Is this the first college level qualification in #GIS in the UK? Well done @fifecollege.bsky.social and all the students for gaining their certificates yesterday and i look forward to seeing you grow in the geospatial community. Pic from LisaJackson as it is better than the one i took!

excellent demonstration of how to use AI and machine learning to identify things that need your attention such as faded road markings. simple and elegant, focus your attention on the things that need attention...... #GIS

The end of a long, but enjoyable week. Lots of great engagements from schools students at Dynamic Earth to College Students at @fifecollege.bsky.social - here is @kiaranmaps.bsky.social demoing some analysis of flood risk on a touch screen.

How to avoid a geopolitical incident in cartography with jethro lennox of HarperCollins. Another fascinating talk at #GeoCom25 that reminds me of another talk from years back from the person at Microsoft who had to make atlas’ in encarta acceptable internationally. Paper is harder than digital!

Addy Pope @gis4he.bsky.social · 27/02/2025

Absolutely fascinating presentation about historical aerial imagery from NCAP (national centre of aerial photography) not the crash testers! Image shows Cologne through #WW2 #GeoCom25

Some really nice visualisations of the future of #Scottish cities from #ramboll at #GeoCom25 helping citizens see what infrastructure is needed in their local area and critically, why!

kicking off the day at @edinburgh-uni.bsky.social from tom sharples of @scottishgov.bsky.social this map showing brownfield sites took him next to no time but got him the most praise last year. data was locked in spreadsheets with no geo enablement.

I’d say 35. We were teaching it in 2001 to undergrads in the UK through remote sensing glaciology and that would put them at 35+ which just makes me feel even older

Ski season is bad in Scotland this year but this skiwear sale is odd!

Universities can play and active role in their local community. Skills and knowledge can flow into businesses/local gov and partnerships can be built. Check out this great #digitaltwin example from the @bradfordcouncil.bsky.social and @uniofbradford.bsky.social resource.esriuk.com/esri-resourc...
