2025 GDAL User Survey is now active for the entire month of December! Visit gdal.org/survey/ & tell the project how you use it, where you get help, what it should do in the future, & how/if it should use LLMs going forward. (optionally) give us your email, we'll even enter you to win a GDAL t-shirt!
2025 GDAL User Survey
In 2024, the GDAL User Survey solicited feedback to help focus GDAL Sponsorship Program activities. Your contribution mattered. Last years' results triggered the project to embark on the GDAL CLI Mode...

just ran a Sentinel 2 query for every 100k grid square for March this year and pulled out unique instances there are 28696 unique grid codes

One thing I appreciate about {targets} is the robustness of the pipeline: if I need to stop a long, compute-intensive process to run something else (or, in this case, I resize a pane and make the IDE crash🤷♂️), I don't need to worry about corrupted state: just restart R and tar_make() away!

The `enable_shiny_hover()` function in mapgl for #rstats lets you use your mouse's position as a Shiny input.
Be judicious with how you use it... but it unlocks so many possibilities for mapping your data.
Example: Census tracts that restyle based on your cursor position

Day 6 of the #30DayMapChallenge (3D), a render of Mount Rainier with a realistic atmospheric skydome generated w/ a lat/long/datetime, rendered entirely in #RStats with #rayshader and #rayrender! The atmosphere is annoyingly realistic: I now have to dial in the exposure depending on the time of day!

there's a backlog of file urls, normal use is target_this_year, but every now and then I want the prior target_all_years to invalidate and do a full scan

I can see {targets} evolving past tar_assign to an actual new language syntax that's just R (its successor)
I bet some are already thinking about this #rstats it's been an inexorable series of improvs and the foundation's so solid
This is the edge, actual reproducibility and scaling

I'm guessing that R6 classes are implemented with environment shenanigans which is why base R plots can't be updated with class methods. Regardless, what's the best way to modify an existing plot within a method call? Is there a conventional pattern for passing the global environment or the like?

Does targets::tar_cancel()/tarchetypes::tar_skip() not work with dynamic branching? I get "invalid 'description' argument" when downstream arguments depend on the cancelled target. My expectation would be that the cancellation would propagate to any downstream targets.
