Modern Geospatial

Modern geospatial – not the bleeding edge of geospatial but modern geospatial – what is it?

Well my guest Will Cadell, the CEO of SparkGeo describes modern geospatial as the intersection of the cloud, smart space, open source data/standards, AI and smart devices – that’s modern geospatial 

And as you will hear during the discussion it’s important to understand the difference between modernisation and innovation when we think about moving people from where they are now to where they want to be with regards to their geospatial capabilities. 

You might be wondering – what does any of this have to do with me? I just want to make better things, I just want to help people use all this awesome geospatial stuff …

but you don’t get to do that without first understanding what “better” looks like for them – what is their version of awesome geo stuff … and that is why you should listen to this episode!
