Last week we held another bootcamp on Spatial Data Science. We had three packed days learning about the concepts, tools and workflow associated with spatial databases, analysis and visualizations.

The annual AAG conference is rolling into town next week, and several of us will be there.

We live in a world where the importance of spatial data is ever increasing.
