I love this article. This is exactly why I signed up. To be a part of bringing this language to people who can bring this (making maps of all aspects of reality like never before) vision to fruition. "When it comes to maps—a technology that is 4,000 years old—two completely contradictory things are true: Nothing has changed. And everything has changed. What hasn’t changed is maps are a language. They can present volumes of data to instantly tell a story, when that very same data would be incomprehensible if you looked at it on spreadsheets. What has changed is the kinds of stories maps can tell, the data they can present, the questions they can ask and then answer."
Jack Dangermond discusses how modern maps are shaping our understanding and ability to solve some of the world’s most complex challenges. 🌎 https://lnkd.in/gTn5bTPG via Forbes #GIS #Cartography #LocationIntelligence
