I spent a decade in the GIS space, ending back around the final days of ArcGIS 9.x, or very early days of 10.x. I also remember various alternative and early open source efforts of the time. Then, about a year ago, after several years away

Perhaps wanting control over the lives and property of others is the real mental illness, as it results in quite unreliable things happening in the world and throughout history.

I accept the point you're trying to make, but we'd be remiss to think it were the only (or even dominant) factor in the overall equation.

The world-average ecological footprint in 2016 was 2.75 global hectares per person, a deficit of 1.1 hectares per person, or 40%. Unsustainability isn't some vague future concept or possibility. It's already here. The ecological

Japan imports a great deal of it's energy and food supplies. If reliant solely upon it's own ecological means, the human population it could support would be far less. Does that make Japan a proportional hoarder of the global ecol

In my experience, most land planning is done (or at least, starts) with a pencil on paper, even today. Technicians then take over the work of making it a detailed digital reality. The computer is wonderful in so many ways, but it does not y
