Some visual reports from #intergeo – the leading geotech #Expo in Europe.
The main results of my ground survey are that no expo in Germany works without beer 🍺 (confirmed by Natasha from @cartetika_channel).
Geoalert was featured at the #Geocloud's booth as we've configured Mapflow–QGIS to be used with their virtual instances.
I've met with the data partners – those we have long-term cooperation with and those, with whom we've just started conceptualizing and discussing the new products. 🤝

AI, #GeoAI, Mapping AI, whatever you call it, is a hot topic, yeah. Even though I missed most of the presentations at the open stage I've come across a few amazing and meaningful collaborations between AI developers and Geospatial survey companies.
Very few software startups were presented. The reason number one – the event is occupied by vendors. The next reason... well, check the #Cesium-acquired-by-Bentley's booth. You know, when there are guys with aerial drones, airships and robodogs who are carrying the preinstalled geodesic equipment it doesn’t make a great impression to showcase your slides on a plasma. 😅

🚀 #Mapflow major update – Project Sharing!

Mapflow is often used by corporate users who juggle multiple accounts or share a single account within their team.

While we've been keen on implementation of some collaborative tools to encourage corporate users to create team accounts, we started with team balance. It allows Team Owner to share credits with the team members and manage the balance.

What’s New?

Today we're thrilled to announce a major update that takes team collaboration to the next level by providing the Project sharing functionality to all Mapflow users.

The workflow is pretty simple:

1) You can share your project with anyone in the Team and assign his role as needed.

✍️ Note, if you don't have a Team account you can also share your project with anyone but with read-only rights. So the other user won't be able to run the workflows but to see the history and preview the results on the map.

2) Your collaborators will see the shared projects in their dashboard and do whatever they want according to their project role.

The Team creation is still limited to non-corporate users but we'd love to help you get started. Just drop a message to our support team, and we can help you organize team workflows in Mapflow.

We’re looking to implement more collaborative tools and we'd love your feedback on this new feature. Try it out, share your thoughts, and enjoy a smoother AI mapping experience! 🌍

The Mapflow Team

The past month was quite usually busy for the Geoalert team.
1) We finished #Mapflow 2.0 and Project sharing milestones (w/o the Team billing so far which will arrive next)
2) -2 team members and +2 team members: Hrant and Manap. So the #team size remains stable )) We are looking for more people to join our team in November-December but the hiring process is not going so fast
3) We started planning our next team and partner #meeting this year, stay tuned 📢📢📢
4) We keep working on custom projects: good progress with the implementation, low progress with the storytelling about the project results. Couldn't we update our blog more frequently?
Here we'd like to highlight that the validation speed of the Mapflow custom project results has increased x3 times, if not more. This showcases the effective human-in-the-loop validation where we use our own platform, while cartographers use automatic results and improve them.
5) We have too many milestones in progress and keep underestimating our timeline with the internal product releases. Not so cool.
6) We started doing yet another collaboration with the data provider partners and made some plans before the end of the year - to be announced later on. This time it's not like some developers <> big guys on behalf of the provider, but more like a partnership and investment initiative. We will see.
