So last year I didn't do a year in review because I was sitting in the hospital with one serious thought back in January: I was probably a few days away from the year in review not mattering anymore. How do you sum up this year. Usually I pour through a pile of things...
So back last year I started something and have just finished one small part of it: https://training.northrivergeographic.com The Intro to QGIS class has a new home and that new home has a lot of room for a lot of different things. Something like 12 years ago (or more...
I've been trying to write my thoughts down more and have just been lost in life. The last 30 days have had me in Oak Ridge, Murfreesboro, and Reston Virginia. Yet another reason I mumble I really need to cut down on traveling. Which reminds me I need to discuss...
So welcome to my crossover post. Which I hardly talk about Geohipster. Geohipster is one of those "side things" that's been happening for over 10 years now. Back in the dearly days of twitter......or I should call it the "Golden Age of social media", Atanas Entchev...
I've been trying to write more as I get into this "New Life" thing since January. I'm not a developer. There was a time I did give it a go and it wasn't my thing. I can write small programs that scratch an itch but they aren't for mass consumption. I have found a...
I said last year I was going to cut back on conferences and forgot about that in the lead up to January. So far this year there's been three conferences I've attended. I've got another 2 plus one speaking engagement and then I'm done for a bit. Of course that leaves...
It made me sad. I'm working on a project involving 911 data and it's made me do quite a bit of thinking. The short story on this is it's not in Tennessee. I'm taking data in it's raw form and shoving it into that state's NG911 format. So I have about half of it...
Sometimes things happen at a slow burn. One thing I've been trying to do in what spare time I have is resurrect the QGIS-US group. It's starting. I've reached the point now where emails/virtual hangouts are about to start happening. So I made a google form and in...
It's weird to say "Time for the 7 month check-in" but there I stood at the doctors office waiting for my 7 month evaluation. Long story short - I've got some form of Heart Disease. I say some form because people have said a half dozen things around me and they all...
I hardly ever do Mergin Maps blog posts. I need to do more. So I've been mapping random things in Chattanooga for OSM - which puts me out with my Bad Elf GPS and Mergin Maps. I don't do nearly enough field work these days. It sort of scratches an itch. It's fun. I'm...
News of the weird...or possibly normal. . I hit two "almost a problem" problems with the longest running install of this system: I need to update it which means changing names on three of the layers. I expect much screaming when this happens. I already did a dry run...
I may have done something terrible or something good. To get some of you up to speed: I'm not a web programmer...or developer...... I have been woefully ignorant of web mapping I decided to learn some leaflet by mapping bike lanes. There's more discussion if you dig...
