Was listening to #DtMF & got to LO QUE LÉ PASO A HAWAii & thought of Dr. Mei-Singh's #NACIS2024 presentation (not recorded, but panel was). While the topic was centered on Hawaii, there was a small part where she connected Hawaiian & Puerto Rican resistance. Listen to the song & listen to the panel!
Up next on my list of my fav #NACIS2024 talks is the bun for basemaps metaphor that has stuck with me...
Basemaps Don't Have to Be Boring by @bdon.org of @protomaps.com
Continuing to post some of my favorite #NACIS2024 presentations
Dr. Annita Lucchesi gave us some tough love and real truth for both NACIS and cartographers engaging with indigenous communities and data.
Communicating terrain cartography is really tricky, and @missmaps.bsky.social does a fantastic job in this #NACIS2024 talk.
New to terrain? Steps are broken down in a clear way. Expert to terrain? Watch for ideas on breaking down the steps to help mentor others!

Reposting this counts as my next post about talks I enjoyed at #NACIS2024.
I wasn't able to make it to #NACIS2024 this year, but I am slowly watching the presentations and learning so much!
There were a lot of Esri staff at this year's @nacis.bsky.social conference, below is a thread of their talks and the cartography they have been working on:

On my desk today: Total Eclipse by @kennethfield.bsky.social It made it back to Champaign safely from #NACIS2024 in Tacoma ... but a month later still is a little bit curled from being rolled in my suitcase.
Happy GIS Day to all those who celebrate!
At work we've got a series of talks from colleagues, and it's an excuse to repeat the talk I gave at #GeoCart2024 & #NACIS2024.
You can feel part of the action too by watching the recording of my @nacis.bsky.social talk!

It's true, most of the talks from #NACIS2024 can now be found online, along with 100s of videos from years past!
The thing I Iove most about the #geo community is the willingness to share! And there is no better example than the offerings from @nacis.bsky.social!
Now on the blog: a recap of our presentations at the recent North American Cartographic Information Society #NACIS conference (including videos of each talk)! #NACIS2024

My talk from #NACIS2024 is now on Youtube: it features the most detailed dive yet into how Close works, plus a defense of walkability and a look into the future. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZyRQ...
I’ve been messing around with imitating hand-drawn or antique map styles with QGIS, and after presenting on the topic at #nacis2024 I’ve finally posted a thing with what I’ve learned and some styles to download: andywoodruff.com/posts/2024/q...

Proud advisor moment @ #NACIS2024! A Brown DEEPS senior, Quinn Cowing presented their work “Untangling Rhode island's
Forest Habitat; Interactive Mapping at the Confluence of Art and Cartography” - check these meticulously designed & embroidered layers of habitat!
Feeling 🤯 in this past #nacis2024 session on Adam Cox's Old Insurance Maps project digitizing Sanborn maps and it's integration into Richmond DSLs Mapping Inequality project. Can start identifying environmental hazards clustered in redlined nhoods.
Thanks to those who joined our Pro-to-Illustrator mapmaking talk today at #NACIS2024 I had a great time w/ co-presenter Julia Olson and the great audience too 🗺️ Here’s where you can download Maps for Adobe:

Geographic access is always complicated but pretty blown away by this accessibility tool by Nathaniel Henry. #nacis2024 close.city?x=-122.33&y=...
There's some great maps in the #nacis2024 map gallery but here's a blast from the past from the last Tacoma-based conference in 2019. Remember sharpiegate? How could you forget! 🤦 Here's the community map that evolved from that moment in history.
If you're at #nacis2024 and would like a copy of my shiny Total Eclipse map I have a few to give away. Find me. I'll ask you a map trivia question. Get it right, and get a map. Simple!
also for those of us who couldn't make it this year, Rob's #nacis2024 posts are super helpful and slightly fomo-inducing :-)
If you're at #nacis2024 be sure to follow @rsimmon.bsky.social. He is posting so many of the talk links and also provides many simple and straightforward tutorials on how to work with scary to me programing languages like GDAL! Thank you for your service Rob 🙏🏻

I should probably be posting my witty #nacis2024 quips here rather than spamming the Slack channel! Let's get this new social media the place to be for #cartographers 🗺️🌍
A review of the latest Atlas of Design - Volume 7 #MapoftheWeek Unfortunately I can't make it to #nacis2024 but if you're lucky enough to be there you should be able to pick up a copy.

#NACIS2024 time!
Hey Vicky! Sadly, I'm going to miss #NACIS2024 this year... already jealous of you :-)
Hi #gischat! I'm Vicky, a DC based cartographer/writer and VP-elect/Program co-chair for #NACIS2024 - see you in Tacoma?
Finished! Maps and magazine layout design for an upcoming #cartography conference demo I’ll be doing with my wonderful colleague Julia Olson. Next month in Tacoma WA.

A 3d model of maps in book
Wayyyyy too early into this project to be sharing, but why not :) I’m testing the maps in a magazine layout w/ Adobe Dimension 3D models. 2 of the 4 maps I’ll be demoing at the upcoming #cartography conference next month.

So I am working on my presentation for NACIS 2024 and I think I am wondering if my original topic isn't a part of a larger conversation around making geospatial science reproducible. I may need to find people to talk with me to think through this some more. #gischat #NACIS2024
