It's been a pleasure contributing to the "Spatial Data Science Languages" preprint spear-headed by @edzer together with @martinfleis @paleolimbot @robinlovelace @nowosad @josi @loreabad6
fosstodon.org/@martinfleis/114

FosstodonMartin Fleischmann (@martinfleis@fosstodon.org)"Spatial Data Science Languages: commonalities and needs" - that a preprint 11(!) of us wrote together as one of many outcomes of two workshops held in Münster (2023) and in Prague (2024). It summarised where we are, what we share between R, Python and Julia, what are the common challenges, lessons and recommendations - https://arxiv.org/abs/2503.16686 Big thanks belongs especially to @edzer@mastodon.social who kickstarted the whole initiative! And to all the others who participated! #rspatial #geopython #juliageo

We have two fully-funded PhD projects in spatial data science at the University of St Andrews:

Project 1, supervised by Dr Tania Mendo:

Bridging the divide between distant water fleets and coastal communities in the biggest unregulated fishery in the world
iapetus2.ac.uk/studentships/br
This project will use spatial data science to identify illegal fishing activities from vessel tracking data and satellite imagery.

If you liked our last year's short paper on #DeepLearning from #TrajectoryData, you'll love our new #preprint even more:

📝 "MobilityDL: A Review of Deep Learning From Trajectory Data"
arxiv.org/abs/2402.00732

arXiv.orgMobilityDL: A Review of Deep Learning From Trajectory DataTrajectory data combines the complexities of time series, spatial data, and (sometimes irrational) movement behavior. As data availability and computing power have increased, so has the popularity of deep learning from trajectory data. This review paper provides the first comprehensive overview of deep learning approaches for trajectory data. We have identified eight specific mobility use cases which we analyze with regards to the deep learning models and the training data used. Besides a comprehensive quantitative review of the literature since 2018, the main contribution of our work is the data-centric analysis of recent work in this field, placing it along the mobility data continuum which ranges from detailed dense trajectories of individual movers (quasi-continuous tracking data), to sparse trajectories (such as check-in data), and aggregated trajectories (crowd information).
