Nice and early start presenting some of the work we have been doing estimating and understanding the patters of population movement from and within Ukraine 🇺🇦 at the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office today. Keep you posted! 🚀

Working on geospatial software? Let me know so I can add you to the Geospatial Developers starter pack: go.bsky.app/cnR8bN #gischat #leafletjs #geojson #maplibre #openlayers

As Bluesky is growing 🥳, I have updated this starter pack with more people who post about cities, science, and policy.

A year on since our specialist workshop at UCSB where I had the opportunity to meet with a stellar groups of colleagues & reflect on current societal changes and what this means for the future of GIScience. We hope it is a source of inspiration for new research ideas 🚀 doi.org/10.1080/1365...

It's great to see the massive wave of people coming to 🦋.
Here's my first stab at a Computational Social Science starter pack:

Go check out similar lists to bootstrap your network:
bsky.app/starter-pack...

Wonder if these lists could be merged somehow..

Interested in finding out about the Regional Studies Association, our journals, publications and people?
We've made a starter pack of RSA-related profiles which we'll keep updating.
