Hey #GIS #GISChat people, @gvwilson from Toronto wants to commission some GIS data manipulation work, any takers?

Looking for someone (very) familiar with the TopoJSON data format to do some (paid) extraction and reformatting work. Feels like one of those "straightforward if you know what you're doing, hellride if you don't" kinds of jobs.Mastodon

This Christmas, I've finally bitten the bullet and done some serious contributing to @openstreetmap (and also joined the OSM Foundation while I was at it). Honestly, I think it's one of the great wonders of the #OpenSource internet, so I wrote a blog post about why I'm contributing (and you should too)

The State Department will use the Turkish government’s preferred spelling, #Türkiye, instead of #Turkey, a spokesman said on Thursday. The decision was made in response to a request from the Turkish Embassy.

The department will use the Turkish-language spelling in “most formal, diplomatic, and bilateral contexts” after a request from the country’s embassy, a spokesman said.Christine Chung (The New York Times)
#introduction time 👋
- I'm a writer, programmer and researcher based in Melbourne.
- My day job involves a lot(!) of #dataviz and my main tools of the trade are #d3js, #python, #R and #GIS software. But I also play around with p5.js and SQL on occasion.
- Outside of that, I'm looking to learn more about digital librarianship and curatorship, digital humanities, early internet and the #indieweb, live art coding, generative art and cool web design.
- I was also a #music journalist for a few years and I'm a classically trained singer, so I'm always keen to hear new recs
✌️
