@googleearth Do you have a link for this post?

Google Earth introduces new tools for professionals: manage all your projects, import KML data sets directly, and explore clearer data visualization with abstract basemaps. Learn more: medium.com/google-earth/n…

Earth observation and geospatial techniques have improved the ability to measure nitrogen dioxide at ground level. #gis #geospatial bit.ly/3sOQdks

@nyalldawson An educational version of QGIS for schools?!

Here’s one hot volcano video for you all that are experiencing cold winter and Christmas snow ⛄️ #dji #iceland #hot #volcano

They're coming! Geospatial Activity Packs are rolling out on our website now for Resources members. Log in online and go to the new Resources tab. Exciting! #geographyteacher #geospatial

Colorful patterns are seen in Lençóis Maranhenses National Park, a 380,000-acre protected area in northeast Brazil. It contains miles of sand dunes, the valleys of which fill with freshwater lagoons during rainy season and are prevented from draining by impermeable rock beneath.

This treasure trove of Earth science data is available for public use, too! 🌐 In fact, YOU can even monitor Earth’s vital signs in real-time with our interactive data visualization, Eyes on the Earth: eyes.nasa.gov/apps/earth/#/ (7/8)

In Hobart I argued to 150 geography teachers that they are teaching a crucial subject. Geography is a systemic discipline. The big problems we face are al systemic in nature (climate change, housing affordability, even the skills shortage).

@simongerman600 It was a great talk Simon, thanks for making time to share your insights with us.

This looks like a fantastic resource to help promote careers in geography

It was great to present and MC the STEM panel at today's #gtaq22 conference on the Gold Coast. Another great conference team, well done to all involved!

Good to see @Esri taking the lead on this as most maps made in the world are either made on their software or Google's.

@BobLangGeog @gtaqld @GTANSWACT @SusanCaldis @BundabergNow Hi Bob, just saw this. I noticed during the game, it's a nice touch. Easy too as we only have four numbers!
