New dawn for “geoservices”

Friday, March 22, 2013

For want of a better name (new cartography, neogeography, geoservices or maybe geomatics!!), Science has a nice article on the emergent importance of geo in the global economy and the subsequent requirement for suitably qualified employees, noting a ~35% predicted growth in workers in the US by 2020. That’s pretty big! Worth also reading the linked Oxera report for Google on Geoservices.

Bright future ahead people!
