Mercer County Heat Islands! Map by me #GIS #gischat #geospatial #gisforgood

Wrecked. I probably spent like 100 hours writing over the past few weeks at least. Doesn't even count the time doing analytics. I'm not even sure if I have the spoons to edit this. But still, final paper done, figures added, and feeling accomplished if not exhausted. ✌️ #gradschool #gradlife

Was going to spend this afternoon brushing up on some code and inserting some map figures into a report but instead I am designated pillow after being gone for a week #dogsofbluesky #pekingese #grumble

Back from the Esri conference! More on that soon. I slept for 24 hours straight once getting home, wowie! Hopefully I'll be a person again tomorrow 🤞🐕‍🦺 #spoonie #spoon #spoonlife #esriuc2025 #disability #esriuc

Thank you to everyone who attending my NJ State Food Insecurity Index talk!!! Looking forward to collaboration and seeing what your organization does with our framework! Special thanks to my dear friends and colleagues who attending the talk; you were such a boost and I am so grateful #esriuc2025

So #EsriUC2025 has been incredible so far! Reminder my talk is today at 2:30 pm at the Marriot! #foodinsecurity #gisforgood #foodequity #gischat #esriuc

Shout out to one of the most incredible GIS experts in the field @marcemiraval.bsky.social so glad to have you as a mentor and a friend #esriuc

First day of #esriuc comes to a close! Need to figure out what to do with my evening other than map algebra hmmm #gischat #geospatial #esri

After a delay we're ready to fly! #esriuc

Flight delayed ;_; anyone want to play cartographers on board game arena while I wait?

We're on the way! #EsriUC

I'll be presenting the NJ Food Insecurity Index I developed during “Analyzing Food Insecurity & Pediatric Health Through GIS Mapping” at #EsriUC! Join me July 17, 2:30–3:30 PM PDT, Pacific Ballroom Salon 23. Let’s talk GIS, public health & equity. DM if you’ll be in San Diego! #GIS #GISChat #PSU

here's tips for making a dog safe quesadilla: Plain tortillas are usually fine but check the ingredients Use low salt cheese, mozzarella and cottage cheese is usually okay in limited quantities Use unseasoned cooked meat with the fat drained Not for dogs w/ lipid/pancreas issues #dogsofbluesky

Back story: last October I adopted a very elderly very special needs dog. He's getting blood work for kidney function tomorrow and he NEEDS to eat before 18 hour fast but was refusing all day to have dry or wet food. He perked up when I had a burrito tonight: #pekingese #rescuedog

Include disabled people in resistance efforts. We are skilled at fighting systems of oppression. We fight against ableism & eugenics every day. We’re masters at contingency and emergency planning because we have to be to survive. Wear masks, make meetings accessible & inclusive.

Wait have we not established #MapPromptMonday here??? I'd prefer to not be reliant posting on that other place. Anyone else interested in booting up Devin Lea's awesome initiative here? #gischat #geospatial

It really is this simple. #TransRightsAreHumanRights

Anyone else? 😅 #python #rstudio #coding #gischat #data

Can you just... Apply to academic journals? Like if I did a critical lit review on techniques in a case study with cited recommendations for future applicability and methodology .... What is my next step? #gischat #gradschool #gradlife #academia

Happy #MappyMonday #GISchat Here's something I've been working on #geospatial #geoda

Just got back from an amazing time! I finally got to meet my cohort and faculty in person and it was everything I hoped for. We nerded out about spatial science, research, etc late into the night. Presenting at the symposium -cool, but tbh? The highlight was feeling like I found my people #GISchat

I just non ironically said "I do art to support my science habit" during my talk at an academic conference oops.

Did you know aerial photography was once done by pigeons? No, seriously. In the early 1900s, Julius Neubronner strapped tiny cameras to trained homing pigeons and let them capture photos midflight. I’ve been diving into these images with a cartographer’s eye and they’re weirdly beautiful. #gischat

From my PhD advisor @kenmiller.bsky.social at Columbia. These are the grants that funded my PhD.

I think between the two classes I have this semester, including citations, I will have written close to 150 pages by the time I submit my final papers. I haven't done academic writing outside of grant reports in like a decade! Wild! My wrists hurt haha. #gradschool

So what is the #gischat community here? Where can I find everyone? #gis #cartography #geospatial

Interestingly, there has been a max Exodus from other social media to this application. Friends and loved ones from more personal media, colleague and coworkers from others, and of course #gischat I don't feel like making multiple profiles here, so everyone will see my map and board game ramblings

Just cracked open #AGentleRain yesterday and got an amazing score try 5. 4 solo games and one co-op. Glad I finally got my hands on this classic. #boardgames #sologaming

Time to jam at #PAXUnplugged

Going to be at Pax Unplugged! @zeruagames.bsky.social I know you'll be there and hoping to finally meet you in person! Anyone else cool I should have on my radar?

Exciting news #gischat! I'll be presenting at the #Esri User Conference panel 'How You Communicate Matters -Use Maps' on the Mercer County Food Insecurity Index. Learn how we identified and visualized food insecurity using analytics and story maps. Join me for insights and solutions! Link👇

I forgot how beautiful PARKS is

*runs a summarize within of 100s of thousands of points* "Let's see if there's a visual pattern using dot density!" .... Oh. Oh no. #gischat #geospatial

I've noticed my communication with randoms has improved dramatically since I've started referring to my job as "cartographer" rather than "GIS analyst" People acknowledge happily and continue the conversation rather than seeming stuck and distrustful. I wonder why? #gischat #gis #geospatial

I accidentally hit to vary symbology size by random and now the city is covered in lava #GISchat #geospatial

I made a bluesky feed for posting about remote sensing/GIS. To post to it, just use #GISchat https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:35ycejprfrigkum4qtmumkxj/feed/aaancnoqjhyz2 (apologies to my neuroscience followers who don't know/care about this...)

29 publication quality maps rendered in ~3 days. I'm going to pass out now and dream about projection settings. #gischat what was a time you had a #geospatial project where you had to move metaphorical mountains and found success?

Hey geospatial and gischat peeps: Why does arconline have a "stay logged in" option when if you even open an additional browser tab you need to log in again while your map viewer laughs at you from one tab left? 🤔

Who wants to collaborate to make a geospatial / gischat custom feed for on here? I read up the how to but lack a lot of the background to make it happen.

Throwback to this #topographic #3dprinting project I did of a special place to me, hand painted and rendered from topo data to STL. #gischat #geospatial #topography #maps #gis

Here from #gischat ready to get mappy and support the community here 🌎🗺️🧭
