We’re proud to announce that we're integrating our spatial analytics within @Microsoft Fabric. Soon, customers can generate insights from their own location data using ArcGIS tools and libraries in Fabric.

🌍🎉 @Esri has partnered with @databricks to bring spatial analytics functionality to the Lakehouse! This brings an efficient and scalable way to analyze geospatial data to guide informed decisions. Learn how you can leverage this powerful solution: esri.com/about/newsroom/anno…
A successful weekend... Finished the lighting on my @LEGO_Group bonsai tree. It turns on and off with my computer. Lego power to motivate all of my map work. Attn: @deepseadawn
Check out our recent article published in CaGIS @cartographyGIS focusing on cognitive and perceptual issues related to map projection research. Co-authored with my distinguished colleague Sarah Battersby @mapsOverlordtandfonline.com/doi/full/10.…
Maps aren't a perfect reflection of the real world, and the spatial data we use to make them can be very messy, indeed. @mapsOverlord shares 4 common sources of error in spatial #data to help you fix them...or at least make peace with them!

Next year we need to print packs of map projection valentines. Everyone needs these, right? Web Mercator I have a confession, you are the perfect projection. ❤️
Every other geonerd is sharing the Bonne projection today but here it is re-projected into Web Mercator for all you conformal folks who prefer north to always be up, meridians to be parallel and equally spaced, and angles to be locally correct. Happy #ValentinesDay
I've been using and learning about Figma this week...how did I not get into this earlier??? Guess there are up sides to having a lot of free time on my hands. All I want to do is make interactive prototypes all the time now.
I asked ChatGPT for an "Edgy tweet":
Tired of being overlooked and underestimated. Cartography is an art and a science, and it's time for the world to recognize it as such. #cartographerlife#mapmakingmatters
(I think it should have just said "periphery!") #mapProjectionsAreHard
I've been asking ChatGPT to draft tweets about maps this morning 😂 wondering if I should really embrace this and actually send them out. Maybe they'll make me sound super hip, edgy, and awesome. 🗺️🗺️ Definitely uses more emojis and hashtags than I usually do
Happy Wednesday it's Data Love time
Sarah Battersby (@mapsOverlord) is a map GENIUS, and if you're like me you don't know nearly as much about maps as you think!

The start to 2023 has been challenging for me, as many friends here could guess... It has been a rollercoaster of emotions, and the amazing #DataFam (and friends) have been so supportive. There is no way that I can thank you enough for the kind words you have shared. ❤ (1/x)
I'm also excited about digging into Geographic Data Science with Python (geographicdata.science/book/…), and I have lots more learning about PostgreSQL and PostGIS to keep me busy... all the fun super nerd spatial stuff you might expect 😊(6/x)
At some point I'll start looking for my next adventure, but for now I may go mostly dark. Though, feel free to reach out if you have questions or want to chat spatial ...I'll check for messages periodically, but have notifications off. 😊(7/7)
