    FGI Research Seminar: New methods to explore, share, and use different types of geospatial data

    9.12.2025 at 15.00–16.00 (EET)
    Online
    Espoo

    This week Dr. Mohammad Imangholiloo will give a presentation, where he will talk about new methods to explore, share, and use different types of geospatial data.

    Today, geospatial data can appear in various forms—such as images, shape drawings (including points, lines, and polygons), or 3D point clouds. These 3D point clouds are becoming increasingly common, but they often come as extremely large files. Typically, users must download the entire dataset before they can work with it, which requires time and computing resources. Dr. Imangholiloo’s research focuses on developing new methods to explore and share this data online without the need to download everything first. By creating innovative tools and methods, he aims to make access faster and easier, enabling multiple users to interact with the data simultaneously. This research will support new technologies like digital twins and improve data-driven decision-making.

    FGI Research Seminar: From FAIR to fAIr with CARE in spatial data and modeling

    16.12.2025 at 15.00–16.00 (EET)
    Online
    Espoo

    Our final speaker of the year is Dr. Blessing Kavhu. The topic of his presentation is “From FAIR to fAIr with CARE in spatial data and modeling”.

    Dr. Kavhu will demonstrate how Large Language Models and open-source geospatial tools can accelerate the FAIRification of spatial data and models, making them more Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable in spatial data infrastructures. He will also outline responsible implementation pathways guided by the CARE principles (Collective benefit, Authority to control, Responsibility, Ethics) to ensure equity, ethics, and community stewardship.
