Day three of #AGU24. If you’ve not yet said hi to the OpenTopography team please stop by booth 1108 in the exhibit hall: opentopography.org/news/opentopog…

OT will be at #AGU24 next week. Visit us in booth #1108 in the exhibit hall. Our booth is staffed by the OT team. Stop by & ask questions, provide feedback, see what's new in OT, & grab an "I ❤️ #LIDAR" sticker! More info on the OT booth, talks, posters opentopography.org/news/opentopog…

Call for @NCALM_UH seed project proposals is now open! Great opportunity for students to get free #lidar for research. New this year, faculty at MSI & 2YCs are also eligible. Data become open via OT. To date there are 254 NCALM datasets available on OT: ncalm.cive.uh.edu/seed-proposals

We're giving Blue Sky a try. Find us at: bsky.app/profile/opento…

#30DayMapChallenge Day 24: Only circular shapes Elevation of #Cyprus in dot matrix style. Made with #QGIS using #OpenData SRTM 3 Arc-Second via @OpenTopography DEM Downloader plugin.

#30DayMapChallenge · Day Thirteen · A new tool. Visualisations of segments of the Duchesne (left) and Sevier (right) rivers, inspired and made possible by @geo_coe (who wrote a wonderful set of tutorials in QGIS) and @OpenTopography.

@con20or 🙏

Great repository and a very useful resource I've used many times over the years in teaching

@EFF @Esri #30DayMapChallenge Day 4 - Hexagons Elevation ranges at The Pentagon shown through hexagons Made using a LiDAR derived DSM of the area via @OpenTopography and a zonal statistics calculation in QGIS

OpenTopography is at the @SACNAS National Diversity in STEM (#2024NDiSTEM) conference in Phoenix, AZ this week. Stop by our booth in the exhibit hall (shared with @AGeSGeochron) to say hi 👋, ask questions, and learn about available resources related to #lidar and topography.

The first ever GDAL Users Survey is now open for feedback at docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI… The survey is an attempt to provide structured guidance for the maintenance program to focus its efforts in the coming year. Please contribute and help us circulate it!

@kirstenSharp How did you contact us? When? Don't see a message from you in our queue. We normally respond as quickly as possible. Please resend inquiry to info@opentopography.org

@OpenTopography hi very interested in your enterprise licensing. Have reached via email to your team but haven’t head back. Hoping to get a follow up as it’s for a timely project :)

Recent post: May–Aug 2024 publications using OpenTopography: 1. Fault mapping with drone lidar 2. Snowmelt, topography, plants, and pollinators 3. Remote sensing helps determine hurricane impact on vegetation and wildlife Read more about these new pubs: opentopography.org/blog/highlight…

We will be conducting scheduled maintenance on Tuesday Oct 1st from 2pm PDT to 6pm PDT. During this period the OpenTopography Portal and APIs may be temporarily unavailable. Thank you for your understanding.
