Background Attended: Collaboration Across Communities: GIScience 2.0 and BeyondCollaboration Across Communities: GIScience 2.0 and Beyond – My Note: Invited to attend one day as a journalist (I selected May 22 – Data Communities) Learned about: Storytelling with Maps: Workflows and Best Practices, WorldMap, New Data.gov Catalog, GIS BOK, Are there fundamental principles in Geographic Information Science?, Google Earth to Shape Files, ESRI Maps for Office, ARCGIS Online, Make a Map Tour Story Map, Storytelling with Maps: Workflows and Best PracticesStorytelling with Maps: Workflows and Best PracticesWorldMapNew Data.gov CatalogGIS BOKAre there fundamental principles in Geographic Information Science?Google Earth to Shape FilesESRI Maps for OfficeARCGIS OnlineMake a Map Tour Story MapStorytelling with Maps: Workflows and Best Practices – My Note: All of this gives me something for a data science product and story. 2
Purpose Suggested: A GIS Data Science team do a pilot for the Federal Big Data Senior Steering WG and help them with Work Force Development (train university students to be data scientists with big GIS data)Federal Big Data Senior Steering WG – My Note: I suggested that to a GIS Ph.D. Candidate at the Conference and he thanked me for the suggestion! Suggested: Making key publications compliant with the Digital Government StrategyDigital Government Strategy – Are there fundamental principles in Geographic Information Science? (Still being sold, but is it copyrighted?) My Note: Make notes on the Afterword by Michael Goodchild – GIS&T Body of Knowledge 1.0 (Free of charge and available as a PDF) My Note: I did this.
