Betting Big on the Spatiotemporal Asset Catalog (STAC) Standard
We’re investing heavily in the STAC specification – including building a STAC-compatible Python library and server as well contributing to the Label Extension. We’re hoping this work will help accelerate adoption across the geospatial engineering community more broadly.

Serverless Devise with Jets
Over the past few years, serverless design has taken the cloud community by storm. It is hard to ignore–with promises like “pay only for what you use”, “no security patching”, and “infinite scalability”. Being on the cutting edge can have drawbacks too, which in this case is what I would describe as an absence of…

Using the Dedupe Machine Learning Library for Cleaning and Matching Data
To deal with issues of apparel facility list data quality and scale quickly and efficiently we need a machine learning tool that can capture the knowledge of domain experts, find commonalities in jumbled text, and confidently compare large lists without the need to compare each individual entry.

Rising From The Ashes, Untangling the Mysteries of DevOps
There are many books that have influenced me as a software engineer. From the computer science textbooks I used in college, to the animal covered books from O’Reilly I used to pick up new languages and tools, to the Clean Code books from Uncle Bob Martin that helped shape the way I approach software development. However,…
