Without GPS: EU researchers develop satellite-independent navigation system
With Ranging Mode (R-Mode), the German Aerospace Center DLR is working with partners to develop an alternative to satellite-based navigation systems.
heise online · Without GPS: EU researchers develop satellite-independent navigation system
Made some progress on my script to compare gps / gpx tracks.
It now loops over my workouts and gives me the f-score (frechet distance) in a neat dataframe so I can then compare the stats on similar workouts.
I still need to decide on a proper f-score threshold, but for what I have seen so far it looks like less than 0,002
More to come!
I can now compare two gps or gpx tracks to see if they are the same 
Why is that useful? I will be able to compare activities on the same track! I am running faster? Slower ? How is the cadence? ….
Too tired to continue now, maybe tomorrow if I have time!

Es funktionierte nicht auf Anhieb, musste ich doch zunächst die GPS Sensor Baudrate von 9.600 auf 38.400 ändern, und das Erstellen der Kartenausschnitte (5 Stunden) und das auf die SD-Karte schreiben (nochmal 4 Stunden) hat ebenfalls "ein wenig" gedauert, aber schlussendlich ist mein T-Deck einsatzbereit 
#SaudiArabia Buys #PokémonGo , and Probably All of Your Location Data
The companies’ collective blogs make it seem like #NianticSpatial —a data business—is going to become a totally separate entity, but Scopely’s direct, $50 million investment in it suggests that monetizing #Pokémon Go players’ location data and #AR camera scanning data is very much still part of the plan.

Les gens qui font de la carto pour #OpenStreetMap, vous sauriez si on peut utiliser Josm (ou autre) pour dessiner des polygones selon des dimensions connues ? (un peu comme sur Solidworks)
Concrètement, je voudrais dessiner un nouveau bâtiment qui n'est pas encore sur le cadastre, ni sur aucune vue aérienne, mais j'ai un télémètre laser et du temps libre donc je pourrais prendre toutes ses mesures et faire un plan de masse sur papier, mais il faudrait ensuite que je puisse le reporter sur OSM...
Autre question en lien : vous auriez un bon récepteur #GNSS / #GPS submétrique (mais plutôt léger / compact) à conseiller ? 
"Cynically in mid 2024, the government also gave GPs the green-light to make up the government’s shortfall in capitation funding by hiking up the fees that GPs can charge their patients, by up to 7.76%.
That’s right. GPs practices under financial pressure were being told to extract higher user-pays charges from people already finding it prohibitively expensive to take themselves or family members to a doctor."
