geospatial-skills

A collection of separately installable geospatial SKILL.md packages for AI coding agents.

Site: https://isaac.earth/geospatial-skills/

Install

The recommended path is skills.sh — a single-line install that works across most agents:

# install everything
npx skills add isaaccorley/geospatial-skills

# or install one skill at a time
npx skills add isaaccorley/geospatial-skills/<skill>   # e.g. gdal, geozarr, pmtiles-pipeline

Other paths:

# Claude Code plugin
/plugin install <skill>@geospatial-skills

# Or copy a skill directly into your shared skills folder
cp -R skills/<skill> ~/.agent/skills/<skill>

Skills

Provenance and licenses

Skills come from three sources; imported skills carry their upstream license file in their own directory and keep upstream content verbatim:

• authored here (Apache-2.0): gdal, geoparquet-validation, geozarr, tessera, geospatial-viewers, geospatial-frontend, parallel-geospatial, pmtiles-pipeline, zarr-multiscales, planet-bulk-download
• imported from portolan-sdi/portolan-skills (Apache-2.0, Portolan SDI): portolan-cli, portolan-bootstrap, reading-portolan, portolan-thumbnails, register-catalog, sourcecoop
• imported from opengeos/geoai-skills (MIT, Qiusheng Wu): search-stac, overture-data, detect-objects — cross-references were repointed from the upstream plugin namespace to this catalog's skills, and error paths now give inline pip install instructions
