Weinigen weten waarom Google ruim 20 jaar geleden in Geodata en GIS is gestapt en dat daarom de cloud oplossingen en datacenters duurzaam zijn. Over deze drive en natuurlijk de GEO/GIS & analyse-tooling, hoe deze aansluit op OpenSource platformen als QGIS en meer krijgen we een tweetal diepgaande presentaties.
Of vraag je je af wat nou de ambitie is van Google en waarom zij zo’n enorme focus hebben op Geo-data en GIS competentie?
Wist je dat de Earth Engine gewoon te koop is? En dat er ook vele Nederlandse organisaties gebruik van maken?
Samen met Google en de Nederlandse Google partner Localyse hebben we een interessante KennisKring bijeenkomst samengesteld.
We zijn te gast op het Google hoofdkantoor in Amsterdam.
Programma
12.45 Walk in
13.30 Welcome
13.40 How and Why Google ‘created’ the location intelligence engine – Victoria Stolpe – regional lead & Roderick Schaefer – Customer engineer| Google
Victoria and Roderick will update us on Earth Engine, Maps & Geoanalytics. Ever since 2005 Google develops tools to analyze the Earth’s surface; designed to map and keep track of the damage caused by humans; It involves so much information that it is impossible for a human being to understand what cause and effect are. So there is a need for tools to be able to do that.
Victoria and Roderick will introduce and update us on the vision, policies and solutions in the Google suite.
14.40 Google Cloud & sustainable datacenters | Harm Hulshof – executive consultant | Google
The goals and objectives of Google are to be able to analyze the Earth’s surface; designed to map and keep track of the damage caused by humans. The humongous collection of geospatial data that comes with this goal brings the need for an environment to be able to do that. And that environment in itself should be sustainable too. How this evolved to the present way Google deals with the datastore and analysis capacity will be enlightend by Harmen.
15.00 Teabreak
15.20 Vegetation monitor & other GEE solutions | Jeroen Aarts – Business Consultant | Localyse
Rijkswaterstaat annually assesses the development of vegetation along the Maas and Rhine in the Netherlands. This is done to prevent obstruction of the river flow in the Delta. Using Google Earth Engine’s vast array of satellite images in the Vegetation Monitor, maintenance organizations and inspection agencies can now monitor larger areas with less capacity, monitor specific areas without being physically present, and monitor in near real time how the vegetation develops.
15.45 Soil for life – Nutriënten Management Instituut | Sven Verweij .- project manager | NMI Agro
Nutrient Management Institute (NMI) is a knowledge and advisory agency. NMI translates technically substantive knowledge about soil into practical tools. Our mission is a sustainable, climate-resilient agriculture in balance with the natural environment. We combine research, practical knowledge and a wealth of data to contribute to solving the complex issues facing our society. Sven shows us how the Google Earth Engine and Cloud help in this research by gathering data and using machine learning models?
16.30 Places – actual data on the spot available | Jeffrey Benning – country manager | Localyse NL
Jeffrey will share a show reel of Dutch business insights. Under which solutions for “natuurwaarden monitoring and traffic/logistics applications. Next to that he will address the actuality of the public data and how Places can add crucial value to your process / monitoring / reporting challenges. What do 50 miljoen updates per day mean?
