We wrote a small piece on our open #Erasmus #StudentMobility data for a Finnish GIS professional magazine, Positio, with @miladmzdh, Oula Inkeröinen and Olle Järv. It is in #Finnish though.

It just came out:

We've done it 🥳

Finally, there's a canonical paper on the #QGIS project, its history, workings, and challenges: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2666389925001138

Thanks to @timlinux and @mbernasocchi for joining me in trying to tell the QGIS story 💚

And here's @martinfleis et al.'s new street network generalization tool:

Another interesting new paper on street network analysis, HT @gboeing

💯 it's surprisingly hard to count intersections

Quite many from @digigeolab were at the #LBS2025 conference last week presenting our work on #Mobility #GIScience #Geography and #GeoAI, and we wrote a small blog post on it.

https://blogs.helsinki.fi/digital-geography/2025/05/15/digital-geography-lab-at-lbs-2025-conference-at-aalto-university/

Following that is @tadusko presenting his work on the rise and fall of Flickr and use of its data in #GIScience at the #LBS2025 conference.

Key takeaway is that #Flickr is highly biased data produced in the Global North by a select few highly active users, but widely used in research because it is the only major social media platform that still allows data collection using its API. The question remains whether the data should be used.

Brilliant work all in all!

The second day of #LBS2025 conference is about to start, and so is the onslaught of presentations from @digigeolab members and alumni on topics like #mobility #BigData #GIScience #MachineLearning #NatureRecreation #Segregation #EcosystemServices #Geography

I have the dubious honor of the very last presentation of the day, acting as the firewall between the scientific program and the conference dinner. Let's see how many turn up 😅

@grimalkina Next month’s #StateOfTheMapUS will have a healthy mix of the human and tech sides, both grassroots and institutional, that would be relevant to those in or adjacent to #GIScience. Our friends at @OpenStreetMapUS offer discounts for academic affiliation, and they just started raising funds to hopefully offer scholarships for affected government employees too. https://en.osm.town/@OpenStreetMapUS/114457256592594448
