Wrote something about why Earth observation might be sitting on two thirds of a scientific singularity without knowing it. It all starts with a paper by David Donoho about frictionless reproducibility and question our field through this lens. emmanuel.mathot.org/open-data-op...
What if Earth observation borrowed not just the rendering tricks from game engines, but the physics, the agents, the narrative systems? That's the question I've been sitting with. 🔗 emmanuel.mathot.org/can-we-build...
7 months ago ESA asked: can the open-source ecosystem handle Sentinel Zarr? 🛰️🗺️ We pushed early GeoZarr conventions with: → GDAL → OpenLayers → TiTiler/rasterio → STAC → rioxarray No proprietary format. No lock-in. Just interoperability. developmentseed.org/blog/2026-02-13-eopf-explorer-launch

Had a great week spending time IRL with my @developmentseed.org team in Lisbon. I work with the smartest, kindest people and I’m feeling energized to finish the year strong and looking forward to 2026. 🫶
La pétition contre la loi Duplomb va atteindre 1 million de signatures. Je demande à Emmanuel Macron de ne pas promulguer cette loi.

A project I've been working on for the last 6 months. I feel really strongly about making geospatial technology and data available and understood by as many people as possible. And that requires getting creative with the ways we share information. This is my small contribution to that effort.

Working on two DevSeed blog posts coming out soon. One with @emmanuel.mathot.org on the earth data value journey. Similar to the talk he gave at SatSummit Lisbon, so if you missed that you’ll find the blog interesting. Another is the LLM blog that we didn’t get out in December. 👀
If you're headed to DC for #AGU24 @agu.org, please come and say hi to the DevSeed squad; we'll be covering some incredible topics and tech: developmentseed.org/blog/2024-12...

What a week! 🛰️ 🚀 ✨ 🚋 I just spent one of the most exciting weeks in Lisbon. This was my first #SatSummit, and I got to meet my @developmentseed.org crew for our team week! I had a great time with fantastic people in one of the most beautiful cities in Europe!
We hosted #SatSummit in Lisbon this week. Bringing this community together is always inspiring, humbling, and fun. Learn more about this event and sign up to be notified when we host the next one: satsummit.io
Want to keep working on #STAC render extension support for #titiler after #SatSummit mini sprint? ➡️https://github.com/developmentseed/titiler/pull/1034 @developmentseed.org @vincentsarago.xyz
We closed two great days at #SatSummit in the best way possible, with some impromptu drinks at the beach. It doesn't get any better than this
