"Symmetry is what this kind of mapping aims for: not mapping in a way such that the map is symmetrical to the world, but in a way that the map is symmetrical to what humans know about the world." #gischat #eochat #AugmentedReality #geodata https://t.co/zDGjCW6pkK

Something nice to realize about Europe, Japan, maybe a few more places is that train travel is very practical This makes travel for family visits or leisure or business much easier with young kids. It also facilitates tourism. More trains, everywhere please!

Sad news - Meta is cutting their budget that includes the work I do on Rapid, so I’m looking for a new job. If you’re looking to hire someone remote/NYC with solid frontend skills, particularly maps, dataviz, WebGL (but I’m open to anything interesting), let’s talk! DMs open, or

For good reasons, we tend not to think of our planet as impactor-pockmarked like the Moon or Mercury, etc. And yet, somewhat, it is. Here are the largest impact craters on Earth. The big green one in Mexico is what did for the dinosaurs, as you may know.

I think this is something related to Esri, which has a big desktop (Windows) GIS foothold. Maps on mobile are not GIS, but mobile GIS is not Esri dominant (maybe nobody dominant). Future computing devices, whatever they are, could also present novel opportunity for new entry.

I literally helped create Android to prevent Microsoft from controlling the phone the way they did the PC - stifling innovation. So it's always funny for me to hear Gates whine about losing mobile to Android 🤣 Retweet if you think I should share our original pitch deck 1/2

27º BCS y sus 9 complejos 🎥 #cinemapa Quizá son pocos, pero recuerden que también es poca la población del estado. De hecho, es el 6º en mayor penetración de cine en 🇲🇽 Faltan más en el norte del estado. Voy en orden desde el estado con menos cines (ZAC) al que más tiene.

My latest post on Substack thinks about the race to keep a map database synchronized with the real world, and compromises like time lags, different details, and whether anything not mapped really exists at all. #gischat #geospatial #openstreetmap https://t.co/HvlwLOgmam
