The world has lost a giant of conservation and a beacon of hope. Jane Goodall changed not only how we see chimpanzees, but how we see ourselves. Her legacy will inspire generations to come.

Scratching my head at this one… “Heirloom Cartography” makes no maps, just genealogy charts. Their registered web domain seems to back this up.

Unless they expand soon to include cartographic offerings, I’d say this is misleading…

Luckily, Sinclair has a helpful database of all their stations, so you can see if they're operating in your area and respond accordingly.

It still astounds me that many commentators and reporters refer to the Bay Area’s tech innovation corridor as “Silicone Valley”.

We’re doing something new this year! Look for small signage in the Map Gallery alongside each map that exemplifies excellence and is a finalist to possibly win in each map category. Winners announced on Friday! #EsriUC

‘Tis the season #EsriUC

And I see that your Schwartz is still as big as mine!

Ocean with David Attenborough - National Geographic Society The stunning documentary, Ocean with David Attenborough, shines a light on both the beauty of the sea and the ways in which humans are depleting its riches.

Who else is going to be watching tonight?

Fascinating!

Super excited for the debut. Can’t believe David is almost 99. It’s going to carry maybe his most powerful message yet. #ocean @deepseadawn.bsky.social

Where are the lunchtime #Esri map puzzlers? Getting started on a particularly beautiful challenge.

Oof. Yeah. My least favorite activity of the year by far.

I agree that a formal classification for the title of “astronaut” is long overdue. Amongst these qualifications should be a career dedicated to science and human progress. Anything else is merely “space tourism”.

Love this!

Engineered bacteria emit signals that can be spotted from a distance MIT engineers engineered bacteria to produce hyperspectral signals that can be detected as far as 90 meters away. Their work could lead to the development of bacterial sensors for agricultural and oth...

I see large applications for scientific and environmental monitoring, including remote sensing and general telemetry.

Oh, @pbsnews.org - tonight you showed a map with no legend on your evening news program. I know you can do better than this!

Very cool interactive map of the London Underground from Ben James. It would also he interesting done as the old “Harry Beck” schematic. www.londonunderground.live

So proud of the Corvallis community, my second home! #GoBeavs

YouTube video by Brian Murray Helicopters DON'T just fall from the sky - What is "Mast Bumping"?

After reviewing the sobering video footage and watching this explanation, “mast bumping” definitely seems like a plausible explanation for the Hudson River helo crash.

Threads (1984) After a young English couple are separated by a nuclear attack, they must fight for their lives in a frightening post-apocalyptic world.

One of the most sobering post-apocalyptic films I’ve ever watched was the early 1980’s cult classic, “Threads”. I’m hearing word that it’s going to be remade into a miniseries. The original is still available online. Food for thought in the current geopolitical climate. tubitv.com/movies/53144...

lol right?

My biggest problem with LinkedIn: there are only a handful of ways of saying “I’m pleased to announce…” without appearing desperate for attention.

At Esri we call that Spatial Optimization 🐾☺️❤️

Nice. Averaging 2-3 runs for extra stable results is a hot tip, too.
