Cloud Optimized GeoTIFF vs the Meta Raster Format
If you are working with geospatial data visualizations you have probably heard of Cloud Optimized GeoTIFFs and may also have heard of the Meta Raster Format. These formats both provide efficient access to visualization data and have similar goals. The popular GDAL library supports both. So what are the differences, and when would you choose…

Data Wrangling from Space
โThe world is one big data problem.โ Andrew McAfee Small satellites are becoming cheaper to launch and operate, and their data is changing how we view the earth. As more commodity satellites enter orbit and begin sending data, the need for smart applications to ingest, archive, process, transform, and distribute that data become more important.…
