our work, showing that only 65%–75% of the Planet Basemap #water area was also classified by #Landsat was featured in #Planet's monthly science newsletter: tinyurl.com/37rcadvp Article here: doi.org/10.1029/2025...

Excited to announce Groundsource - an open-source dataset of historic flood events! This has easily been one of the coolest projects I've worked on recently! Thread 🧵 for details and all relevant links. 1/n

A worldmap of the spatial distribution of extracted flood events in the Groundsource dataset. The map displays the total number of flood events extracted by the LLM-based pipeline aggregated per grid cell. The data are visualized using a Robinson projection, with event counts represented by a logarithmic color scale. Red points indicate the spatial centroids of reference flood events from the GDACS database.
