Episode notes

Changefog.com's changelog is a weekly, offbeat look at the tech news of the week. This week we're talking about aerial surveys and how they can be used to learn more about an area. We'll also talk about Open Observe, a cloud-based observability platform for logging data on petabyte scale.

Your feed might be dominated by LLMs these days, but there are some amazing things happening in computer vision that you shouldn’t ignore! In this episode, we bring you one of those amazing stories from Gabriel Ortiz, who is working with the government of Cantabria in Spain to automate cartography and apply AI to geospatial analysis. We hear about how AI tooling fits into the GIS workflow, and Gabriel shares some of his recent work (including work that can identify individual people, invasive plant species, building and more from aerial survey data).
