Alen Mangafić

I work at the Geodetic Institute of Slovenia in Ljubljana, contributing to various projects as a Data Scientist, Remote Sensing Analyst, GIS Coordinator, and Specialist. My work primarily revolves around the analysis of multispectral, hyperspectral, and SAR imagery, as well as LiDAR point clouds - but I enjoy tackling data problems of all kinds. I rely heavily on Python, GRASS, GDAL, PDAL, QGIS and PostgreSQL for data torturing and distribution. I love Linux. I currently serve as the secretary of the Slovenian OSGeo Local Chapter.

State of GRASS
Luca Delucchi, Veronica Andreo, Markus Neteler, Alen Mangafić

GRASS is an open source geoprocessing engine for efficient spatio-temporal data management, analysis, and modeling. The software comes with C / Python / R API, command line and graphical user interfaces.

In this talk we will give a comprehensive overview of the latest GRASS developments and upcoming new features.

A Scalable Open-Source System for Impervious Land Mapping Using GRASS and the Python Ecosystem
Alen Mangafić, Tomaž Žagar

This paper introduces a scalable open-source system using GRASS, TorchGeo, Python libraries, and HDF5 to map impervious surfaces from orthophotos and Sentinel-2 imagery. Outputs are vectorized, compared with agricultural and forested lands, and analyzed for environmental impacts like soil sealing to support sustainable land management and restoration.

i.hyper: processing hyperspectral imagery in GRASS
Alen Mangafić, Tomaž Žagar

We present i.hyper, a multimodular toolset for processing hyperspectral satellite imagery in GRASS. It supports the import of PRISMA, EnMAP and Tanager products through a dedicated import module and provides preprocessing, visualization and export. The i.hyper addon is available in the official GRASS Addons repository.
