The 12 days of XYMas

Dec 9, 2019 | QGIS, Small Business

Inspired by Nyall Dawson’s 24 days of QGIS (which you should check out on twitter) I’ve decided to do a 12 days of “Tools” or “GIS” or “GEO” or something – but 12 things I dabble in and enjoy and relate to my life in Geo and at least one or two of my life outside of geo. I’ve been on a bit off on the whole blogging thing as of late. I start a post and never finish it. I may finish it and then go “What’s the point” and it never gets published.

Anyway – till the next post……
