OSM Fresno
In Openstreetmap US, California Fresno area, a controversial [0] series of imports of legal property records (aka PARCEL) are mixed in with other POLYGONS. Many various POLYGON in Fresno now share the tag landuse=residential, both the PARCEL legal records and real building footprint POLYGON, as well as various others. After reviewing the wiki talk page, […]
JSONb First Looks

ACS 5yr Viz Processing
A systematic way to choose, extract and visualize data from the massive American Community Survey 5 Year census product is a challenge. I have written python code to ingest raw inputs into tables, and a small relational engine to handle the verbose naming. An extraction and visualization process is underway… something like the following: 0) […]
Numeric Stats on Bay Area Intersection Counts
In preparing for an upcoming Datathon, a column of data in PostgreSQL numeric format needed formatting for presentation. “Intersection Count” intersection_density_sqkm is a count of street intersections per unit area – a quick way to measure density of the built environment. A table of grid cells (covering the nine-county San Francisco Bay Area) that the […]

Five Colors for Stats
I am building some visualization layers in Geoserver from PostGIS, which requires .sld files (until Geoserver catches up with the CSS styling world – oh wait, look here). It is convenient to show ranges using ColorBrewer2 colors in a set of one plus five.. a color for NoValue, then what I call little0, little1, central […]
PostgreSQL 9.3 plus Hadoop File System
It seems that things just got a little bit more interesting with the release of Pg 9.3
Data Characterization and the Live
People may already know about the OSGeo Live project. Its a great base as a VM since a) it is stable and very well tested, and b) it has much software installed, but in a way that is transparent through install scripts, so customization is as straightforward as it gets.. I was faced with a […]
