  🎉We've just passed 50% of the crowdfunding goal for bringing native #hydrology tools in #qgis. Thanks for all donations so far🙏🏼 If you rely on hydrological workflows in QGIS or simply want to strengthen #OpenSource #gis, please consider supporting the effort so these tools land in QGIS 4.4. 👉 Full details & donation: https://www.qwast-gis.com/l/crowdfunding-native-qgis-tools-for-hydrology/ #OSGeo #FOSS4G @northroadgeo@fosstodon.org

  Public sector #GIS users, your input matters! The QGIS Trainer Network is running an international survey on how public institutions use and teach open‑source GIS. Results will be presented at the QGIS User Conference 2026 in Laax. 👉 Take the survey here: https://nx84716.your-storageshare.de/apps/forms/s/yZGamxYmwoSFcN9GmwymcBcs #QGIS #OSGeo #OpenSource #FOSS4G

  #WebODM has officially split from #OpenDroneMap. Official announcement from WebODM https://webodm.org/blog/announcement/ I made a short video showing the full workflow: 💻 Install WebODM with the new native installers 📸 import drone images ⚙️ process (orthomosaic, DSM, point cloud, 3D model) 🖼️ view in 2D/3D ⬇️ download results 🗺️ open in QGIS If you want a user‑friendly, #opensource alternative to proprietary photogrammetry tools, WebODM is highly recommended. 🎥 Video: https://videos.qwast-gis.co...

  I just passed 35K subscribers on my YouTube channel and I'm grateful for everyone following my open‑source geo work. But for those who prefer to avoid big tech: my videos are also published on #QwastTube, my own #PeerTube instance. ▶️ QwastTube: https://videos.qwast-gis.com/ ▶️ YouTube (if you still use it): https://www.youtube.com/@HansvanderKwast #FOSS4G #OpenSource #PeerTube #DigitalSovereignty #QGIS #GIS #WebODM #PCRaster #RemoteSensing

  🗓Save the date: 8–9 juli! Na 9 jaar keert #FOSS4GNL terug naar Groningen, waar het in 2017 begon. Twee dagen vol #opensource geo: hands‑on workshops + een dag presentaties voor developers, toepassers, beheerders en beleidsmakers. Samen met de @Jantina_Tammes_School bouwen @osgeonl en @qgisnl aan het programma & side‑events. Ideeën en helpende handen zijn welkom!

  I’ve published a new video showing how the AI Edit plugin by #TerraLab can be used to visualise spatial planning scenarios in #QGIS. From replacing an airport to simulating floods, adding green roofs, reopening canals, or generating a Dutch polder, it’s all there, with impressive visual results. ▶️ QwastTube: https://videos.qwast-gis.com/w/iUHsR4ceNzcP3d1B287sJ9 #QGIS #GeoAI #GenAI #SpatialPlanning #GIS

  #30DayMapChallenge Day 5: Earth🌍 I mapped gas fields, mines & earthquakes in the Netherlands. #Groningen’s gas extraction and #Limburg’s mining caused seismic risks, which js now a political issue around damage & compensation. I made this while teaching #QGIS & @merginmaps in Leek (Groningen) for my company #QWAST, hired by #Fervent & #Geo2Meet. The course is part of a reskilling project for GIS jobs. #GIS
