New to cloud-native geospatial? @JuliaWagemann (thriveGEO) & Guillaume Eynard-Bontemps (CNES) are running an intro workshop to @STACspec @cogeotiff @zarr_dev @GeoParquet & processing at scale w/ Dask + @duckdb at #CNG2026. Just bring a laptop. 2026.cloudnativegeo.org

#CNG2026 Workshop @MaxLenormand from @Fused_io will run this full-day hands-on session showing you how to build full end -to-end pipelines in production with big data in min with data on @source_coop & deploying results instantly. Oct 6, Snowbird Utah 2026.cloudnativegeo.org

Got asked at @cloudnativegeo London: What if you have multiple agents working on and deploying Tilebox data pipelines at the same time? The answer is the same cluster can power multiple workflows! Tilebox makes sure only one task runs at a time on each node. And if you're collaborating on the same workflow it's just as if you had a team, split responsibilities, and with versioning support you can roll out minor updates while runs are in process, and major updates without affecting existing jobs. Here's our current GCP dev cluster deployment manifest

Zipped shapefiles. Inconsistent schemas. No cloud-native distribution. This #CNG2026 workshop has a pipeline for that: @GeoParquet + @duckdb, no GDAL CLI, no intermediate disk conversions. Built on FEMA flood maps. Oct 6, Snowbird Utah 2026.cloudnativegeo.org

Join the 1st STAC community gathering in Japan 🇯🇵 This hands-on workshop is for builders to work on outstanding issues (D1), for data providers to share best practices (D2) & for data users to build on top of STAC (D3) Aug 25–27 in Tsukuba at @JAXA_en cloudnativegeo.org/blog/2026/06/a…

The blog post below builds on the intro by @Brianna_R_Pagan & @ThomasAHervey, who co-authored a white paper based on the “Beyond Open Data” discussion session at #CNG2025. The white paper is available now: cloudnativegeo.org/beyond-open-da…

In part 2 of the four-part series of the “Beyond Open Data” blog series, the authors argue that usefulness may be a better measure to evaluate data usage than openness alone, shifting the conversation from access to impact. Read the post here cloudnativegeo.org/blog/2026/04/b…
