<p>Dear colleagues,</p>
<p>this is a quite shot term announcement, but I was able to
organize a workshop entitled "GDAL/OGR in practical use" given by
<strong>Jakob Miksch</strong> (see <a
href="https://jakobmiksch.eu/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer
noopener">https://jakobmiksch.eu/</a>) this Wednesday afternoon,
at 17:15 o'clock.</p>
<p>AS you will probalby know theGeospatial Data Abstraction Library
(<strong>GDAL</strong>) is an open-source computer software
library for reading and writing raster and vector geospatial data
formats. With various useful command line interface utilities for
data translation and processing it supports projections and
transformations, using the PROJ library. The <strong>OGR</strong>
library (OGR Simple Features Library), which is part of the GDAL
source tree, provides a similar ability for simple features vector
graphics data. Hence these tools might be very useful for
processing of geospatial data of any format in your professional
carreer.</p>
<p>Jakob is OSGeo Charter Member and OpenStreetMap contributor and
builds geospatial applications at <a href="https://meggsimum.de/"
target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Meggsimum </a>in
Mutterstadt, Germany. Mainly with JavaScript, PostGIS,
command-line, Python, GDAL/OGR and QGIS.</p>
<p>I am sure we will get a useful introduction into the usage of
GDAL and OGR in <strong>the Zoom meeting</strong>. Please contact
me for login details.<br>
</p>
Best regards - Franz-Josef <br>
