@kristinHenry Cool! We are not so far removed from each other then! I think #AAG, #NACIS or #StateOfTheMap could be good ones although definitely focused on geography. What conferences are you planning on checking out? Anything with maps?
Data Art installations are awesome! There is one at our campus, which shows variations in air quality in a cool way. And another one that uses a Kinect and a sandpit to create a dynamic digital elevation model.
Here’s a #petpeeve Those #commercials with #tomselleck hawking those damn #reverse #mortgages. They are NOT “loans like any other.” With a regular mortgage, you pay every month, the balance goes down, and so does the #interest accrual. If you don’t pay down your reverse mortgage (which many, if not most borrowers do not), the interest just keeps running. The balance gets so high there is no alternative but to sell the house in the end to repay it. #personalfinance #beware #aag

Not sure what to think about a number of 2024 #conferences scheduled for #Hawa'ii, esp. for professional assns such as the #AAG and #4S that are attuned to the issues of #climate change and #coloniality.
What about #ghg emissions of traveling? Or the issue of #overtourism and the contribution of #academic #tourism to increasing local #housing #food and #transportation costs?
Is there something I'm not seeing here that actually serves the interests of #Native Hawai'ians?
Here to learn.

Great overview of #ethics in #geospatial from #AAG, including how to add ethics into your GIS classes: apps on your phone using your location & satellite imagery https://www.aag.org/locational-information-quick-start-guide/ & related white paper: https://www.aag.org/program/locational-information-and-the-public-interest/ #gischat
