So I received some random email from the USGS correcting a link on my website...which was on a QGIS tutorial.....then I received an email from the person that initiated the it all. That made me happy - I needed that today. I put tutorials up because I may die one day and people need to know parts of what's stuck in my head. Not everything - just parts. #qgis
With @merginmaps you can use Position Tracking and Streaming Mode when you're mapping in the field. This video that I made for the #MerginMaps YouTube channel explains the difference and shows how to digitize survey line and polygon layers using streaming mode: https://youtu.be/069-fXNqyJY?si=ao9VzU9a92jb9I5v
It also has some nice shots of the Kinderdijk UNESCO World Heritage Site!
This is Bright Angel, a light colored rock formation in the ancient Neretva Vallis riverbed; the next scientific target for #Perseverance .
Looking at all those loose rocks on the steep slope above it, it's good that the geologically interesting parts are (I guess) those farthest from them.

The wait is finally over! We recently launched a few major updates to our web Dashboard and Mobile App including a completely new UI, improved forms and button layouts. Check out this great overview with @hansakwast and Tomas Mizera to find out more:
New location for #Perseverance on Sol 1144, RMC 52.1950.
This may be the last location visible by #Ingenuity's RTE camera, as the rover has now reached the theoretical limit of its field-of-view (cyan line). The #MarsHelicopter has been programmed to capture one RTE image every sol for as long as it is able to wake up every sol perform its routine of gathering environmental and system data, as a stationary testbed.
Three fully-remote #jobs available at @lutraconsulting, working on the @merginmaps platform for collecting geospatial field data on your mobile devices.
New location for #Perseverance on Sol 1143, RMC 52.1700, presumably still within #Ingenuity's field-of-view. It appears there may be as many as 3 frames of the rover crossing the FOV of the color RTE camera of the #MarsHelicopter, now a stationary testbed collecting images, temperature and other data on a solly basis from its final location at Vallinor Hills.
#Perseverance moved to the center of the area which is most probably visible by #Ingenuity, and it could appear in one or more of the color RTE images the #MarsHelicopter is capturing every sol, if everything is going according to plan.
