Nice news item at @nhnieuws about research on cold air pools in dune slacks by #ihedelft MSc thesis student @JonasNegusse and Pieter Bliek. Cool to see the AHN4 #pointcloud visualisation in #qgis in the video! https://www.nhnieuws.nl/nieuws/323447/van-fascinatie-tot-wetenschappelijk-onderzoek-doorbraak-voor-alkmaarse-vrieskoujager

Don't miss the deadline of 1 April to get your early bird ticket for the #qgisconf in 's-Hertogenbosch!

Meet the beneficiaries of the #QGISHydro Book Fund there: Suzan Dehati from Afghanistan & Zoubida Nemer from Algeria.
@geomenke and I will also be presenting and giving workshops.

Teaching field data collection with #QGIS and #MerginMaps today in the #ihedelft MSc course on Sensing & Geo-processing for Precision Agriculture. Next Tuesday we'll use the Mergin Maps app in the field! Follow the tutorial for free at the GIS OpenCourseWare platform: https://courses.gisopencourseware.org/course/view.php?id=56&section=3

Today we'll start the new module Sensing & Geoprocessing for Precision Agriculture for the #ihedelft MSc program on Water & Sustainable Development. Some new step-by-step tutorials and videos on #QGIS & #MerginMaps are freely available at the #GIS #OpencourseWare platform #GISOCW: https://courses.gisopencourseware.org (first tile)

Last week's workshop on #FAO #WaPOR at #INRAA in Algeria was great! Nice to work with #IHEDelft alumnus Walid Moulahoum & #IWMI colleague Karim Bergaoui to train around 30 participants from the agricultural and water sector on crop #waterproductivity concepts & #opendata analysis in #qgis. Future activities & training needs were defined. Thanks to Riad Mezaour & Imène Emy for the good organisation! https://www.fao.org/land-water/databases-and-software/wapor/en/

Yesterday we had a nice #QGISOpenDay session where #ihedelft MSc students in Water & Sustainable Development got useful tips to improve their catchment maps for the course Water Quality Assessment & Management. #qgis #qgishydro https://youtu.be/UbdxB3mjpZo

New video: Interpolate #groundwater quality data with #QGIS (Thiessen, IDW, kriging). Https://youtu.be/qzV_NaTARIk. Free step-by-step tutorial has been added to the GIS OpenCourseWare platform #gisocw, see https://courses.gisopencourseware.org/course/view.php?id=11. Using these tutorials in #ihedelft MSc courses this month.

Today I've been informed by #ihedelft Rector, Prof. Dr. Eddy Moors, that I've been promoted to Associate Professor in Open Science & Digital Innovation! Looking forward to continue working on these important themes for education, research and capacity development! #openscience #opensource #opendata #openaccess #opencourseware #FAIR

Next week #ihedelft MSc students are going on fieldwork. #gis desk study with #opendata and #opensourcesoftware is important for preparation and planning. Last September I published this free course on fieldwork preparation at the GIS #OpenCourseWare platform: https://courses.gisopencourseware.org/course/view.php?id=46 #qgis #foss4g #osgeo
