The new version of @Mapbox GL JS introduces non-Mercator map projections, reimagined for the interactive maps era in a way you've never seen before. This is a big deal. Thread:

Want to get paid to play with remote sensing data for 12 months? Pretty awesome opportunity from @Microsoft and @GEOSEC2025 earthobservations.org/geo_bl…

Through years of research, development, and testing, Virginia Norwood created the multispectral scanner system that flew on the very first #Landsat satellite and is considered the mother of the Earth-observing satellite series. πŸ›°οΈ

Mine was 4000$. As RemotePixel, Kyle's work is fully open source, you can deploy your own instance in few clicks... but still some people are too lazy!!! I'm sorry for you @kylebarron2 but don't stop doing nice stuff πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™
Time to shut down my old personal projects... Someone abused/scraped one of my map tiling APIs in June, sending the service 200 million API requests and me an $850 AWS bill 😱😭 1/9

Thanks to this project, I had the chance to work at @mapbox and then at @developmentseed where I'm trying to continue what I started with RPix.

I hope closing RemotePixel won't create any trouble😐and if it does I'm deeply sorry.

My comment to @OHagolle post on free and open data in #remotesensing: fine, but who pays for the processing? Next step is a free public cloud service to use them. I tried to summarize my thoughts here: labo.obs-mip.fr/multitemp/fr… Caveat: I'm not an economist, comments are welcome!

So it seems that search.remotepixel.ca don't return any image for sentinel. There was some change on the API which I have actually no time to fix, I'm so sorry!

STAC was essential when we were designing our new Catalog API, which is now publicly available. forum.sentinel-hub.com/t/spa… Thanks to @opencholmes, @matthmohr, @GeoSkeptic and all the STAC community.
The first beta release of STAC 1.0.0 is out! I'm excited we've reached this milestone, as it means things are really stabilizing. Thanks to the STAC community, and especially @GeoSkeptic and @matthmohr for their tireless work. See medium.com/@cholmes/stac-1-0… for more information.

There is no surprise why it’s also RemotePixel 5th birthday
Celebrating ✨5✨ years of Landsat on AWS today. Turns out this was a good idea! registry.opendata.aws/landsa… #EarthOnAWS ☁️🌎🌍🌏☁️

Since I started RemotePixel, this was something I wanted to do! I know I’ve got some work to do on the documentation but basically if you have an AWS account you could deploy your own stack and start creating large scale mosaics in couple minutes.
