Could a geospatial nervous system help us map every corner of Earth?
In short: Jack Dangermond explores how geographic information system (GIS) technology acts as a living atlas, gathering complex data to help us understand our changing planet and pursue a more sustainable future.
The video examines the power of geographic information system (GIS) technology, a tool used to map and analyze intricate datasets. By creating a 'geospatial nervous system,' this technology tracks information from every crack and corner of the globe. This living atlas allows us to monitor the Earth's evolution and provides the insights necessary to let nature guide our actions toward sustainability.
