Now it's easy to stream GeoParquet into tippecanoe! gpq convert --to=geojson in.geoparquet | tippecanoe -o out.pmtiles Thanks @tschaub for adding stream output to https://t.co/GYGxgV27RV! (pictured: Cairo buildings visualization from @cloudnativegeo/@source_coop/@opencholmes)

Really cool to see them advancing the usability of SQL, too

I can't believe I survived without @DuckDB for so long.  Such an awesome piece of tech.  Feels indispensable already.

BREAKING: A Montana judge sided with young activists who said state agencies were violating their right to a clean environment by permitting fossil fuel development without considering its effect on the climate.

Thanks to @Jtmiclat, you can now configure the compression used when creating GeoParquet files. The default used to be ZSTD, but we've changed it to GZIP for greater compatibility with existing readers. Use the `--compression` option to chose your favorite codec.

The GPQ utility has a new home: https://t.co/3m1zvMTQu0. See https://t.co/XmYjSVN2Ao to create GeoParquet files right in your browser. The latest CLI release can also generate a validation report and describe a file's metadata and schema.

📢 Web mapping app developers! 🗺️🚀 XYZ tiling scheme has been the go-to for web mapping. OGC Tiles takes tiled map data to the next level. 🌍🔀 @tschaub introduced you to projections, zoom levels, and moving XYZ tile sets to OGC Tiles. https://t.co/N0PnLXYtDb

Looking for a mapping library to use with React? We’ve released `@planet/maps`. It wraps OpenLayers classes in declarative React components, making it easy to integrate mapping functionality into your existing apps.

@GeoParquet 1.0.0-beta.1 is released! It's been an awesome collaborative effort and we're keen to get one more round of feedback before 1.0.0. Check out https://t.co/D04Dkhsqu9 and our new website https://t.co/EJvukALyLJ for more details. Thanks to everyone who contributed!

If you're wondering what happened to @openlayers, it looks like Twitter locked the account for being too young. But it has been spotted on https://t.co/zHrYra0HSw (where apparently they allow underage mapping libraries).

🚀 Latest release includes ∙ improved support for repeated values ∙ better handling of nested columns ∙ support for reading multiple geometries ∙ graceful handling of more bad json

If anybody is working with #Parquet in #Golang and has thoughts on an API for the module, let me know.

This was my hackweek project @planet last week - so expect some rough edges. Create tickets for any issues or ideas you might have.

Interested in trying out @GeoParquet but can't find any data to play with? Check out https://t.co/f5iLZVWS33 for converting GeoJSON to GeoParquet right in your browser. Or, for a CLI, see

🏆 We have a winner🎉 - Planetary Computer is now CORS-friendly (thanks @lossyrob). Easy STAC asset rendering (with reprojection support) coming to a mapping library near you soon! https://t.co/hPqXiac9jI

LandsatLook is a strong contender if we consider Landsat as well - but its COGs are also not CORS-friendly :(

Any other candidates?
