Mobility comes in various formats: on the road, in the air, on the rivers, and on rails – just to name a few. It is targeted either for commercial transport, for commuting or for leisure. And it is changing continuously...

At GEONATIVES we spend some time to improve simulation by making them more realistic and therefore more reliable and spread the word about it. Is it worth to attend conferences which seem to have always similar presentations about hese topics? Yes, it is...

When it comes to assuring functionality of complex systems, minor causes may have major implications impacting credibility of simulation results. From real-world situations, we would like to postulate that simulation become more realistic in how it resembles individual agents...

On March 30th, 2026, the World Data Organization (WDO) held its inaugural assembly in Beijing China...

A new trend enters the playground for geospatial data exchange, with the potential to disrupt at least some of our common application use cases and workflows...

Sometimes while looking outside the box we find interesting relations to geodata. This time we came across a research from 2010 working on the relation of how our mother tongue impacts the way we locate things and put them in order related to time...

We could hardly have wished for a better end to our 2025 series of posts than by (virtually) sitting together with Michael Scholz, research associate and spatial data cruncher at the German Aerospace Center (DLR e.V.) in Braunschweig...

With the advancing of ADAS to ADS, new requirements arise towards map data. Also new tools such as Language Models influence map creation. Let's read the map of map creation...

It’s time to get scared scared again... this time by the Mother Nature's crazy structures that shows us it’s creativity and let us stun...

For every problem there is a solution and if we deal with geodata there should be also a spatial intelligence tool. This principle applies to "AI domain" as well and Niantic has a very good foundation for starting a promising enterprise to build a large geospatial model (LGM)...

Artificial Intelligence has made it into most areas of our life. It’s no surprise that the geodata domain is widely affected by it, too. In this article, we try to give our first impression on the current situation and activities...
