Other design decisions proved less foresighted, and as early as 2019 the Steering Council were discussing fundamental limitations that would require major architectural changes to properly address.\r\n\r\nDiscussions around these limitations and the steps required to address them largely stalled until 2022 when the first draft of an ODCv2 road map was published and subsequently refined through consultation with the Steering Council and the broader ODC user community.\r\n\r\nThe ODCv2 roadmap has three major areas:\r\n\r\n    1. Enhancements to the ODC index to allow faster search and more efficient indexing and easier index management;\r\n    2. Reunifying/re-aligning datacube-core with the odc-geo and odc-stac utilities\r\n    3. The ability of the Open Data Cube architecture to scale to significantly larger volumes and rates of data\r\n\r\nWith a new generation of satellites on the horizon, offering faster return times, higher spatial resolution and higher spectrality (not just open access Landsat Next, but also the hyperspectral satellites) the third area quickly became an important focus of these discussions.\r\n\r\nSince the publication of the ODCv2 roadmap, work to implement it has been progressively picking up pace, at both Geoscience Australia and CSIRO.\r\n\r\nThis talk will provide an overview of the history of the Open Data Cube to date, the current status of ODC development and the improvements (and migration headaches) that users can look forward to in upcoming major datacube releases.", "recording_license": "", "do_not_record": false, "persons": [{"code": "AAMFFL", "name": "Paul Haesler", "avatar": "https://talks.staging.osgeo.org/media/avatars/avatar-2024_Mnbdi0M.jpg", "biography": "Paul is a Canberra based software engineer.

Digital Twin's key differentiator lies in its integration of near real-time data analytics via IoT sensor connectivity, yet this potential remains largely untapped, revealing a critical gap in exploiting this technology fully. This research addresses this gap by developing a comprehensive RDT framework tailored for near real-time flood modeling. The framework integrates near real-time data streams, enabling advanced analytics and unlocking Digital Twin's true potential in flood modeling and disaster event monitoring. Key outcomes include an integrated back-end spatial database, a coupled physical city, and digital space model, along with a functional front-end flood interface. The research aligns with Gemini Principles, emphasizing data interoperability, federation, and maintaining an information feedback loop. It configures near real-time IoT sensor connections, implements event triggers, and delivers 3D visualizations in easily accessible formats. The study tackles critical questions surrounding effective integration of IoT sensor data, identification of crucial flood modeling parameters, and real-time quantification of flood event impacts.\r\nIn the first part of the study, a tailored RDT framework for real-time flood modeling is developed, emphasizing IoT sensor connectivity.

This research drives the application of Digital Twin technology in real-time flood modeling, ultimately enhancing disaster response strategies.\r\nIn the second part of the study, an immersive interaction component is introduced to enhance the usability and effectiveness of the RDT framework. Leveraging virtual reality (VR) and game engine technologies, an immersive interface is developed to enable stakeholders to engage with the flood digital twin in a highly intuitive and interactive manner. Users can navigate virtual environments, visualize flood scenarios, and interact with simulation results in real-time. This immersive interaction component enhances stakeholder understanding of flood risks, facilitates collaborative decision-making, and strengthens community resilience.

The Geological Survey of PNG undertook 1:250 000 mapping of the south-west Fly Platform region of PNG not mapped since pre-independence. Due to the vast swampy wetlands, weather, climate, heavy rainfall, inaccessibility, and the shear size of the area, physical data collection by traversing and walking is very challenging. Geological interpretation of different rock types, and the contacts of different rock types, landforms, and structural faults was done wholly through the use of remote sensing data and the use of open-source software QGIS. Free radar, sentinel and DEM provided by USGS and European Space Agency were manipulated in QGIS and ArcMap to interpret landforms, rocks, and structures. Particularly band processing was done in QGIS, where swampy wetlands were better defined. Radar images provided clues of landforms characteristic of different rock types and hillshade and relief raster data processed from DEM were useful in interpreting geological structures. This concluded regional trends and structural relationships. The outcome was a pre-field geological map, from this target areas were generated to confirm interpretations made. Field mapping was helicopter-supported. While on the ground, QField, an open-source mobile software was trialed to collect data. Due to time constrains and helicopter waiting time, QField was not effectively used for data capture on the ground, however, its use was appreciated in helicopter aerial survey. Vector files of the pre-field geological map were placed in a geopackage file and viewed in real-time with moving locations seen in the air.

Within the assessment, thirty-six of 105 surveyed community members (34%) reported negative impacts of mining on their village managed fisheries following establishment of river extraction operations. \r\n\r\nMonitoring the impacts of mineral extraction on increased sediment loading downstream in marine ecosystems is challenging given the dynamic nature of rapidly changing water quality. Furthermore, there are additional challenges in disaggregating the influences of mining from rainfall-runoff dynamics and other sources of turbidity and sediment transport. \r\n\r\nThis study first seeks to detect mineral extraction activities using Digital Earth Pacific (DEP). The DEP algorithms use random forest and logistic regression for classification of mineral extraction activities with change detection to identify areas impacted by recent mineral extraction activities between two points in time. \r\n\r\nTo assess the associated impacts of these mineral extraction activities on marine ecosystems, the study combines remote sensing of both terrestrial and marine environments. In future further sediment transport modelling can be run over marine ecosystems.

However, this data is expensive and challenging to obtain at scale using drone or aerial survey methods, resulting in a \u201cmissing link\u201d between land-based elevation and marine bathymetry data. Freely available imagery from earth observation satellites like Landsat and Sentinel-2 represent a powerful alternative resource for mapping coastal zones across large regions and through time. However, previous applications of earth observation satellite data have been restricted to low resolution and single timesteps, limiting their ability to map highly complex and constantly changing coastal environments. \r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nThis talk will introduce Digital Earth Australia (DEA) Intertidal, a new open-source method for mapping Australia\u2019s coastal regions in unprecedented spatial and temporal detail. Our approach combines free and open satellite imagery from Geoscience Australia\u2019s DEA program with advanced geospatial analysis tools from the open-source Open Data Cube and DEA Tools Python packages. Our approach greatly decreases the volume of satellite imagery required to generate accurate coastal elevation models, allowing us to extract fine-scale coastal features that could not be resolved by previous mapping methods and track how Australia\u2019s dynamic coastal regions have changed from 2016 to today. \r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nOur approach is entirely based on open-source data and code, allowing it to be applied to any coastal location on the planet. We demonstrate how our workflows can be applied both within Australia using cloud-hosted satellite data from DEA, and externally using Microsoft Planetary Computer data loaded using STAC metadata and the Open Data Cube.

The author will present the idea of creating reusable templates that can guide solution creation and deployment.", "description": "Tenders for spatial solutions, eg from Councils, are often couched in terms of the provision of a single, integrated, enterprise solution.\r\n\r\nResponding to such tenders using ESRI software only is easier because ESRI markets its software as providing a single packaged enterprise solution in which all of the spatial functionality that might be envisioned for an organisation are addressed; from back office to front office. Along with ESRI software there is training, software versioning, and support which are key to supporting a packaged solution. (I will not discuss how well ESRI provides a truly enterprise solution \u2013 that is outside the scope of this paper.)\r\n\r\nCrafting a single integrated, version controlled, and supportable solution using FOSS4G components is challenging because FOSS4G projects, such as GeoServer, PostGIS, OpenLayers, and qGIS, are managed independently of each other. Additionally, a solution might have to be crafted from heterogeneous components as the situation dictates: PostGIS may not be deployable where an organisation insists that all database storage has to be managed by SQL Server.  So when one adds commercial software into the mix, such as database vendors or ESRI components, or specific technology is required as part of the solution (eg a ReactJS only client tier), or the whole stack has to be proven to work within a single internationalised language environment, creating an integrated solution becomes a challenge. \r\n\r\nYes, all the components so described can be downloaded, integrated, version controlled, documented and supportable but this is not easy and, even worse, not easily replicated to other organisations by those whose focus is only on a single point solution. \r\n\r\nSo how can one provide an integrated, \u201centerprise\u201d solution from any one set of components that is shareable and reusable? And how can one do so via a packaged solution that has resolved integration issues, and manages software versioning etc (provision of training and support is also outside the scope of this paper)?\r\n\r\nThe author does not pretend to have an answer to this but suggests that a way forward for enterprise solutions using FOSS4G software may be via a different sort of FOSS4G project which aims at guiding enterprise solutions architecture via a set of templates that can be used as a basis for creating and deploying an open, but integrated, solution.\r\n\r\nThis is what he calls the \u201cSpatial Enterprise Architecture Template\u201d or SEAT, project.\r\nA template might be created that describes how to use SQL Server Spatial, GeoServer and qGIS, to implement a full spatial data editing and versioning solution using fully tested components (eg qGIS plugins for versioning that used SQL Server temporal data management). Another template might address how to use PostgreSQL partitioning within a PostGIS, qGIS, qGIS Server technology stack in which managing software versions is addressed.\r\n\r\nThese templates are not proprietary but are themselves free and open source (perhaps covered by Creative Commons licensing).\r\n\r\nIt is perhaps a bit bold as to call for interested parties to implement SEAT, but he would be interested to start a conversation with anyone that sees merit in the project and might join in evolving the idea.", "recording_license": "", "do_not_record": false, "persons": [{"code": "9MLJAC", "name": "Simon Greener", "avatar": null, "biography": "To be added", "public_name": "Simon Greener", "guid": "4544c8a4-49cc-5bb8-a725-ea11f58ba0ed", "url": "https://talks.staging.osgeo.org/foss4g-sotm-oceania-2024/speaker/9MLJAC/"}], "links": [], "feedback_url": "https://talks.staging.osgeo.org/foss4g-sotm-oceania-2024/talk/QN9HLY/feedback/", "origin_url": "https://talks.staging.osgeo.org/foss4g-sotm-oceania-2024/talk/QN9HLY/", "attachments": []}, {"guid": "57ae90b6-3993-51b1-b18a-16fd35c7752b", "code": "7KJUQC", "id": 3037, "logo": null, "date": "2024-11-07T11:50:00+11:00", "start": "11:50", "duration": "00:25", "room": "Anglesea Room", "slug": "foss4g-sotm-oceania-2024-3037-geoscience-documentation-made-easy-the-open-source-knowledge-hub", "url": "https://talks.staging.osgeo.org/foss4g-sotm-oceania-2024/talk/7KJUQC/", "title": "Geoscience Documentation Made Easy \u2013 The Open-Source Knowledge Hub", "subtitle": "", "track": "Talk", "type": "Talk", "language": "en", "abstract": "The DEA Knowledge Hub is an open-source documentation platform designed specifically for geoscientists, and we invite you to fork our code.", "description": "Last year, the Digital Earth Australia program of Geoscience Australia  embarked on the project of revamping our documentation sites.

As a part of that ongoing program CHS commissioned IIC Technologies to develop a Quantum Geographic Information System (QGIS) Extension to Help Create Bathymetric Community Maps. The CHS desired to provide these communities, particularly those in the remote northern areas of Canada, with the ability to create \u2018Community Maps/charts\u2019 using their own data in areas where no large-scale charting was available. The objective of the extension is to greatly streamline the processing and visualisation of bathymetric data collected by the public for their own purposes and to encourage bathymetric data gathering in these remote areas ultimately improving safety of navigation. \r\nThe UMap Plugin that has been developed, allows any user to drag and drop existing bathymetric data, newly collected bathymetry from simple bathy data loggers and other source information into a tool that automatically interprets and visualises all supplied inputs. Although not an official chart, the system automatically generates a \u2018chart-like\u2019 community map product that includes colour-coded depth areas, depth contours and a selection of soundings making understanding of local bathymetry truly effortless.\r\nThis free plug-in is already available for public use in the QGIS repository under IIC Technologies (https://github.com/umap-iic/UMap) and, although it was commissioned by the CHS for use in Canada, it can be utilised anywhere in the world as long as there is a suitable vector shoreline and bathymetric data for the area of interest. \r\nThe tool is super-easy to use (please watch the short uTube clip for a demonstration https://youtu.be/QiiiLgZRaO4) and the public are encouraged to utilise it in their areas of interest.\r\n\r\nAn excellent article on the trial undertaken on UMap by CHS has just been released in the IHR , and makes for very good reading if you want to know more about the communities it was developed for and how they will benefit from its use (see below).", "recording_license": "", "do_not_record": false, "persons": [{"code": "MFJA7L", "name": "DAVID CROSSMAN", "avatar": "https://talks.staging.osgeo.org/media/avatars/MFJA7L_PbCpdaT.webp", "biography": "David Crossman \r\nManaging Director IIC Technologies Australasia\r\n\r\nDavid has worked in the Hydrographic and Geospatial disciplines for all of his professional career.
