Did you know that with 2 Python libraries, 6 lines of code and around 15 seconds, you can load satellite data from anywhere in the world?
This is so much easier than it used to be!

I guess I need to get over my issue with people saying "open source" when a thing doesn't have source code.
So open source is now a synonym for accessible under an open license.

ESA's fancy new cloud probability overlaid on an RGB image. Here you can see the beach is very high in the "probably" cloud band, whereas the cloud is nodata, so zero, hence "probably" not.

Inside Hurricane Milton, @saildrone reported wave height of 28.12 feet and wind gusts as strong as 75.95 mph while 40 nautical miles from the center of the storm. This research represents a collaborative endeavor to better understand the role of the ocean in hurricanes.
I reckon @ANZ_AU's methods of multi-factor auth are dumb. Using voice to "prove my identity" is fragile, and kind of embarrassing. Their "shield" app is required on the web, because you can't use your voice in a browser, and I really don't know why it needs to be a separate app.
We're running another @cloudnativegeo for Earth Observation workshop, this time at the Hobart @FOSS4G_Oceania Conference on Tuesday the 5th of November.
Come along and learn about new ways of using Python to access and analyse EO data and it's only $100!
