Spatial Thoughts Academy

Agentic Coding for Geospatial gave me a working method. During the course I used an AI coding agent to build a complete building-detection pipeline end to end in a Colab notebook: tiling a very high-resolution drone orthomosaic (3cm), reprojecting each tile to its local UTM zone, resampling to match a pre-trained GeoAI model’s training resolution, running inference, and saving the results as GeoJSON. When the pipeline produced zero detections partway through, the agent diagnosed the actual cause, tiles that had shrunk below the model’s working size after resampling, rather than papering over it, and fixed it. That is the kind of practical, tool-grounded workflow I was looking for. I recommend the course to anyone doing applied GIS work who wants to move faster without losing rigor.

I am very happy to have taken the Cloud Native Remote Sensing with Python course with Ujaval. This is the sixth course I have taken with him, and I will definitely continue learning from him. In my opinion, he is the best educator in the geospatial technology field. He is also an excellent person: kind, approachable, and always willing to help and answer questions, even after the courses have ended. I highly recommend this course and Ujaval as an instructor.

Even more than the nice, friendly class format that Ujaval and Vigna always run, the really cool thing is how the class is current with the relevant, current best practices. For instance, in this class session, what was so nice to learn was the approach to use AI tools in Python programming in a useful, careful, and appropriate way.

I am delighted to have taken another course with Spatial Thoughts. My expectations were fully met, and I gained valuable insights into using scripting in QGIS, automation workflows, and developing custom graphical user interfaces. The course is well-structured and offers real opportunities for growth. The assignments are thoughtfully designed to deepen both theoretical knowledge and practical experience.

I can safely say that this course was one of the most useful courses on QGIS that I have taken so far. I have learned a great deal from writing scripts and automating workflows to building plugins. The instructors are very knowledgeable and quite cooperative, and this makes the course even more interesting. Highly recommended course (PyQGIS Masterclass)

What a great course. It’s comprehensive, well-paced, interactive, and Ujaval and Vigna are excellent at delivering its content. So many additional resources are provided as well that pique your curiosity and make you want to continue the QGIS learning journey. I’ve already signed up for another course!
