The Concept Of Indigenous GIS
--
Reading a paper (alturl.com/8wte5), they used the specific term ‘Indigenous GIS’ – and I found this intriguing!
As I read it, spatial data collection and analysis was done with a focus on how a tribe or social group might ‘see’ the data, including spatiotemporal....
I look forward to finding out more about what others are working on! – so PLEASE feel free to share any examples that you might have…

'Some (TopoBathy) Floodplain Images I Made A Few Years Ago, On The Mississippi R.
--
These are some (topobathy) floodplain images I made a few years ago for a specific usecase – and ‘stumbled’ across them again today, lookin’ for something else…
Every time I look at such things, the (engineering) geologist, geomorphologist, (pseudo) hydrologist, spatial data scientist in me is made happy in being reminded what access we have to (often open) spatial data and the sheer volume of it, and the use cases for which it can be leveraged.
We are lucky professionals…

H/T Doug Newcomb
This tutorial was created for a day-long introductory GIS workshop and for self-directed learners, using the free and open source QGIS desktop software. Download QGIS and install it for Windows, Mac, or Linux. It's recommended that you install the same version of QGIS that's being used in the tutorial, which is written for the stable long term release…”

[please share amongst your colleagues, children, friends, etc]
“A geographic information system (GIS) can create, manage, analyze, and map many types of data. With GIS and other mapping technologies, you can create a map of an area and layer open data over it spatially to reveal new, enriching insights. Your challenge is to create a map that incorporates open science data to explore how an issue in your community is shaped by the surrounding physical geography...”

[A general focus but very interesting and informative]
“James Morrison, head pilot and UAS ("Unmanned Aircraft System") lead at Ordnance Survey, discusses the use of drones in mapping and surveying. He shares examples of how drones were used to quickly assess landslips and update mapping in the Isle of Wight, as well as capture data for residential housing developments. James explains the different types of drones used by Ordnance Survey and their capabilities, including capturing imagery with centimeter-level accuracy…”

photo - OS used a fixed-wing drone to fly over the coal pile on an automated flight route. A series of images were taken with the drone at precise locations across the coal which were then fed into software that ‘stitched’ them into a 3D ‘digital twin’ of the coal pile, using a process called photogrammetry.
