
Les caractéristiques intrinsèques de l’open source offrent à l’utilisateur ces garanties : l’interopérabilité, le standard et la réversibilité, et ce à des coûts optimaux.
La réversibilité, les prestations et les coûts associés sont souvent les grands oubliés lors d’un démarrage projet, alors qu’une analyse de TCO ( Total Cost of Ownership ) ne devrait pas les occulter. Elle est également un élément clé de la souveraineté du système d’information.

sur Mappery: IMPORTANT: Mappery Editorial Policy Changes
Publié: 1 April 2024, 11:00am CEST
Dear followers. The Mappery team have been reflecting on some of the content we have posted recently. We’re concerned that cartography is being commercially exploited in some sectors (particularly the drinks industry) with the creation of entirely fictitious maps to promote a brand. We think this is wrong and is disrespectful of the art and science of cartography.
In posting some of this content, we recognise that our promotion has contributed to this problem, and for this error in judgement we are genuinely sorry and ask for your forgiveness. In future we will only post maps that have gone wild in good faith, rather than being fictitious creations produced solely for commercial gain. Once again, sorry for our part in this. In the meantime here are some shallots that look like a contour map. (Original credit Amanda Huber)

Py3dtiles est une librairie et un outil Python en ligne de commande pour générer, lire et modifier des 3D Tiles. On peut l'utiliser seul ou l'intégrer dans sa propre application Python.
La version 7.0.0 vient de sortir, il est temps de faire une petite rétrospective sur les dernières années !
La communauté et un nouveau mainteneurNous accueillons un nouveau mainteneur : Lorenzo Marnat (Liris). Le Liris a très significativement contribué à py3dtiles et a mené un travail de R&D conséquent sur leur fork et via l'application py3dtilers. Lorenzo réalise depuis quelques mois le travail d'intégration dans le tronc commun, véritable travail de fourmi ô combien nécessaire. L'intégrer à l'équipe était donc l'étape logique dans ce processus.
Cela signifie que py3dtiles n'est plus un projet uniquement Oslandien ! Ceci constitue une étape très importante dans le développement d'un projet réellement communautaire et nous sommes très heureux de l'avoir dans l'équipe.
En conséquence, certains changements ont été adoptés afin que py3dtiles soit plus indépendant d'Oslandia. Nous espérons ainsi favoriser les contributions externes et l'implication d'autres entitées qu'Oslandia et le Liris:
- Le dépôt de code a été déplacé vers sa propre organisation: [https:]] . Nous en avons profité pour renommer la branche principale en main à la place de master (afin de s'approcher du défaut de GitLab).
- Le site web est maintenant hébergé sur [https:]] . Une redirection de l'ancien site a été mise en place, mais nous conseillons tout de même de mettre à jour vos signets web.
- Nous avons maintenant un document décrivant la gouvernance: GOVERNANCE.md, qui décrit le fonctionnement de la communauté.
- Et nous avons un canal de discussion instantané sur matrix.org !
Lidar HD de l'ign converti en 3dtiles avec py3dtiles et visualisé avec giro3d
Les évolutions fonctionnelles Améliorations du support de la spécificationEn version 2, py3dtiles souffrait encore de l'absence de ces quelques classes décrivant les concepts 3Dtiles, et qui sont maintenant présentes en version 7 :
- BoundingVolumeBox
- TileSet
- Tile
- Extension
Les feature tables sont maintenant supportées pour les b3dm en plus des pnts.
Nouveaux formatsPy3dtiles supporte maintenant les fichiers PLY (en nuage de points uniquement) et LAZ.
Le support XYZ et CSV a été amélioré, avec une auto-détection du format du CSV.
py3dtiles mergeIl s'agit d'une nouvelle commande permettant de générer un tileset à partir de 2 autres tilesets. Pour l'instant la génération des tuiles racines est assez naïve, mais devrait très bien fonctionner avec les nuages de points.
Autres fonctionnalitésIl est maintenant possible d'exporter les classifications des nuages de points dans les pnts.
Le support des batch tables a été ajouté.
Les évolutions techniques Des évolutions de packaging Les dépendances optionnellesAvec le support de formats additionnels, le nombre de dépendances de py3dtiles augmente de façon significative. Nous avons créé des sections de dépendances optionnelles, afin d'éviter de demander aux utilisateurs d'installer des librairies pour des formats qu'ils n'utilisent pas.
Image DockerNous publions maintenant des images docker sur le gitlab registry et docker hub.
Support WindowsUn premier travail pour supporter Windows a été effectué, mais du travail reste à accomplir pour produire un .exe facilitant le déploiement.
La qualité du codeDe gros efforts ont été effectués pour rendre la contribution plus agréable et améliorer globalement la qualité du code. Des analyseurs automatiques de code ont été mis en place, notamment des linters et un SonarCloud.
Nous avons fait un effort spécifique pour typer nos déclarations de fonctions et variables avec les nouvelles possibilités qu'offre les versions modernes de Python.
À venirLe point principal sera le support des géométries dans le processus de conversion multiprocessus lancé par py3dtiles convert. Cela permettra ensuite d'avoir un support des formats géométriques, en particulier l'IFC ! (Mais également, l'amélioration du support PLY, des tables PostGIS, des OBJ, etc.).
D'autres améliorations sont bien sûr dans les cartons.
Impliquez-vous !Py3dtiles est un logiciel communautaire et se portera mieux si vous participez ! Tester, ouvrir des tickets, voire contribuer ou financer sont des actions qui sont très utiles pour le projet. Le guide de contribution de la communauté est ici. Alternativement, n'hésitez pas à nous contacter pour en discuter !

sur Ecodiv.earth: An addon to download the AHN data in GRASS GIS
Publié: 23 March 2024, 12:00am CET
The r.in.ahn addonIn the previous post, I introduced the ‘Actueel Hoogtebestand Nederland’. To start with a small correction, the version 4 I mentioned isn’t the latest version. Version 5 is being rolled out and is already available for the northern part of the country. But for now, let’s focus on version 4.
In the previous post, I presented some steps to download the AHN for a specific area and import it in GRASS GIS. Downloading was easy using the r.in.wcs addon. However, a few extra steps were required to ensure the imported data would align with the extent and resolution of the original AHN data.
Easy, but why not make it easier yet? So, as it was a rainy day anyway, I used the code presented earlier and wrapped it up in the addon r.in.ahn. Let’s see how to download the DTM for the Land van Cuijk again, but this time using the new addon.
©
Download the DTM for a selected areaNote that this addon only works in locations with the coordinate reference system RD New (EPSG 28992). This is that the CRS of the original data, and the addon is meant to ensure you download the data as it is. This is akin to how the
r.in.gdal
import function works. If you want to import and reproject the data on the fly (similar to ther.import
function), you can use ther.in.wcs
addon.This example shows the steps to download the 0.5-meter resolution DTM for the Land van Cuijk. You’ll need to install the r.in.wcs and r.in.ahn addons 1 2.
Install the required addons.
First step is to import the Python libraries. Note, this will not be repeated with the next scripts.
import grass.script as gs
Now, you can install the two addons using the g.extension function.
gs.run_command("g.extension", extension="r.in.wcs") gs.run_command("g.extension", extension="r.in.ahn")
Install the two addons using the g.extension function.
g.extension extension=r.in.wcs g.extension extension=r.in.ahn
You need the
g.extension
function to install addons. In the main menu, go toSettings > Addons extension > Install extension from addon
. Alternatively, type ing.extension
on the command line. The example below is forr.in.wcs
. Repeat this step forr.in.ahn
.Figure 1: The g.extension function, started from the command line. Figure 1: The g.extension function, started from the command line.
Now, download the administrative boundaries of the Dutch municipalities, and extract the boundaries of the “Land van Cuijk”.
Download layer with administrative boundaries of the neighborhood.
gs.run_command( "v.in.wfs", url="https://service.pdok.nl/cbs/wijkenbuurten/2022/wfs/v1_0?", output="municipalities", name="gemeenten", )
Next, extract the boundaries of the municipality of “Land van Cuijk”
gs.run_command( "v.extract", input="municipalities", where="naam = 'Land van Cuijk'", output="LandvanCuijk", )
Get the vector layer with the boundaries of the municipality.
v.in.wfs url="https://service.pdok.nl/cbs/wijkenbuurten/2022/wfs/v1_0?" \ output=municipalities name=gemeenten
Next, extract the boundaries of the municipality of “Land van Cuijk”
v.extract input=municipalities where="naam = 'Land van Cuijk'" \ output="LandvanCuijk"
Type in
v.in.wfs
on the command line or in the console. You can also find the function undermain menu > File > Import vector data
. This opens the following screen (you need to fill in parameters in two tabs):Figure 2: Download the vector layer with the municipality boundaries. Define the base URL and the name of the output layer. Figure 2: Download the vector layer with the municipality boundaries. Define the base URL and the name of the output layer.

Figure 5: Extract the boundaries of the municipality of Land van Cuijk. Fill in the query, which defines which features you want to select and save. Tip: Use the convenient query builder.
Now, set the region to match the extent of the municipality. Note, you do not need to be concerned with the resolution;
r.in.ahn
will adjust the resolution and extent to make sure the imported data aligns perfectly with the original AHN data. This is done by setting the resolution to 0.5 meters and subsequently extending the region’s extent until it aligns with the original AHN data layer.Set the region to match the vector layer LandvanCuijk.
gs.run_command("g.region", vector="LandvanCuijk")
Get the vector layer with the boundaries of the municipality.
g.region vector=LandvanCuijk
Type in
g.region
on the command line or console, or open the function’s window viamenu | Settings | Computational region | Set region
.Figure 6: Set the region to match the extent of the vector layer LandvanCuijk. Figure 6: Set the region to match the extent of the vector layer LandvanCuijk.
Now, you can run the
r.in.ahn
function to import the layer. Note that by default, the addon will change the region you just defined. It will set the resolution to 0.5 meters (this is the resolution of the AHN data you are about to download). It will furthermore expand the extent so that it aligns perfectly with the AHN data.Import the DTM using the
r.in.ahn
function.gs.run_command("r.in.ahn", product="dtm", output="dtm_05")
Get the vector layer with the boundaries of the municipality.
r.in.ahn product=dtm output=dtm_05
Type in
r.in.ahn
on the command line or console. A third way is shown in the image below. Open theTools tab
and go toAddons
. The function should be available there.Figure 7: Open the r.in.ahn plugin, select the product to download (dtm or dsm) and provide the output layer name. Figure 7: Open the r.in.ahn plugin, select the product to download (dtm or dsm) and provide the output layer name. Download whole tiles
If you set the
-t flag
, the function will import the DTM or DSM for all 6.5×5 km AHN tiles that overlap with the current region. In addition, a vector polygon layer will be created with the tile boundaries.Define the region for which you want to download the data, and import the DSM using the
r.in.ahn
function. Set the -t flag to download the DTM for the area covered by the tiles that overlap with the region.# Set the region gs.run_command("g.region", n=412572, s=411280, w=188911, e=190085) # Import the tile(s) that include the selected region gs.run_command("r.in.ahn", product="dtm", flags="t", output="dtm_05_subset")
# Set the region g.region n=412572 s=411280 w=188911 e=190085) # Import the tile(s) that include the selected region r.in.ahn -t product=dtm output=dtm_05_subset)
Open the
g.region
addon by typing g.region on the command line, in the console, or using the menu. Fill in the northern, southern, western, and eastern limits of the area for which you want to download the data.Figure 8: Set the region bounds. Figure 8: Set the region bounds.
Type in
r.in.ahn
on the command line or console. Or go to theTools tab
and go toAddons
. The function should be available there. Fill in the required fields, like in the previous examples. Next, go to theOptional
tab and selectDownload whole tiles
.Figure 9: Open the r.in.ahn plugin, select the product to download (DTM or DSM) and provide the output layer name. Figure 9: Open the r.in.ahn plugin, select the product to download (DTM or DSM) and provide the output layer name.
The extent of the imported layer covers the 6.5×5 km AHN tile. In addition to the raster layer, you’ll have a vector layer with the boundary of the downloaded tile(s). This vector layer has the same name but with the suffix *_tiles*.
You should be aware that running the function will adjust the computational region so that it aligns with the imported data. You can avoid this by setting the -g flag, as illustrated in Figure 10.
Figure 10: A: The downloaded 6.5 x 5 km AHN tiles that intersect with the user-defined region, here indicated by the orange outline. In addition, a vector layer with the boundaries of the tiles is created. The red outline shows the adjusted region extent after running the function. The blue outlines show the boundaries of the downloaded tiles. B: The same, but with the -g flag set. With this flag set, the user-defined region (red outline) will not be altered .

You are expected to be familiar with GRASS GIS and the concept of region used in GRASS GIS. If you are new to GRASS GIS, you are warmly recommended to first check out the GRASS GIS Quickstart and the explanation about the GRASS GIS database.??
Downloading the DTM for the whole municipality will take a while. If you want to speed things up, you can work with a smaller area by using your own vector data.??

sur Jackie Ng: Avalonia UI Test Drive
Publié: 22 March 2024, 9:40am CET
As the title implies, this blog post is about my experience test driving Avalonia UI.
So why am I doing this?
I've been getting growing questions lately about whether MapGuide Maestro works on Linux via Mono.
Sadly I no longer emphasize anything regarding Mono compatibility because.
- WinForms support (in legacy .net Framework 4.x) on Mono is pretty much a hack.
- And since we've moved away from legacy .net Framework to .net 6.0, the combination of WinForms + .net 6.0 is probably an unsupported combination (you don't use Mono to run .net core/5.0+ applications, you use Microsoft's official SDK/runtime). I'm also not too keen to waste time and resources to test and find out.
And in terms of .net multi-platform UI frameworks, there's only one logical choice: Avalonia UI
While it is not in my immediate plans to rewrite MapGuide Maestro's UI in Avalonia, I wanted to at least explore the feasibility of building such a UI even if all the actual functionality is mocked up, just to see how easy or difficult the whole process is.
Hence the motivation for this post.
So why Avalonia?
Avalonia is effectively the "spiritual successor" to WPF, and adopts most of the same patterns and practices when building UIs for Avalonia.
I had first heard about Avalonia when it was formerly known as Perspex and at the time, from the screenshots of example Perspex applications on Windows and non-Windows platforms, it was clear at that point in time the range of possible applications one can build with Perspex was quite limited and building an application like Maestro on top of Perspex was not feasible.
Just recently, I had heard about the framework now known as Avalonia again and this time round there was a lot more positive buzz around it, so I gave it another look and was much more impressed at its capabilities and richer suite of UI controls to build applications with.
Our objectiveMy objective with this Avalonia learning exercise was to build a minimal multi-document interface skeleton application, mimicking the primary functionality (UI-wise) of MapGuide Maestro.
- Being able to present a login UI to connect to a MapGuide Server
- Present MapGuide Server resources in a tree view
- Open resources in a region of tabbed editor panels and being able to close them.
If this kind of UI looks familiar, yes it's basically the UI for tools like:
- Visual Studio Code
- Azure Data Studio
- Azure Storage Explorer
- any many others like them!
The benefit of such a UI, is that it doesn't require an explicit VS-style window docking control like I have for the current WinForms-based MapGuide Maestro. I can already see the controls needed to build such a UIAny UI toolkit worth its salt should to able to provide these basic controls.
This is a proof-of-concept, so we won't be using the existing Maestro API to talk to actual MapGuide Servers. Instead such functionality will be mocked up for this application. The main purpose of this exercise is to see if Avalonia provides enough of the base UI elements to build a hypothetical version of MapGuide Maestro on top of.
It turns out this exercise was fraught with several challengesChallenge #1: Getting familiar with Avalonia conceptsThe first challenge was simply getting familiar with Avalonia concepts. Being someone who did .net desktop app development primarily in Windows Forms, I skipped over WPF, and its XAML-based variants/successors like Silverlight, Xamarin Forms, UWP, and MAUI, and Avalonia being a "spiritual successor" to WPF meant that I didn't have a potential conceptual head start on Avalonia that one might have if they already had experience with WPF and its XAML-based derivatives.
However, I was familiar with the MVVM pattern and data-binding, which is used heavily in Avalonia. I already had experience in knockout.js building/maintaining some of our web apps in my day job, and these concepts learned from knockout.js mostly translate cleanly 1:1 to Avalonia.
The other Avalonia concepts I'll have to figure out as we go along.
Challenge #2: WebAssembly (WASM) supportBefore I begin, I must take the MapGuide-knowledgable readers of this post back in time, way back to when MapGuide Open Source 1.0 was released.
Do you remember how this new (at the time), re-invented version of MapGuide was released, but the only authoring option at the time was to buy a license of Autodesk MapGuide Studio? Not a pretty look if you are offering a free and open source web map GIS server, but the authoring tools are not?
Some members of the MapGuide community were aware of this glaring discrepancy and created a web-based equivalent of MapGuide Studio called Web Studio built fully with HTML/JS/CSS. Unfortunately, Web Studio was really bare-bones in terms of authoring capabilities and the code being written in the pre-historic era of javascript (this was circa 2006-2007) which did not make it conductive to external contribution. React, TypeScript and friends weren't around then, so trying to enhance Web Studio with new features was extremely challenging. I once tried to add at least a generic XML text editor fallback for Web Studio so you had something to edit various resources where Web Studio did not provide a dedicated editor UI for, but alas this was just too challenging for me and I gave up on such an idea.
But eventually another user of the MapGuide community solved this problem more directly by developing and releasing a v1.0 of a windows .net desktop application that you all know as MapGuide Maestro. As an aside, I am not the original author of MapGuide Maestro in case you're wondering, I merely took over development and maintenance of Maestro from the 2.1 release onwards.
Anyways, back to the topic at hand, when I created the new Avalonia application with the provided project template, I was most surprised to see that the generated solution came with a project that compiled to WebAssembly (WASM) that was ready to run in your web browser!
This was a mind-blowing revelation for me from a conceptual standpoint. It means our hypothetical MapGuide Maestro built on Avalonia could not only exist as a regular desktop application, but the WASM build of this application could be dropped in the the wwwroot of a MapGuide Web tier installation and you would now have a modern version of Web Studio, but much more powerful and capable, because it is just MapGuide Maestro ... now in your web browser!
Since our starter project template includes a functioning WASM browser target. I now had a strong incentive to keep this target active and working, because the prospect of being able to run MapGuide Maestro in a web browser is a very tempting proposition. Therefore, the choice of libraries and APIs I use is constrained by my new requirement of being able to work in a browser/WASM environment.
For example, I originally wanted to use MVVMDialogs to simplify working with dialogs (Maestro has lots of dialogs, so I figure such a library could be useful), but I couldn't get this library to work in a WASM environment with some of my testing dialogs, so this was a no-go. Since this was just a proof-of-concept, there wasn't a need to have working dialog system, but it does mean if this were to go beyond a proof-of-concept and into an actual application where we will inevitably have to present a dialog of some sort, I'd have to come with a paradigm that can work in both desktop and browsers.
Another problem with this WASM target is that I can't seem to debug it in Visual Studio. You can launch the WASM target in the debugger and spawn a new browser window to launch your app, but any breakpoints you stick in your C# code are not being hit. I'm not sure if this a shortcoming or a broken feature, but it is somewhat concerning if we were to go full steam ahead with support WASM as a compilation/deployment target.Challenge #3: "Large scale" MVVMAlthough I already knew the MVVM pattern from knockout.js, my scope of usage was mostly limited to using knockout.js to building "islands" of interactive client-side content on primarily server-generated web pages. So I didn't really have an idea of how to apply such a pattern on a full blown Single Page Application (SPA), which is pretty much what we're trying to achieve (conceptually) in Avalonia. By the time I was building SPAs proper, I had moved on the popular stuff like React, which is how I gained the knowledge needed to build a modern replacement map viewer for MapGuide and my usage of knockout.js fell by the wayside as a result, so I never figured out the answer for how to do large scale MVVM.
The main problem was that in a large scale MVVM, how do view models communicate with each other without a tight parent-child coupling?
I deduced that for starters, we definitely need to use dependency injection. Various view models will need to access different services and if we had a root view model with explicit nested child view models (each with their own service requirements), it would be an absolute pain to have to setup these various view models. Using a DI container means we can offload this concern to it and we can focus on just asking the DI container for a particular view model and it will setup all the required services for it for us provided we register everything properly with the DI container.
For better WASM support, I wanted a dependency injection container that is not driven by reflection to make the code more friendlier to app trimming. We want to be able to app trim on publish so that we can eliminate unused code and reduce the final binary size. This is most desirable for the WASM target as app trimming means smaller binaries, which means smaller payloads to download in a web browser. StrongInject was chosen for this reason as it was a "compile-time" DI container that can verify all your dependencies are registered properly before running the application through the magic of source generators, generating all the necessary registration and validation code for you.
Finally, to be able to communicate between view models without necessary parent-child coupling, the messenger facility of the MVVM toolkit can be used. With this messenger facility, we simply:- Have select view models be recipients of certain messages
- Have our application services (that various view model commands call) send these messages.
- Relevant recipients get notified and update themselves (and their bound UIs) accordingly as a result.
The reason is because the tab content we want to show is not homogenous. One open editor tab could be for a layer, one for a map, one for a feature source, etc, etc. So we need to be able to show different tabs on the same tab control.
Avalonia documentation is pretty scant on this topic. All examples I found assume homogenous series of tab content, which is not our case.
Just for laughs, since AI has been hyped for soon taking away everyone's jobs (even us devs), I figured I'd ask huggingface chat (as a guest), how would you solve this problem?
Unfortunately, the provided code sample does not work out of the box. It clearly assumed Avalonia = WPF and gave me a WPF-based solution. The giveaway was the Avalonia TabControl does not have an ItemTemplateSelector, but the WPF TabControl does.
But Avalonia sharing many conceptual similarities with WPF meant that although the answer provided wasn't correct, parts of the answer were applicable and did lead me down to further avenues of inquiry and eventually I found the solution: It was to define a data template for every possible derived tab view model class in the same UserControl where the TabControl was specified.Final challenge: Avalonia VS designerThis wasn't so much a challenge, rather an annoyance. The Avalonia designer in Visual Studio has some teething issues- Intellisense/autocomplete is somewhat flaky when writing binding expressions and when you're doing a lot of data-binding, having the editor giving you and incomplete or outdated list of properties you can bind to becomes annoying. A full project build generally fixes this, but it is annoying having to do this every time I add new observable properties or commands to an existing view model class.
- It's also not rename-aware, so observable property or command renames will result in stale binding expressions, causing havoc with the designer and have to be manually fixed up in the XAML. Choose your observable property names wisely I suppose, because renaming them afterwards is painful.
And if these screenshots don't convince you, thanks to being able to deploy as a WASM target, I deployed a copy to GitHub pages, so you can see this app for yourself right in your WASM-enabled web browser!
The source code for this app can be found here. One day this may form the basis of a new (true) multi-platform version of MapGuide Maestro, but for now this lies as a potentially useful starting point for building a tabbed-multi-document editor application with Avalonia.
So what did I think of Avalonia from this little experiment?- I like it mostly. My pre-existing experience on knockout.js helped greatly with picking up MVVM and data-binding. My initial prediction of a VSCode-style UI layout being buildable turned out to be true.
- I like the default (project template provided) choice of MVVM Toolkit for applying the MVVM pattern. I like their heavy use of source generators to make adding new observable properties and commands to a view model being a simple case of tacking [ObservableProperty] on a field or tacking [RelayCommand] to a private method and having the source generator generate all of the boilerplate code for you (and it's a lot of boilerplate!).
- The revelation that Avalonia has a WASM deployment target was both exciting and "cramping my style". It meant that certain libraries I wanted to use (eg. The MVVM dialogs library) could not be used and it wasn't clear what would work in a WASM browser environment and what wouldn't. Which leads to ...
- Documentation is lacking in some areas. What really stumped me for a while was how do a TabControl bound to a collection of polymorphic or heterogenous tab view models. Their provided examples completely failed to tell me how to do this. I suppose if I came into this with existing WPF experience, this wouldn't have been so difficult as most of the concepts and patterns seem to be mostly transferable, but I happened to have skipped WPF and its bajillion XAML-based derivatives, so I didn't have this pre-existing knowledge to fall back on. Through perseverance and looking at the source code for many existing Avalonia applications on GitHub, I was finally able to determine that data templates was the solution.
Now I better get back onto this MapGuide/FDO work. -
sur GIScussions: Your Map Inside
Publié: 21 March 2024, 5:47pm CET
A few weeks ago I recorded a Geomob Podcast with Ana Lucía González Paz about her beautiful flipbook, A Map Inside. You can read the book in a few minutes and then you can listen to the podcast
[https:]]Towards the end of each podcast, I give my guest the opportunity to go off piste and talk about a subject that they choose (in the past we have talked about digital privacy, mental health and open source sustainability to mention just a few). Ana said that she would like to ask me to describe my Map Inside and you can hear how I replied at the end of the podcast.
After we recorded the podcast, I was chatting with Ana and we thought that it would be fun to get other people to share their Map Inside. Everyone has a Map Inside connected to memories, people, special moments, would you like to share yours? Just record a short audio clip in mp3 format running for 60 to 120 seconds and mail it to me (if you don’t know my email use the Contact Form to reach me or find me at Mastodon). Assuming we get a few responses, Ana and I will put together an episode of the podcast with a selection of your Maps Inside.
Hope to hear from you with your Map Inside

Earlier this week an episode of the Geomob Podcast was published where Steven Feldman interviews yours truly. It was a lot of fun to chat with Steven about Elastic, my experience in the geospatial industry, and Open Source in general. I could also advocate a bit about data privacy and digital identity which is a topic that has picked my interest even more lately with all the shit that is hitting that social network we all know about.
If you want to learn a bit about Elastic and Geo this is maybe a good opportunity to get a condensed gist of why would anyone want to store and analyze geospatial data in Elasticsearch, a few compelling use cases and so on.
Cheers!

sur CityBuilder : faciliter la reconstruction 3D
Publié: 19 March 2024, 2:43pm CET par Bertrand Parpoil
ContexteOslandia participe aux côtés d’Eviden au projet CP4SC, mené dans le cadre de l’AMI Cloud lancé en 2021 par la Banque Publique d’Investissement.
Le sigle CP4SC signifie Cloud Platform for Sustainable Cities et son objectif est d’aider les gouvernements à mettre en œuvre des politiques ambitieuses vers l’atteinte de la neutralité carbone par ingestion des données issues de différentes sources comme la mobilité, la gestion de l’énergie ou l’observation de la terre et de l’environnement
De quoi s’agit-il ?
La visualisation 3D de bâtiments est un attendu de nombreux acteurs de la planification urbaine, attendu qui se heurte à deux écueils :
- les données 3D structurées à grande échelle sont peu nombreuses
- il n’existe pas de solution logicielle mature permettant de travailler à grande échelle, même si certains éditeurs proposent des outils propriétaires capables de travailler à l’échelle des bâtiments
Cependant, la disponibilité et la diffusion de nuages de points de grande taille, prend beaucoup d’ampleur ces dernières années : les méthodes et outils de levés terrain ont beaucoup évolué et de nombreux acteurs en ont profité pour acquérir des nuages de points (y compris à l’échelle nationale comme c’est le cas en France avec la couverture Lidar en cours de constitution par l’IGN).
Mais si les nuages de points peuvent être acquis rapidement, ils ne sont pas immédiatement exploitables pour tous les types d’analyse.
L’objectif d’Oslandia à travers le projet est donc de proposer une chaine industrielle de traitement permettant de créer des données structurées depuis des nuages de points, ainsi que des logiciels permettant d’exploiter ces informations, l’ensemble sous licence opensource à gouvernance ouverte bien entendu !
Nous avons déja présenté ici les outils Giro3D et Piero qui permettent la visualisation des données spatiales 3D. Nous allons maintenant parler génération de CityJSON !
CityBuilder
Parmi les différentes actions menées par Oslandia dans le cadre du projet, CityBuilder simplifie la reconstruction de données 3D géoréférencées. Notre objectif dans un premier temps est de proposer un plugin QGIS pour faciliter l’accès des utilisateurs aux fonctionnalités des outils sous-jacents.
En effet CityBuilder exploite :
- la bibliothèque opensource geoflow, développée par l’université de Delft et la société 3DGI. Geoflow a notamment été utilisé pour générer le bâti 3D de l’ensemble des Pays-Bas
- la cartographie du sol et sursol LIDAR produite par l’IGN
- les fonctionnalités de visualisation 3D de QGIS
Concernant la démarche projet, nous avons travaillé initialement sur la première version prototypale de CityBuilder conjointement à un projet de développement informatique (PDI), séquence des cycles Master1 Géomatique et Ingénieur (2e année) de l’ENSG mené en partenariat avec Oslandia.
En 2024 les travaux ont constitué en amélioration du plugin afin d’utiliser au maximum les outils natifs à QGIS, optimiser ses performances et réduire sa dette technique. Nous avons également intégré une version du code utilisable en ligne de commande.
Geoflow a donc été intégré dans un processing QGIS intégré à la barre d’outils de processing QGIS.
Geoflow permet de générer un fichier de sortie JSON à partir d’un fichier de données de nuage de point et un autre de données d’emprise de bâtiments. Nous utilisons la dernière version de geoflow permettant d’avoir un niveau de detail (LOD Level of Detail) allant jusqu’au LOD2.2.
Pour la version ubuntu l’image docker de geoflow utilisé est celle de l’IGN.
Des données 3D, et maintenant ?La visualisation des données générées peut se faire directement dans QGIS. Ceci est notamment possible grâce aux travaux menés sur le sujet par Oslandia depuis deux ans, qui consistent en une reprise de la dette technique embarquée, l’ajout de tests, des correctifs d’anomalies et le développement de nombreuses fonctionnalités bas niveau qui permettent aujourd’hui de disposer d’une version bien plus stable de QGIS 3D.
Le projet CP4SC étant cloud native, il s’appuie sur Giro3D et son application de visualisation, Piero pour afficher l’ensemble des données spatiales y compris 3D : les données urbaines reconstruites peuvent donc être aussi consultées sur le web.

sur [Témoignage Client] Pierrick Yalamas, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes Énergie Environnement – TerriSTORY®
Publié: 19 March 2024, 7:00am CET par Caroline Chanlon
Pierrick Yalamas est Directeur intelligence territoriale et observatoires à Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes Énergie Environnement. Initiateur et coordinateur au niveau national du consortium TerriSTORY®, portant l’outil d’aide au pilotage de la transition écologique et énergétique du même nom, il pilote l’équipe de l’agence régionale AURA-EE qui travaille sur le projet. Il revient sur les enjeux du projet ainsi que la collaboration avec les équipes d’Oslandia qui ont travaillé sur les volets techniques et fonctionnels dès 2018.
A quels enjeux répond ce projet ?En tant qu’Agence régionale, nous sommes opérateurs depuis une vingtaine d’années d’Observatoires copilotés par l’Etat et la Région. Notre mission : collecter, produire, traiter et diffuser des données sur le climat, l’énergie, les déchets, les ressources, … afin de les mettre à disposition des territoires pour les accompagner sur les enjeux écologiques.
Avant TerriSTORY®, nous disposions de tableaux et documents mis en forme qui s’avéraient insuffisants pour aider les territoires à passer à l’action.Avec TerriSTORY®, nous disposons aujourd’hui d’un véritable outil d’aide à la décision qui permet de :
- Rendre les données plus appropriables, grâce aux technologies de datavisualisation, à des personnes non initiées aux enjeux énergies / climat, notamment les élus et décideurs du territoire.
- Repositionner la transition écologique dans des enjeux de transition territoriale plus globale grâce au croisement de données sur l’énergie avec des données sur les mobilités, les ressources, les bâtiments, … Nous proposons aujourd’hui une approche systémique.
- Donner les clés permettant de construire une trajectoire et établir des scénarios pour mesurer les différents impacts en termes énergétique, carbone, mais aussi économique ou sur la qualité de l’air.
- Proposer des outils de pilotage des trajectoires et permettre un pilotage coordonné, dans une logique d’articulation entre les différents territoires.
L’outil a été initié en Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes et nous avons proposé à d’autres Régions de mutualiser les développements. Il est aujourd’hui mis à disposition de tous dans 6 régions qui ont accès au module dataviz mais aussi au module « Stratégie territoriale » pour aider au pilotage de la trajectoire.
Comment s’est passée la collaboration avec les équipes d’Oslandia ?La collaboration s’est très bien passée. Nous avons travaillé en mode très agile avec la contrainte d’un budget limité au départ. Nous avons instauré une relation de confiance au cours de laquelle Oslandia a initié les développements et a formé nos équipes en interne pour qu’elles s’approprient les technologies. J’ai apprécié que cela se passe en totale coopération. Oslandia nous a également fait bénéficier de son expérience pour préparer le passage en open-source qui a eu lieu début 2023.

The use of the CVE system allows the GeoServer team to reach a wider audience than blog posts. See the project security policy for more information on how security vulnerabilities are managed.
Upgrade NotesWe have a number of configuration changes when updating an existing system:
-
The longstanding
ENTITY_RESOLUTION_ALLOWLIST
setting has been recommended as a way to control the locations available for external entity resolution when parsing XML documents and requests.The default has changed from
*
(allowing any location) to allowing the recommendedwww.w3.org
,schemas.opengis.net
,www.opengis.net
locations used for OGC Web Services, along with theinspire.ec.europa.eu/schemas
location used by our friends in Europe. -
The FreeMarker Template HTML Auto-escaping is now enabled by default.
-
The spring security firewall is now enabled by default.
-
A new configuration setting is available to limit content served from the
geoserver/www
folder.If you have not met the
www
folder before it is used to share content, and there is a tutorial serving static files. -
We do add recommendations to production considerations over time, if you have not checked that page in a while please review.
Thanks to Steve Ikeoka and Jody Garnett for these improvements.
JTS fast polygon intersection enabled by defaultThe JTS Next Generation polygon intersection algorithm has been enabled by default, which will improve performance of a number of operations, including WPS processes and the vector tiles generation. We deem the functionality well tested enough that it should be opened to the majority of users, even if it’s still possible to turn it off by adding the
-Djts.overlay=old
.
MapML ExtensionThe MapML extension is receiving a number of updates and improvements, with more to come in the following months. It’s now possible to declare “Tiled CRS” as the CRS for a layer, with the implication not just of the CRS, but also of the gridset that will be used by the MapML viewer:
This portion builds on top of the work done months ago to support astronomical CRSs, which allows GeoServer to support multiple CRS authorities.
The MapML preview links are now using the new MapML output format, while the old dedicated REST controller has been removed. This allows for better integration of the MapML format in the GeoServer ecosystem. The MapML viewer has also been updated to the latest version:
Thanks to Joseph Miller and Andrea Aime (GeoSolutions) for this work, and Natural Resources Canada for sponsoring it.
Community Module UpdatesMuch of the new activity in GeoServer starts as a community module. We’d like to remind you that these modules are not yet supported, and invite you to join the effort by participating in their development, as well as testing them and providing feedback.
Raster Attribute Table community moduleDeveloped as part of GEOS-11175, the Raster Attribute Table community module uses the GDAL Raster Attribute Table (RAT) to provide a way to associate attribute information for individual pixel values within the raster, to create styles as well as to provide a richer GetFeatureInfo output.
For more information see the user guide.
We’d like to thank Andrea Aime (GeoSolutions) for the development and NOAA for sponsoring.
Graticules for WMS mapsThe graticules community module, developed as part of GEOS-11216, provides a datastore generating graticules for WMS maps, along with a rendering transformation that can be used to label them. The module can be used to draw a graticule in WMS maps, as well as to download them as part of WFS (or in combination with the WPS download module).
We’d like to thank Ian Turton for development and GeoSolutions for sponsoring the work.
GeoServer monitor Kafka storageThe monitoring Kafka storage module, developed as part of GEOS-11150, allows storing the requests captured by the monitoring extension into a Kafka topic.
We’d like to thank Simon Hofer for sharing his work with the community. To learn more about the module, how to install and use it, see the user-guide.
JWT HeadersThe JWT headers module has been developed as part of GEOS-11317.
The module is a new authentication filter that can read JWT Headers, as well as general JSON payloads and simple strings, to identify a user, as well as to extract their roles. The combination of Apache mod_auth_openidc with geoserver-jwt-headers-plugin provides an alternative to using the geoserver-sec-oauth2-openid-connect-plugin plugin.
We’d like to thank David Blasby (GeoCat) for this work on this module.
Developer Updates ResourceStore / Paths API ChangeDevelopers should keep in mind some important maintenance work performed by Niels Charlier on the use absolute and relative paths in the
ResourceStore
. See the Developers Guide for more information.This does not affect end users.
Experimental Java 21 supportGeoServer, along with GeoTools and GeoWebCache, are now tested to build and pass tests with Java 21.
This is not yet an endorsement to run GeoServer in production with Java 21. We are looking ahead at the 2024 roadmap, and are making sure the basics are covered for the newer Java releases.

We would like to thank everyone who contributed to reporting, verifying and fixing the above vulnerabilities (see each CVE for appropriate credits). A special thank you to Steve Ikeoka for reporting most of the issues and doing the majority of the actual fixes.
The use of the CVE system allows the GeoServer team to reach a wider audience than blog posts. See the project security policy for more information on how security vulnerabilities are managed.
Upgrade NotesWe have a number of configuration changes when updating an existing system:
-
The longstanding
ENTITY_RESOLUTION_ALLOWLIST
setting has been recommended as a way to control the locations available for external entity resolution when parsing XML documents and requests.The default has changed from
*
(allowing any location) to allowing the recommendedwww.w3.org
,schemas.opengis.net
,www.opengis.net
locations used for OGC Web Services, along with theinspire.ec.europa.eu/schemas
location used by our friends in Europe. -
The FreeMarker Template HTML Auto-escaping is now enabled by default.
-
The spring security firewall is now enabled by default.
-
A new configuration setting is available to limit content served from the
geoserver/www
folder.If you have not met the
www
folder before it is used to share content, and there is a tutorial serving static files. -
We do add recommendations to production considerations over time, if you have not checked that page in a while please review.
Thanks to Steve Ikeoka and Jody Garnett for these improvements.
JTS fast polygon intersection enabled by defaultThe JTS Next Generation polygon intersection algorithm has been enabled by default, which will improve performance of a number of operations, including WPS processes and the vector tiles generation. We deem the functionality well tested enough that it should be opened to the majority of users, even if it’s still possible to turn it off by adding the
-Djts.overlay=old
.
MapML ExtensionThe MapML extension is receiving a number of updates and improvements, with more to come in the following months. It’s now possible to declare “Tiled CRS” as the CRS for a layer, with the implication not just of the CRS, but also of the gridset that will be used by the MapML viewer:
This portion builds on top of the work done months ago to support astronomical CRSs, which allows GeoServer to support multiple CRS authorities.
The MapML preview links are now using the new MapML output format, while the old dedicated REST controller has been removed. This allows for better integration of the MapML format in the GeoServer ecosystem. The MapML viewer has also been updated to the latest version:
Thanks to Joseph Miller and Andrea Aime (GeoSolutions) for this work, and Natural Resources Canada for sponsoring it.
Community Module UpdatesMuch of the new activity in GeoServer starts as a community module. We’d like to remind you that these modules are not yet supported, and invite you to join the effort by participating in their development, as well as testing them and providing feedback.
Raster Attribute Table community moduleDeveloped as part of GEOS-11175, the Raster Attribute Table community module uses the GDAL Raster Attribute Table (RAT) to provide a way to associate attribute information for individual pixel values within the raster, to create styles as well as to provide a richer GetFeatureInfo output.
For more information see the user guide.
We’d like to thank Andrea Aime (GeoSolutions) for the development and NOAA for sponsoring.
Graticules for WMS mapsThe graticules community module, developed as part of GEOS-11216, provides a datastore generating graticules for WMS maps, along with a rendering transformation that can be used to label them. The module can be used to draw a graticule in WMS maps, as well as to download them as part of WFS (or in combination with the WPS download module).
We’d like to thank Ian Turton for development and GeoSolutions for sponsoring the work.
GeoServer monitor Kafka storageThe monitoring Kafka storage module, developed as part of GEOS-11150, allows storing the requests captured by the monitoring extension into a Kafka topic.
We’d like to thank Simon Hofer for sharing his work with the community. To learn more about the module, how to install and use it, see the user-guide.
JWT HeadersThe JWT headers module has been developed as part of GEOS-11317.
The module is a new authentication filter that can read JWT Headers, as well as general JSON payloads and simple strings, to identify a user, as well as to extract their roles. The combination of Apache mod_auth_openidc with geoserver-jwt-headers-plugin provides an alternative to using the geoserver-sec-oauth2-openid-connect-plugin plugin.
We’d like to thank David Blasby (GeoCat) for this work on this module.
Developer Updates ResourceStore / Paths API ChangeDevelopers should keep in mind some important maintenance work performed by Niels Charlier on the use absolute and relative paths in the
ResourceStore
. See the Developers Guide for more information.This does not affect end users.
Experimental Java 21 supportGeoServer, along with GeoTools and GeoWebCache, are now tested to build and pass tests with Java 21.
This is not yet an endorsement to run GeoServer in production with Java 21. We are looking ahead at the 2024 roadmap, and are making sure the basics are covered for the newer Java releases.

sur Free and Open Source GIS Ramblings: Getting started with pygeoapi processes
Publié: 18 March 2024, 8:16pm CET
Today’s post is a quick introduction to pygeoapi, a Python server implementation of the OGC API suite of standards. OGC API provides many different standards but I’m particularly interested in OGC API – Processes which standardizes geospatial data processing functionality. pygeoapi implements this standard by providing a plugin architecture, thereby allowing developers to implement custom processing workflows in Python.
I’ll provide instructions for setting up and running pygeoapi on Windows using Powershell. The official docs show how to do this on Linux systems. The pygeoapi homepage prominently features instructions for installing the dev version. For first experiments, however, I’d recommend using a release version instead. So that’s what we’ll do here.
As a first step, lets install the latest release (0.16.1 at the time of writing) from conda-forge:
conda create -n pygeoapi python=3.10
conda activate pygeoapi
mamba install -c conda-forge pygeoapiNext, we’ll clone the GitHub repo to get the example config and datasets:
cd C:\Users\anita\Documents\GitHub\
git clone [https:]
cd pygeoapi\To finish the setup, we need some configurations:
cp pygeoapi-config.yml example-config.yml
# There is a known issue in pygeoapi 0.16.1: [https:]
# To fix it, edit the example-config.yml: uncomment the TinyDB option in the server settings (lines 51-54)
$Env:PYGEOAPI_CONFIG = "F:/Documents/GitHub/pygeoapi/example-config.yml"
$Env:PYGEOAPI_OPENAPI = "F:/Documents/GitHub/pygeoapi/example-openapi.yml"
pygeoapi openapi generate $Env:PYGEOAPI_CONFIG --output-file $Env:PYGEOAPI_OPENAPINow we can start the server:
pygeoapi serve
And once the server is running, we can send requests, e.g. the list of processes:
curl.exe [localhost:5000]
And, of course, execute the example “hello-world” process:
curl.exe --% -X POST [localhost:5000] -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d "{\"inputs\":{\"name\": \"hi there\"}}"
As you can see, writing JSON content for curl is a pain. Luckily, pyopenapi comes with a nice web GUI, including Swagger UI for playing with all the functionality, including the hello-world process:
It’s not really a geospatial hello-world example, but it’s a first step.
Finally, I wan’t to leave you with a teaser since there are more interesting things going on in this space, including work on OGC API – Moving Features as shared by the pygeoapi team recently:
So, stay tuned.

sur Ecodiv.earth: Download AHN data in GRASS GIS
Publié: 17 March 2024, 12:00am CET
The AHNThe ‘Actueel Hoogtebestand Nederland’ (AHN, version 4) is the latest digital elevation model (DEM) of the Netherlands. It includes a digital terrain model (DTM) and a digital surface model (DSM). The former represents the bare ground surface without any features such as buildings, vegetation, or other structures, while the latter includes these features.
Both layers can be downloaded at 0.5 or 5 meter resolution in tiles of 6.5 by 5 km. Downloading one tile, which is approximately 500 MB, is doable. However, if you need more tiles, the arguably easier way is to download the data using the WCS (Web Coverage Service) protocol, which allows you to choose what part of the available data to download based on spatial constraints.
Import the DTMThis example shows the steps to download the 0.5 meter resolutiom DTM for the Land van Cuijk, a municipality in which our research group Climate-robust Landscapes is carrying out several studies. The first step is to get the r.in.wcs addon. With this addon, you can use the WCS protocol to download data 1 2.
Install the r.in.wcs addon.
First step is to import the Python libraries. Note, this will not be repeated with the next scripts.
import grass.script as gs
Now, you can install the
r.in.wcs
addon using the g.extension function.gs.run_command("g.extension", extension="r.in.wcs")
You need the
The g.extension function, started from the command line.g.extension
function to install addons. In the main menu, go toSettings > Addons extension > Install extension from addon
. Alternatively, type ing.extension
on the command line. This will open the window shown below.The r.in.wcs addon imports the raster layers using the resolution and extent of the current region. A crucial step, therefore, is to set the extent and resolution of the region so that it aligns perfectly with that of the AHN layer.
Set the extent and resolution to match those of the AHN.
gs.run_command("g.region", n=618750, s=306250, w=10000, e=280000, res=0.5)
Type in
Set the bounds Set the resolutiong.region
on the command line or in the console. You can also find the function undermain menu > Settings > Computational region > set region
. This opens the following screen:With this settings, you align the region with the AHN data set.
Next, download the administrative boundaries of the Dutch municipalities, and extract the boundaries of the “Land van Cuijk”.
Download layer with administrative boundaries of the neighborhood.
gs.run_command( "v.in.wfs", url="https://service.pdok.nl/cbs/wijkenbuurten/2022/wfs/v1_0?", output="municipalities", name="gemeenten", )
Next, extract the boundaries of the municipality of “Land van Cuijk”
gs.run_command( "v.extract", input="municipalities", where="naam = 'Land van Cuijk'", output="LandvanCuijk", )
Type in
Download the vector layer with the municipality boundaries. Define the base URL and the name of the output layer. Download the vector layer with the municipality boundaries. Fill in the name of the WFS layer to download. Extract the boundaries of the municipality of Land van Cuijk. Select the name of the vector layer with municipalities and give the name of the output layer. Extract the boundaries of the municipality of Land van Cuijk. Fill in the query, which defines which features you want to select and save. Tip: Use the convenient query builder.v.in.wfs
on the command line or in the console. You can also find the function undermain menu > File > Import vector data
. This opens the following screen (you need to fill in parameters in two tabs):Now, you can set the region to match the extent of the vector layer, while taking care that the region aligns perfectly with the DTM.
Set the region to the correct extent and resolution.
First, get the north, south, east, and west coordinates of the bounding box of the vector layer and of the region’s extent.
region_tiles = gs.parse_command("g.region", flags="gu") region_munic = gs.parse_command("v.info", flags="g", map="LandvanCuijk")
Now, adjust the northern boundary of the bounding box of the vector layer so that it aligns with the AHN tiles.
from math import floor n = float(region_tiles["n"]) - floor( (float(region_tiles["n"]) - float(region_munic["north"])) ) s = float(region_tiles["s"]) + floor( (float(region_munic["south"]) - float(region_tiles["s"])) ) w = float(region_tiles["w"]) + floor( (float(region_munic["west"]) - float(region_tiles["w"])) ) e = float(region_tiles["e"]) - floor( (float(region_tiles["e"]) - float(region_munic["east"])) ) gs.run_command("g.region", n=n, s=s, e=e, w=w)
And finally, import the DTM layer. Warming, this may take some time.
Import the DTM for the defined region.
gs.run_command( "r.in.wcs", url="https://service.pdok.nl/rws/ahn/wcs/v1_0?", coverage="dtm_05m", urlparams="GetMetadata", output="dtm_05", )
The maximum floating-point value (
3.4028235e+38
) is not recognized as a NULL value. So use thesetnull
parameter in the r.null function to specify that this value has to be set to NULL.gs.run_command("r.null", map="dtm_05", setnull=3.4028235e+38)
If this does not work (it didn’t for me), you can use the r.mapcalc function to set this value to NULL.
Fill in the WCS service URL Get the overage name to requestgs.run_command("r.mapcalc", expression="dtm_05m = if(dtm_05m > 1000,null(),dtm_05m)", overwrite=True)
To make it a bit easier, I combined steps 2, 4, and 5 in a new addon r.in.ahn. It is a bit rough around the edges (it only works in a Location with CRS RD New), but it serves its goal. I have submitted it to the GRASS GIS addon repository, so I hope it will be available in a week or so.
FootnotesYou are expected to be familiar with GRASS GIS and the concept of region used in GRASS GIS. If you are new to GRASS GIS, you are warmly recommended to first check out the GRASS GIS Quickstart and the explanation about the GRASS GIS database.??
Downloading the DTM for the whole municipality will take a while. If you want to speed up things, you can work with a smaller area by using your own vector data.??

sur Fernando Quadro: Raster no PostGIS, vale a pena?
Publié: 14 March 2024, 1:00pm CET
Você sabe quais os benefícios e as armadilhas de colocar arquivos rasters em um banco de dados relacional?
A maioria das pessoas pensa que “colocar em um banco de dados” é uma receita mágica para: desempenho mais rápido, escalabilidade infinita e gerenciamento fácil.
Se você pensar que o banco de dados está substituindo uma pilha de arquivos CSV, isso provavelmente é verdade.
Porém quando o banco de dados está substituindo uma coleção de arquivos de imagens GeoTIFF, isso provavelmente é falso. O raster no banco de dados será mais lento, ocupará mais espaço e será muito chato de gerenciar.
Então, por que fazer isso? Comece com um padrão, “não!”, e então avalie a partir daí.
Para alguns dados raster não visuais e casos de uso que envolvem o enriquecimento de vetores de fontes raster, ter o raster colocalizado com os vetores no banco de dados pode tornar o trabalho com ele mais conveniente. Porém, ainda será mais lento que o acesso direto e ainda será difícil de gerenciar, mas permite o uso de SQL como uma linguagem de consulta, o que pode oferecer muito mais flexibilidade para explorar o espaço da solução do que um script de acesso a dados criado especificamente para esse fim.

Piero est une application web basée sur Giro3D et offrant des fonctionnalités de visualisation 3D de données géoréférencées, qu’elles viennent du monde BIM ou du monde SIG, de façon intégrée et ergonomique.
Prête à l’emploi, Piero est disponible en démonstration à l’adresse suivante :
[https:]]Des exemples de données sont pré-chargés, libres à vous de glisser-déposer vos données pour démarrer sans une seule ligne de code !
HistoriqueGiro3D est une bibliothèque logicielle permettant la visualisation et manipulation de données 2D, 2.5D et 3D cartographiques, directement dans le navigateur. Cette bibliothèque peut être intégrée dans n’importe quelle application web, ce qui la rend très versatile. On vous a notamment récemment parlé de LiDAR et de WebGL, deux technologies mises à profit dans Giro3D.
Giro3D, en tant que bibliothèque, est dédiée aux développeurs et nécessite en contrepartie des efforts d’intégration. Afin de proposer d’adresser des cas d’utilisation plus larges, et également de montrer les fonctionnalités de Giro3D, Oslandia a développé une application complète mettant à profit les fonctionnalités de Giro3D, avec une interface utilisateur ergonomique, et proposant également des fonctionnalités avancées en terme de visualisation et d’analyse.
Cette application, baptisée Piero, est aujourd’hui assez mature pour servir d’application Web clé en main. Tirant profit de Giro3D et du moteur 3D THREE.js pour fusionner les mondes SIG et BIM, Piero fournit une application complète reposant sur Vue.js. De la même façon que Giro3D, Piero est libre et open-source, et son code source est disponible sur la plateforme GitLab sous license MIT.
Formats de donnéesEn plus des types nativement supportés par Giro3D, Piero couvre un large éventail de formats, allant du plus basique nuage de points CSV au très détaillé modèle IFC, en passant par CityJSON, GeoPackage, Shapefile, etc. Elle supporte également les webservices OGC.
La liste complète est disponible sur la page du projet. Nous ajoutons le support de nouveaux formats en continu selon les besoins : si votre format préféré n’est pas encore supporté, n’hésitez pas à nous en faire part. Piero étant opensource et communautaire, il est également possible de contribuer pour ajouter des implémentations de formats de données.
FonctionnalitésPiero va au-delà de la visualisation. De la simple identification, telle qu’on la retrouve dans QGIS, aux annotations et mesures, en passant par les plans de coupes ou la boîte de détourage, l’application fournit les outils pour exploiter facilement vos données 3D. La liste grandit au fil du temps, n’hésitez pas à faire un tour sur la page GitLab pour une information plus détaillée.
Quelques fonctionnalités marquantes :
- La mesure entre plans, avec une détection automatique des plans ( e.g. de mur à mur dans un bâtiment )
- La « clipping box » permettant de découper l’intérieur d’une boîte, ou son extérieur pour mieux visualiser les éléments 3D. Très utiles pour les bâtiments.
- L’interrogation des objets IFC avec tous leurs attributs
- Les annotations et les geo-signets 3D
Si la simple utilisation en glisser-déposer de données ne vous suffit pas, ou si vous avez des données situées en dehors de la France métropolitaine, vous pouvez héberger votre propre instance de Piero. Très simplement, en éditant la configuration via un simple fichier, vous pourrez modifier l’emprise et les sources de données. L’application étant statique (JavaScript et CSS), il suffira de regénérer l’application et déployer les fichiers sur un simple serveur web. En quelques lignes de commande, vous pouvez mettre à disposition votre propre Piero sans modifier une seule ligne de code source.
Piero étant open-source et libre, vous pouvez également modifier le code source de l’application plus en profondeur si besoin ! Piero peut servir de base à des applications dédiées avec des fonctionnalités propres, ou des cas d’utilisation spécifiques.
Plus d’informationN’hésitez pas à nous contacter en créant un ticket sur le projet GitLab ! Par ailleurs, la gouvernance de Piero est communautaire et nous accueillons toutes les contributions ! Vous pouvez également contacter Oslandia si vous souhaitez de l’accompagnement en formation, développement, maintenance, intégration de données, ou si vous souhaitez établir un partenariat sur ces sujets : infos+3d@oslandia.com.

sur Fernando Quadro: Geoprocessamento na Gestão Rodoviária
Publié: 13 March 2024, 1:00pm CET
Quando falamos de Gestão Rodoviária, muito se discute em como aumentar a segurança e na diminuição de acidentes nas rodovias em geral.
Você sabia que podemos aplicar Geoprocessamento na Gestão Rodoviária para apoio na previsão das condições das rodovias?
O projeto Vision Zero, por exemplo, é uma iniciativa que tem o objetivo de reduzir a zero as mortes no trânsito, e o SIG e a análise espacial são ferramentas utilizadas para atingir esse objetivo.
Mas onde o Geoprocessamento entra na prática, e onde ele pode realmente contribuir? Veja:
Prevenção de riscos e acidentes;
Melhorias de acesso;
Mapeamento de estradas inundáveis;
Geotecnologias de detecção remota;
Dados GPS;
Aprendizado de máquina para prever locais de acidentes.

sur Stefano Costa: Africa. Le collezioni dimenticate
Publié: 13 March 2024, 9:12am CET
È finita a Torino la mostra “Africa. Le collezioni dimenticate” allestita nelle sale di Palazzo Chiablese. Sono riuscito a visitare la mostra pochi giorni fa. Mi è piaciuta molto.
La mostra è stata organizzata dai Musei Reali di Torino, dalla Direzione Regionale Musei Piemonte e dal Museo di Antropologia ed Etnografia dell’Università di Torino, ed è una intensa passeggiata nel voyeurismo e collezionismo italiano durante il lungo periodo della scoperta, conquista e razzia dell’Africa, fino agli orrori della guerra in Etiopia. Il percorso si snoda sui passi di molti personaggi, tutti uomini italiani: esploratori, ingegneri al servizio dell’espansione belga nel Congo, affaristi, membri della casa reale. Tutti accomunati dall’attività coloniale nelle sue diverse fasi storiche, e tutti prontamente rimossi dalla memoria collettiva al termine della seconda guerra mondiale. Altrettanto dimenticate le collezioni di oggetti africani che questi personaggi hanno fatto confluire a vario titolo nei musei italiani e in questo caso piemontesi.
Ad accompagnare la visita le installazioni di Bekele Mekonnen, in particolare il “site specific” dal titolo “The smoking table” ma anche le clip sonore lungo il percorso.
La mostra ha agitato tantissimo i fascisti dichiarati e quelli non dichiarati perché non usa giri di parole, perché chiama il colonialismo e il razzismo con il loro nome, perché mette le voci africane sullo stesso piano di quelle italiane. Il ricco programma pubblico ha coinvolto molte persone, anche originarie dell’Africa.Parte dell’installazione “The smoking table” con scritte di colori diversi. In rosso sotto un braccio muscoloso: conspiracy, betrayal, greed, injustice, deception. In azzurro sotto due mani strette: honesty, fraternity, generosity, impartiality”
Le polemiche, tutte politiche e ben poco culturali, suonano come un brusio fastidioso se consideriamo il lavoro lunghissimo di preparazione della mostra, la quantità di musei con collezioni africane in tutto il Piemonte, la ricchezza del catalogo che affronta in dettaglio molte delle questioni sollevate ad arte, ad esempio il salario pagato ai lavoratori della Società Agricola Italo-Somala, veri “forzati della terra” anche nelle parole degli italiani dell’epoca.
Il paradosso sta nel fatto che questa mostra è molto blanda, se la inquadriamo nella cornice europea e occidentale bianca dei musei di antropologia e archeologia: dalla complessa operazione di continuo adattamento del Musée du Quai Branly di Parigi, al documentario Dahomey di Mati Diop che ha vinto l’Orso d’oro del Festival di Berlino pochi giorni fa, per finire al lavoro avviato nel 2016 da quello che oggi si chiama Museo delle Civiltà. È molto eloquente l’intervento del direttore Andrea Villani a un convegno di poche settimane fa, che potete rivedere su YouTube. Ho apprezzato questo passaggio:
Quello che allora aveva un senso oggi può non solo non avere un senso, ma può anche essere tossico. [..] La storia non si cambia. I musei non cambiano la storia, ma possono raccontarla per intero, accettando di mettere in crisi quello che è venuto prima
E poiché in Italia non siamo solo colonizzatori ma anche colonizzati e depredati, è bene sapere che alcuni musei degli USA sono seriamente alle prese con la provenienza delle proprie collezioni.

sur Un plugin QGIS pour QWC
Publié: 12 March 2024, 5:03pm CET par Florent Fougères
Etat des lieuxQGIS Web Client (QWC) est un client web responsive modulaire de nouvelle génération pour QGIS Server, construit avec ReactJS et OpenLayers et qui fonctionne avec un système de service. Il permet donc de visualiser dans une application cartographique web des projets QGIS.
Actuellement pour publier un projet QGIS il faut passer par l’interface d’administration web pour uploader le projet, ou bien le sauvegarder au bon endroit dans l’arborescence de l’instance QWC.
L’objectif du travail qui a été réalisé est donc d’améliorer l’intégration entre QGIS et son client web en permettant de publier un projet dans une instance QWC directement depuis l’interface de QGIS. Ce développement a été financé par la Direction des Systèmes d’Information et des Usages Numériques des Agences de l’eau
Pour atteindre cet objectif il a fallu développer deux choses.
Premièrement un nouveau service de publication pour assurer l’interaction entre le client QGIS et son client web QWC.
Et ensuite, un plugin QGIS pour interagir avec ce service de manière simple et intuitive.
Côté QWC : Le service de publicationCe service de publication est nommé
qwc-publish-service
et est disponible sur notre GitLab.Il s’agit d’une API REST permettant une gestion des projets avec des opérations de type CRUD (Create Read Update Delete). Le service est donc constitué de toutes les routes API nécessaires à la gestion de l’arborescence (créer/supprimer et déplacer des dossiers) et également à la gestion des projets (publier/mettre à jour/supprimer des projets). Ces routes sont détaillées dans le readme du projet.
Une option du service qwc-publish-service permet de générer automatiquement la configuration de l’application lors de chaque action. En cas d’échec de la génération, le service restaure l’état précédent (application d’un Rollback sur l’action). Il n’est par exemple pas possible de supprimer un projet qui est utilisé dans un thème ou bien de publier un projet vide.
Côté QGIS : Le plugin QWC2 ToolsPour accompagner le service et rendre ces routes API utilisables de manière plus transparente nous avons développé un plugin QGIS nommé QWC2 Tools.
Pour fonctionner, ce plugin nécessite obligatoirement que l’instance QWC soit associée au service
qwc-publish-service
. Si le service peut fonctionner sans le plugin, l’inverse n’est pas possible.Ce plugin fournit donc une interface intuitive et intégrée à QGIS. On y retrouve un explorateur dédié à QWC, dans lequel on retrouve l’arborescence des projets de l’instance.
Cet arbre est surplombé d’un bandeau contenant toutes Les actions possibles :
- Publier un projet
- Mettre à jour un projet
- Supprimer un projet ou un dossier
- Créer un dossier
- Rafraîchir l’arbre
- Ouvrir tous les dossiers
- Fermer tous les dossiers
- Accéder à la fenêtre des paramètres de l’instance
Certaines de ces actions sont également possibles par clic droit et double clic, directement dans l’arborescence. Pour déplacer un projet ou un dossier le drag and drop peut être utilisé.
Toutes les actions disponibles sont visibles dans la documentation.
Enfin ce plugin gère également la gestion de l’authentification aux instances QWC via le gestionnaire d’authentification natif de QGIS. Deux types d’authentification sont gérés, l’authentification simple avec utilisateur et mot de passe et l’authentification OIDC (OpenID Connect).

sur Mappery: Occular Cartographic Study
Publié: 12 March 2024, 11:00am CET
Eric Lund said “Came across this eye-catching map at my eye doctor’s office this week and had to share it with you.” Well I am glad he did share it, what a cracking map in the wild! Here’s a bit more detail.
This piece was designed by Tad Bradley, the accompanying description says
‘Snellen’ and “Tumbling E’ eye charts: Ocular Cartographic Study
Although trained and currently practicing architecture at SMA Architecture + Design, Tad Bradley remains an artist and educator. He is continually fascinated with nature and the human body. The complexities within and between these are continually inspirational to investigate through art.
The scale of the eye charts is inspired by the art movement of hyperrealism. In reproducing the eye charts at such a large scale, they begin to hold a greater weight within space, possibly reminding us the value of our eyesight and the incredible value this sense and these organs bring to our lives.
The maps and text you see were originally printed in 1906. The series of oversized manuscripts, which focused on separate geographic regions, were titled ‘Geologic Atlas of the United States’, edited by S.J. Kubel. The maps here, in the waiting area, have been scanned and reprinted on metal panels in order to protect them from UV degradation from solar exposure.
Eye charts have been the tool opticians have used for many years to assist in initially analyzing visual acuity. Exploring a tool within art invites a different awareness of not only the object but the process of how it is used. These eye charts were created for specific groups of people. The Tumbling E chart is used for those unable to read or never learned the Latin alphabet. The shapes and their direction are universal to all. The Snellen eye chart contains eleven rows of diminishing Latin letters to assess vision.
Each 11? x 11? plywood panel has two layers of hand-cut paper [1906] to create visual contrast for viewers.
“I chose the text pages from the Atlas to expose the Tumbling E chart. I was interested in exploring the contrast of the text-heavy pages and their visual relationship to the simplified ‘E’ shapes. The maps, on the other hand, are filled with high-contrast colors and patterns, more easily revealing the letters of the Snellen eye chart.
One of my goals in creating this work was to analyze how we as humans experience the world, interact with one another, and stand alone as individuals. I hope that my work creates curiosity, questions and conversation”.MapsintheWild Occular Cartographic Study

sur Fernando Quadro: Por que usar o PostGIS?
Publié: 11 March 2024, 1:00pm CET
Talvez você já tenha escutado algumas vezes a frase: “PostGIS é uma extensão espacial do PostgreSQL”.
Isso não significava que você tivesse ou tenha alguma ideia do que isso significa, e que você sabia o que é o PostgreSQL, quiçá o PostGIS.
Mas não se preocupe, você não sairá desse post sem saber o que é cada um deles.
PostGIS é um extensor de banco de dados espacial de código aberto e disponível gratuitamente para o PostgreSQL Database Management System (também conhecido como DBMS). Portanto, PostgreSQL (também conhecido como Postgres) é o banco de dados e PostGIS é como um complemento desse banco de dados.
Resumidamente, o PostGIS adiciona funções espaciais, como distância, área, união, interseção e tipos de dados de geometria ao PostgreSQL. Os bancos de dados espaciais armazenam e manipulam objetos espaciais como qualquer outro objeto no banco de dados.
E qual a vantagem de utilizá-lo?
Na prática temos algumas vantagens em utilizá-los, mas a principal é a possibilidade de trabalhar com grandes conjuntos de dados. Não é apenas mais fácil, mas às vezes é quase impossível trabalhar em conjuntos de dados maiores sem um banco de dados.
Você já tentou abrir um arquivo CSV de 2 GB?
Ou tentou fazer algum geoprocessamento para um GeoJSON de 800 mb?
Você sabia que os Shapefiles têm um limite de tamanho?
É claro que você pode resolver alguns desses problemas usando o Geopackage ou alguns outros formatos de arquivo, mas em geral o PostGIS é a ferramenta ideal para lidar com grandes volumes de dados (geoespaciais).

sur Stefano Costa: In…segnami il silenzio
Publié: 10 March 2024, 7:08pm CET
Ieri sera siamo andati al Teatro Gustavo Modena, qui vicino a casa, per uno spettacolo della stagione dedicata all’infanzia. Eravamo con altre famiglie, ci siamo persino fatti un aperitivo casalingo prima di andare, visto che iniziava alle sette e mezza.
Lo spettacolo si intitola “In…segnami il silenzio” e ha come protagonisti Marcello e Maria. Marcello ci racconta dell’arrivo di Maria nella sua classe, lei non parla e non sente, perché ha le “orecchie rotte”. Maria però sa ascoltare con gli occhi e sa parlare con la danza delle mani, con il viso, con tutto il corpo. Il rapporto tra Marcello e Maria è molto profondo, lui si lascia trasportare e insegnare. In cambio le fa vedere la musica che lei non può sentire, in particolare sulle note di una travolgente “Ça plane pour moi”.
Lo spettacolo è rivolto ai bambini anche se non è facilissimo, ma tratta in modo fiabesco, senza filtri e un po’ scanzonato il tema della disabilità, che non è solo la sordità di Maria ma anche la “distrazione” di Marcello che la maestra gli rimprovera.
Ci è piaciuto molto.
Alla fine un appello della regista Elena Dragonetti per il cessate il fuoco a Gaza è stato accolto da un lungo applauso.

sur Fernando Quadro: Você conhece o MobilityDB?
Publié: 8 March 2024, 1:00pm CET
Dispositivos de rastreamento de localização, como GPS, são hoje amplamente utilizados em smartphones e veículos. Como resultado, os dados de trajetória geoespacial estão atualmente sendo coletados e usados ??em muitos domínios de aplicação. O MobilityDB fornece o suporte de banco de dados necessário para armazenar e consultar esses dados de trajetória geoespacial.
MobilityDB é implementado como uma extensão do PostgreSQL e PostGIS. Ele implementa tipos de banco de dados persistentes e operações de consultas para gerenciar trajetórias geoespaciais e suas propriedades que variam no tempo.
Uma trajetória geoespacial é geralmente coletada como uma sequência de pontos de localização e informações de data e hora. Na realidade, porém, o movimento é contínuo. Portanto, o MobilityDB interpola a trilha de movimento entre as informações de entrada. Como tal, a localização e as propriedades do objeto em movimento podem ser consultadas, efetivamente aproximadas, a qualquer momento.
Embora esta interpolação restaure a continuidade do movimento, ela não corresponde a um aumento no tamanho do armazenamento. Pelo contrário, permite descobrir informações redundantes e removê-las. Assim, apenas as informações onde ocorre uma mudança significativa na velocidade/direção são retidas. Esse processo é chamado de normalização e geralmente resulta em uma redução significativa no tamanho do armazenamento em comparação com os pontos de entrada.
Mas na prática, como funciona esse gerenciamento realizado pela extensão?
Pense em obter a velocidade média de um trem em movimento, sem nenhum código SQL longo, usando uma função e pronto.
Ou em armazenar dados GPS de forma muito compacta em uma única linha/coluna e ser capaz de fazer consultas complexas com muito pouco SQL.
É essa praticidade que o MobilityDB vai te proporcionar.

sur GeoServer Team: How to Publish a GeoTIFF file in GeoServer
Publié: 8 March 2024, 1:00am CET
GeoSpatial Techno is a startup focused on geospatial information that is providing e-learning courses to enhance the knowledge of geospatial information users, students, and other startups. The main approach of this startup is providing quality, valid specialized training in the field of geospatial information.
( YouTube | LinkedIn | Facebook | Reddit | X )
Publishing a GeoTIFF file in GeoServerIn this session, we want to talk about “How to Publish a GeoTIFF file in GeoServer” comprehensively. If you want to access the complete tutorial, simply click on the link.
IntroductionThe GeoTIFF is a widely used geospatial raster data format, it is composed of a single file containing both the data and the georeferencing information. By default, GeoTIFF will be an option in the Raster Data Sources list when creating a new data store.
Note. In this blog post, we used GeoServer version 2.20.0.
Add a GeoTIFF dataTo add a GeoTIFF data in GeoServer, follow these steps:
- Navigate to Data > Stores page, then click on the Add new Store link.
- Select the desired workspace from the drop-down menu.
- Enter the Data Source Name, make sure the Enabled option is checked. If checked, it enables the store. If unchecked (disabled), no data in the GeoTIFF will be served from GeoServer.
- In the URL under the Connection Parameters, browse to the location of the GeoTIFF file then press the Save button.
- Now you will be redirected to the New Layer page automatically and to add a layer for an available resource click on the Publish link.
- Check the Name, Coordinate Reference Systems and the Bounding Boxes fields are properly set and press the Save button.
In Geoserver, a layer group serves as a convenient container for organizing layers and other layer groups in a structured hierarchy. By assigning a single layer to a layer group in WMS requests, the process of making requests is simplified as instead of specifying multiple individual layers, only one layer needs to be indicated. Furthermore, a layer group establishes a set order for the layers within it and enables the specification of alternative styles for the layers, distinct from their default settings.
Add a Layer Group-
To create a Layer Groups, navigate to Data > Stores page. Click on Add a new layer group link. The initial fields allow you to configure the name, title, abstract and workspace of the layer group. Enter the
Data Source Name
andTitle
. -
The Enabled checkbox, if disabled, will cause the layer group to just show up at configuration time, while the Advertised checkbox, if unchecked, will make it to not be available in GetCapabilities request and in the layer preview. The behaviour of layer group regarding both checkboxes will not affect the behaviour of any of the layers being grouped, which will follow respectively that specified in the corresponding edit page.
Note. In the layer group section, Workspace selection is optional.
-
The Bound section contain the data BoundingBox of this layer group in the native coordinate reference system. The input can be done manually or automatically with the help of Generate Bounds.
Note. By default, a layer group is queryable when at least a child layer is queryable. Uncheck Queryable box if you want to explicitly indicate that it is not queryable independently of how the child layers are configured.
-
To add more layers to the Layer Group list, you can press the Add Layer… button at the top of the table. From the popup window, select the layer to be added by clicking the layer name.
-
A layer group can be added by pressing the Add Layer Group… button at the top of the table. From the list of layer groups, select the appropriate layer group’s name.
-
A style group is a style that has one or more Named Layers which reference layers that exist in the catalog. Style groups can be added to Layer Groups as an alternative way of defining a collection of styled layers. To add it, press the Add Style Group… button at the top of the table and from the popup window, select the style group to be added by clicking its name.
-
Press the generate bounds button to have geoserver compute the group bounds from the layers inside of it.
Note. A layer group can contain layers with dissimilar bounds and projections. GeoServer automatically reprojects all layers to the projection of the layer group.
-
When a layer group is processed, the layers are rendered in the order provided, so the publishable elements at the bottom of list will be rendered last and will show on top of the others. A publishable element can be positioned higher or lower on this list by pressing the green up or down arrows, respectively, or can be simply dragged in the target position.
-
Metadata links allows linking to external documents that describe the data of layer group. Keywords make possible to associate a layer group with some keywords that will be used to assist catalog searching.
-
Press Save button to create the new layer group.
So in order to preview the created layer, navigate to the Data > Layer Preview page and enter the name of your layer group in the search box, then press Enter button. Click on the OpenLayers link for a given layer and the view will display. An OpenLayers map loads in a new page and displays the group layer with the default styles. You can use the Preview Map to zoom and pan around the dataset, as well as display the attributes of features by click on each feature.
Using WMS layers in QGISTo display a WMS layer in QGIS software, follow these steps:
- Open GQIS and navigate to Layer > Add Layer > Add WMS/WMTS Layer.
- To create a new service connection, from the Layers tab, press New button.
- Name your connection from the Connection Details. Next, from the
URL
textbox, you need to access a WMS layer as HTTP address of Web Map Server. In this case, name the connection asMy Project
and the URL ashttp://localhost:8080/geoserver/project/wms
and press OK. Note that the “project” refers to the workspace defined in Geoserver. - Press the Connect button to fetch the list of layers available, then press Add button and Close.
- Now, you will see the layer loaded in the QGIS canvas. You can zoom/pan around just like any other layer. The way WMS service works is that every time you zoom/pan, it sends your viewport coordinates to the server and the server creates an image for that viewport and return it to the client. So there will be some delay before you see the image for the area after you have zoomed in. Also, since the data you see is an image, there is no way to query for attributes like in a regular vector/imagery layer.

Personalização e Desenvolvimento
O GeoNode: A natureza de código aberto do GeoNode permite ampla personalização e desenvolvimento. As organizações podem adaptar a plataforma às suas necessidades específicas sem incorrer em custos adicionais com ferramentas de desenvolvimento proprietárias.
ArcGIS Online: A personalização no ArcGIS Online pode exigir o uso de ferramentas e APIs proprietárias, potencialmente levando a taxas de licenciamento ou custos de desenvolvimento
adicionais.Escalabilidade e flexibilidade
GeoNode: A escalabilidade do GeoNode não está vinculada a níveis de licenciamento ou níveis de assinatura. As organizações podem dimensionar a implantação do GeoNode conforme necessário, sem incorrer em custos adicionais de licenciamento.
ArcGIS Online: O dimensionamento do ArcGIS Online pode exigir a compra de licenças adicionais ou níveis de assinatura, o que pode se tornar caro à medida que as necessidades de GIS de uma organização aumentam.
Mas enfim, quando devo usar cada uma das ferramentas?
Use o GeoNode se fizer parte de uma pequena, média ou grande organização com necessidades essenciais de mapeamento e compartilhamento de dados geoespaciais e que, além disso, busque uma solução open-source, fácil de usar e sem custos de licenças.
Use o ArcGIS Online se fizer parte de uma grande organização com recursos que possua necessidades complexas de GIS e que busquem uma plataforma robusta e com ampla gama de funcionalidades para usuários que já estão familiarizados com outras plataformas ArcGIS e ferramentas da Esri.

sur [1’Tech by Oslandia] WebGL
Publié: 7 March 2024, 7:00am CET par Caroline Chanlon
Dans cette minute Tech, nos collaborateurs vous proposent d’expliquer une technologie, une méthodologie, un concept. Après « open source » et « LiDAR« , on a brainstormé sur GitLab pour donner notre meilleure définition de WebGL.
Déf : WebGL est une interface de programmation graphique permettant l’affichage de scènes 2D et 3D interactives dans le navigateur. C’est le pont qui permet aux pages web d’utiliser la carte graphique des ordinateurs, ce qui est synonyme de multiplication des usages 3D !
Par exemple, OpenLayers, librairie JavaScript, utilise WebGL pour dessiner des cartes en 2D. Three.js est une libraire javascript implémentant un moteur 3D complet: [https:]] .
WebGL x OslandiaOslandia travaille régulièrement sur des projets alliant cartographie et 3D. Giro3D est une librairie WebGL SIG ( [https:]] ) qui a été développée par nos équipes et permettant de visualiser des geodata dans son navigateur.

sur TerriSTORY®, un outil partenarial d’aide au pilotage de la transition des territoires
Publié: 5 March 2024, 7:00am CET par Caroline Chanlon
Co-construit avec les territoires et présent dans 6 régions (Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, Bretagne, Corse, Nouvelle-Aquitaine, Occitanie et Pays de la Loire), TerriSTORY® est un outil d’aide à la décision et de visualisation de données énergie-climat territoriales. TerriSTORY® est une plateforme multi thématiques avec de nombreuses fonctionnalités, qui permet d’élaborer le diagnostic du territoire, de définir la stratégie, et de suivre la trajectoire de transition.
Origine du projetLe projet TerriSTORY® est né en 2017, à l’initiative d’Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes Énergie Environnement dans le cadre de ses missions : collecter, produire, traiter et diffuser des données sur le climat, l’énergie, les déchets, les ressources, … afin de les mettre à disposition des territoires pour les accompagner sur les enjeux écologiques.
Les acteurs du projetLe consortium TerriSTORY®, aujourd’hui en charge de la gestion et des choix d’évolution du projet, rassemble une vingtaine d’acteurs nationaux et régionaux ayant une mission de service public ou d’intérêt général.
Le volet technique a été assuré entièrement par Oslandia en 2018 et 2019 puis partiellement de 2020 à de 2022, dans une logique de transfert de compétences. Les équipes d’Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes Energie Environnement assurent aujourd’hui elles-même l’ensemble des développements et opérations de maintenance.
« Nous avons réalisé un POC au départ puis avons assuré les développements avec les équipes projets pendant quelques années. En parallèle et tout au long du projet, nous avons formé deux de leurs développeurs en interne. L’objectif était de leur permettre d’être complètement autonomes, et c’est le cas aujourd’hui ! » Vincent Picavet, co-fondateur et CEO d’Oslandia.
Les technologies mobiliséesCôté client, le choix s’est porté vers ReactJS, accompagné d’OpenLayers et ChartJS. L’API backend a été développée en Sanic (Python). Les données sont stockées et exploitées au sein d’une base de données PostgreSQL/PostGIS.
Une application open sourceLe code TerriSTORY® est rendu disponible sous la licence publique générale GNU Affero (ou aGPL) version 3.

sur Stefano Costa: ènostra e la transizione energetica dal basso a Savona
Publié: 4 March 2024, 10:47am CET
Venerdì 1 marzo ero a Savona per parlare di transizione energetica dal basso alla Società di Mutuo Soccorso Fornaci, insieme al gruppo territoriale di ènostra. Ci avevano invitati il comitato No rigassificatore e il comitato Fermiamo il mostro per una serata insieme a due associazioni genovesi con cui collaboriamo spesso, Cittadini sostenibili e CER Sole.
Savona e Vado Ligure non assistono passivamente alle scelte assurde dei politici regionali e locali di accogliere un rigassificatore che inquina il mare, deturpa il territorio con tutto il gasdotto necessario a terra, contribuisce a inquinare l’aria rimanendo ancorati alle fonti fossili e arricchendo le grandi multinazionali. C’è stato un risveglio che ha portato a una lunga catena umana lungo la costa, tante mobilitazioni e molti resistono all’idea di avere dei benefici “compensativi”.
La serata è stata lunga e la partecipazione grande, nonostante la pioggia. Si è parlato dei danni che derivano dalle fonti fossili per il clima e per la salute, delle false notizie sulle rinnovabili, delle comunità energetiche. E io ho presentato le attività di ènostra. Ero piuttosto stanco ma con l’aiuto degli altri soci del gruppo territoriale ho spiegato cosa fa la cooperativa, che principi la guidano e l’importanza della partecipazione alle scelte energetiche al di là del cambio di fornitura. Non tutta l’energia rinnovabile è uguale e quella fatta dal basso, attenta agli impatti sociali e ambientali è quella che preferiamo.
L’accoglienza del comitato è stata molto generosa e sono contento che sia nato questo legame.

sur GeoServer Team: GeoServer 2.25-RC Release
Publié: 4 March 2024, 1:00am CET
GeoServer 2.25-RC release is now available with downloads (bin, war, windows), along with docs and extensions.
This is a release candidate intended for public review and feedback. GeoServer 2.25-RC is made in conjunction with GeoTools 31-RC, and GeoWebCache 1.25-RC.
Thanks to Jody Garnett (GeoCat) for making this release.
Why share a release candidate?A sensible question to ask is why a “release candidate” is being produced at all - when we do not recommend running such a thing in production.
GeoServer also follows a “release early, release often” approach which is where the project shares releases so you can test and provide feedback.
This results in a lovely balance:
-
The GeoServer developer has already tested on the data and data sources they got handy.
-
The users of GeoServer have access to a much greater variety in data and and use cases to test with.
Please try out this release candidate and let us know how it works for you.
-
Bonus: By testing with your data directory you are assured that the next GeoServer will work well for you and your team.
This balance of a community sharing and each doing what they can they can do easily, is a nice thing about the open-source approach: the result is software we can trust and works well.
Thank you for being part of the GeoServer community. Testing and feedback is welcome by email and bug reports.
Upgrade NotesWe have a number of configuration changes when updating an existing system:
-
The longstanding
ENTITY_RESOLUTION_ALLOWLIST
setting has been recommended as a way to control the locations available for external entity resolution when parsing XML documents and requests.The default has changed from
*
(allowing any location) to allowing the recommendedwww.w3.org
,schemas.opengis.net
,www.opengis.net
locations used for OGC Web Services, along with theinspire.ec.europa.eu/schemas
location used by our friends in Europe. -
The FreeMarker Template HTML Auto-escaping is now enabled by default.
-
The spring security firewall is now enabled by default.
-
A new configuration setting is available to limit content served from the
geoserver/www
folder.If you have not met the
www
folder before it is used to share content, and there is a tutorial serving static files. -
We do add recommendations to production considerations over time, if you have not checked that page in a while please review.
Thanks to Steve Ikeoka and Jody Garnett for these improvements.
Security ConsiderationsThis a reminder to update to GeoServer 2.24.2 Release (or GeoServer 2.35.5 Release).
Alongside the upcoming GeoServer 2.25.0 release we will “publicly disclose” a list of Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures that have been addressed previously.
- If you are working with a commercial support provider that volunteers with the geoserver-security email list they are already informed.
- If you have updated to GeoServer 2.24.2 Release (or GeoServer 2.23.5 Release) you are already patched.
I hope you enjoy our team’s effort to improve communication. The use of the CVE system allows us to reach a wider audience than reads these blog posts.
See the project security policy for more information on how security vulnerabilities are managed.
Experimental Java 21 supportGeoServer, along with GeoTools and GeoWebCache, are now tested to build and pass tests with Java 21.
This is not yet an endorsement to run GeoServer in production with Java 21. We are looking ahead at the 2024 roadmap, and are making sure the basics are covered for the newer Java releases.
JTS fast polygon intersection enabled by defaultThe JTS Next Generation polygon intersection algorithm has been enabled by default, which will improve performance of a number of operations, including WPS processes and the vector tiles generation. We deem the functionality well tested enough that it should be opened to the majority of users, even if it’s still possible to turn it off by adding the
-Djts.overlay=old
.
MapML ExtensionThe MapML extension is receiving a number of updates and improvements, with more to come in the following months. It’s now possible to declare “Tiled CRS” as the CRS for a layer, with the implication not just of the CRS, but also of the gridset that will be used by the MapML viewer:
This portion builds on top of the work done months ago to support astronomical CRSs, which allows GeoServer to support multiple CRS authorities.
The MapML preview links are now using the new MapML output format, while the old dedicated REST controller has been removed. This allows for better integration of the MapML format in the GeoServer ecosystem. The MapML viewer has also been updated to the latest version:
Thanks to Joseph Miller and Andrea Aime (GeoSolutions) for this work, and Natural Resources Canada for sponsoring it.
Community Module UpdatesMuch of the new activity in GeoServer starts as a community module. We’d like to remind you that these modules are not yet supported, and invite you to join the effort by participating in their development, as well as testing them and providing feedback.
Raster attribute Table community moduleDeveloped as part of GEOS-11175, the Raster Attribute Table community module uses the GDAL Raster Attribute Table (RAT) to provide a way to associate attribute information for individual pixel values within the raster, to create styles as well as to provide a richer GetFeatureInfo output.
For more information see the user guide.
We’d like to thank Andrea Aime (GeoSolutions) for the development and NOAA for sponsoring.
Graticules for WMS mapsThe graticules community module, developed as part of GEOS-11216, provides a datastore generating graticules for WMS maps, along with a rendering transformation that can be used to label them. The module can be used to draw a graticule in WMS maps, as well as to download them as part of WFS (or in combination with the WPS download module).
We’d like to thank Ian Turton for development and GeoSolutions for sponsoring the work.
GeoServer monitor Kafka storageThe monitoring Kafka storage module, developed as part of GEOS-11150, allows storing the requests captured by the monitoring extension into a Kafka topic.
We’d like to thank Simon Hofer for sharing his work with the community. To learn more about the module, how to install and use it, see the user-guide.
JWT HeadersThe JWT headers module has been developed as part of GEOS-11317.
The module is a new authentication filter that can read JWT Headers, as well as general JSON payloads and simple strings, to identify a user, as well as to extract their roles. The combination of Apache mod_auth_openidc with geoserver-jwt-headers-plugin provides an alternative to using the geoserver-sec-oauth2-openid-connect-plugin plugin.
We’d like to thank David Blasby (GeoCat) for this work on this module.

Publié: 1 March 2024, 5:27pm CET
Google Colab is a popular notebook service that you can run directly from your browser. Python is natively supported and it’s fairly easy to run a Jupyter notebook, even with custom dependencies like Numpy and Matplotlib.
You can run IOSACal in Google Colab! I have added a new short how-to guide in the official documentation. Find the how-to at [https:]] .
This takes advantage of a demo notebook that was contributed by Jelmer Wind.A screenshot of the demo notebook running IOSACal in Google Colab. Even with a plot!
