#gischat I don't know why I'm coming up short on this - how can I make a map with some polygons separated like this? I'm currently trying it in #ArcGISpro but would be happy to execute it in #QGIS or #rspatial. I hope the answer isn't #Inkscape or similar, but I may go there.

🛰️ I will deliver the next edition of a remote course PROJ on August 2-3 2023.🛰️

Learn about packages sf and terra, and understand the transition from sp and raster. Explore spatial projections and adapt to the PROJ changes.

We are organising a small workshop on “Spatial Data Science across Languages” on Sept 18+19 in Muenster, Germany. The goal is to bring developers and users from R-Spatial, GeoPython and GeoJulia together to discuss shared challenges and interests. The website is https://r-spatial.org/sdsl/ . If you are interested in participating please register through the form found on the website before Aug 7 UTC. #rstats #rspatial #geopython #geojulia

Do you want to learn more about the Geocomputation with R book, its creation, development, and ideas for the future?

Thanks for having us, Oliver!

The #FOSS4G2023 conference includes a talk about the qgisprocess by @florisvdh et al.

The presentation describes how it is now possible to combine the strengths of R and QGIS, and many more!

⚠️ rgdal, rgeos, and maptools won’t be available on CRAN after October 2023. ⚠️

What are the consequences of this change? What do you need to do as a user and as a developer?

"Analytical environments" by @rsbivand

This article describes environments for handling spatial data in #rstats and #python, and how they evolved in the last 20 years.
