Suitably attired for #EsriDevTech2026 with mappy shoes and palm tree shirt. Find me if you want to talk maps.
Always great to catch up with my old Kingston Uni pal James O'Brien. It's 15yrs since we ran that particular GIS gig though. Time flies!

Of course. But I see many of the same people, and given an overlap in the congregation exists it would make sense to schedule events more optimally. This isn't a new phenomenon. It's just a continuing frustration for many.
Cartographic community continues its long tradition of conference cannibalism. Eurocarto 9-11 Sep (Brno). British Carto Conf 9 Sep (Edinburgh). 2027 Esri UC 12-16 July (San Diego). International Carto Conf is 17-23 July (Warsaw). Same people. Different countries. Ridiculous.
There’s an entire book with ~100 different ways of mapping that election by @kennethfield.bsky.social
