Since the beginning of civilization, humans have used images as a means to tell stories. We have used images to educate, entertain or to build a just and moral society. Our ancient ancestors would use images to remember stories and archive information for future generations. Similar to our ancient ancestors, we use images today to convey meaning, understand complex relationships and improve communication.
The use of mapping and geospatial technology is at the heart of story telling and improved communications. As the challenges of the public sector continue to grow in complexity, efficient and effective communication tools are essential. Today, government is more interconnected than ever before, and the complexity has led to increased integration between state, local and federal officials. At all levels of government, agencies are looking for solutions to find value and improve public sector decision-making through data. http://www.govloop.com/profiles/blogs/govloop-guide-the-mapping-revolution-incorporating-geographic-inf

An introduction to GIS strategic planning and the NSDI, an overview of the current state of GIS Coordination in Delaware and some questions to consider.
What's the status of the NSDI?
Cowen's address will provide his perspective on the current status of the National Spatial Data Infrastructure (NSDI). He will draw from his extensive experience with the National Research Council’s Mapping Science Committee, chairing the NRC study National Land Parcel Data: A Vision for the Future, a recent term as chair of the National Geospatial Advisory Committee, and his service as vice chairman of the Coalition of Geospatial Organizations (COGO) Report Card Committee on the NSDI. Through these activities he has observed and analyzed the Federal geospatial landscape for the thirty years since president Clinton issued Executive Order 12906, Coordinating Geographic Data Acquisition and Access: The National Spatial Data Infrastructure in 1994. He will comment on the changing role of various stakeholders in the collection, maintenance and sharing of geospatial data.
If you took a Geography course over 20 years ago, you might recall the subject involving little more than memorizing the locations of continents, countries, cities, as well as climate and cultural facts. In that time, many universities have expanded their geography programs by entering the world of Geographic Information Systems, or GIS for short. In the beginning GIS was an obscure field of specialized hardware, software, and cryptic keyboard commands that allowed a skilled professional to query data to get answers to geographic-based inquiries. Queries, such as the quantity of forested acres within an area, were the beginning of the geographicbased analysis revolution that has since unfolded. But today’s leading geography programs are teaching students more than just the where, what, who, and why of our world, but also bring to the table an interdisciplinary approach to solving today’s local, regional, national, and global problems. Many of these programs are not limited to just universities, now involving the K-12 space, tapping into young people’s minds to unleash innovative ideas in what is now an interdisciplinary field. To maintain a competitive advantage in today’s world, leading countries, companies, and research organizations are embracing these new capabilities and the talent that is available in the marketplace.

Project Foundations of Geographic Information Systems (Proposal)
Research Problem to be Solved
Natural Resource Management-This Research Proposal focuses on how the Geographic Information Systems software facilitates or helps in the management of Natural Resources. (GIS on the Natural Resource management). It was found that the population, especially those of the major cities around the world, keeps on growing day by day; as a result, most cities are experiencing expansion pressure of accommodating the massive influx. This Proposal, therefore, looks at how the GIS software can be utilized in the identification as well as the assessment of spatial patterns of the existing city as well as identification of the appropriate areas that can be used for urban expansion.
Data
The primary data to be used for this project will be the population data. This data is readily available and is found in various census archives such as the U.S. census archives. This data, therefore, may be entered as different layers onto the satellite images recorded for the city under consideration. Also, the research will require high-resolution satellite data, which will be for the coverage maps of the selected region; however, this data is quite accessible mostly in digital format, because the NASA, as well as other prominent satellite imaging organizations, may be able to provide this data. Various GIS equipment may also be required in this case; some of them might include the DEM input maps of the land-use in the selected region. The satellite image maps may offer the instrument. Besides, the GIS software will also incorporate the habitat data. After preliminary research into the identification and needs of such species for their ideal habitat (Tomaszewski, 2014).

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

GIS, Geospatial Data and You
1. Mike Mahaffie Data Coordinator State of Delaware Office of State planning coordination GIS, Geospatial Data and You(or, Why Google Maps Works)
2.
3.
4.
5.
6. What Does Delaware Look Like? Delaware’s boundary is marked by 179 monuments. Some are lovely carvedstones Some are not They were set starting incolonial times by surveyors including Mason & Dixon. They mark all but one of the lines that make up our state boundary
7. What Does Delaware Look Like? The Transpeninsular Line The Tangent Line The Arc Line The North Line The Top of the Wedge Line The 12-mile Circle The 1934 Mean Low Water Line The Delaware Bay Line
8. Here’s Something That Worries Me The Transpeninsular Line Starts Here What Happens Here!?!
9. Why is He Like This? I have three jobs Technical support for the Office of State Planning Coordination Liaison between Delaware and the Census Bureau State GIS Coordinator The first two are tough enough But getting all the minutiae of digital mapping straight can make you….
10. By the Way… “GIS” stands for Geographic Information System The tools and dataneeded to combinedatabase info withgeographic location What, added towhere, equals usableknowledge “Geospatial Data”
11. How Do We Use GIS? State land-use policy development State Strategies for Policies and Spending Development Reviews Transportation planning and management Environmental policies and management Sea-level rise studies Habitat studies Plume modeling for spills and other bad things Health planning and epidemiologic studies 911 dispatch and emergency event management
20. Where Does This Data Come From? Basic mapping used to comefrom USGS in the form of Topographic Maps Starting in the 1980s, theCensus Bureau developed TIGER The "Topologically IntegratedGeographic Encoding andReferencing" system Helped lead to GIS
21. But Those Are National in Scale Topographic Maps are at 1:24000 To map the wholeof the US, you needto map at very small scales Say, 1:3000000 What does that mean for a smallstate? It’s not good…
22.
23.
24. In Delaware, We Map at Large Scales Generally, wemap at 1:2400
25. In Delaware, We Map at Large Scales Generally, wemap at 1:2400 But we often golarger (1:1000)
26. Local Data Are Better Two things we’ve learned: The closer you are to something, the more clearly you map it Those who are in charge of a thing should maintain the data about that thing Therefore, the best geospatial data come from local and county sources In our case, generally from the state (we’re special) Eg: Most roads in Delaware are maintained by the state
27. But Data Must be Organized & Aggregated The Delaware GeographicData Committee formed in 1998 To coordinate the use and sharing of GIS data and tools in Delaware A collegial organization that existed because it said it did (minor reference in state code) Partnerships, relationships and friendships have been key Ultimately about 500 members
28. Goals of GIS Coordination Ensure that geospatial data are maintained and published in such a manner that they are readily available to all appropriate data users to support state and local government functions; Promote the use and sharing of geospatial data and of geographic information system software and tools by state agencies and local governments; Establish standards for the appropriate publication of geospatial data and metadata; and Provide for a coordinated community of geospatial data providers and geospatial data users in Delaware. 29 Del. Code, § 9141

Code, § 9141
30. DGDC Has Been a Success Organized and published a series of data sets that make-up a digital base map of Delaware: Aerial photography Boundaries Parcels Elevation Geographic Names Land Use/Land Cover Transportation Water Features
31. DGDC Has Been a Success Created one of the first online GIS data portals – The Delaware DataMIL Presented a digital topographic map of Delaware Always up to date Always available on-line
32.
33. DGDC is Becoming More Formal Updated legislation in 2007 to create an Executive Council of the DGDC Now re-organizing to establish high-level GIS data policy Council includes cabinet-level leaders, counties, municipal governments and others
34. But What about Everyone Else? There has been a long discussion about defining a base map for the whole US We call it the National Spatial Data Infrastructure – The NSDI Who is in charge of this? Parts come from different states and from different federal agencies Many varied partnerships There is a Federal Geographic Data Committee And a National Geospatial Advisory Committee Too many chiefs?
35. And The States are Organized State GIS Coordinators from almost all states have joined together as the National States Geographic Information Council (NSGIC) To make sure all the states are organized And partnering withthe federalgovernment And the private sector
38. Where Does Google Get Its Data? Background orthophotos for Delaware on Google Maps (and Earth) are from Delaware’s 2007 ortho project They are aggregating publicly available data into their own version of the NSDI This isn’t necessarily a bad thing.. They are getting it done But who is legally responsible?
39. For Example The Judy V is a Charter Boat sailing out of The Indian River Inlet – off of Inlet Road, south of Dewey Beach
40. Crowd-Sourced Data Increasingly, data is being created by regular folks As hobbyists As part of data projects As a by-product of social media activity
41.
42.
43.
44. Who Will Build The NSDI? NGAC Chair Anne Hale Miglarese (Paraphrased): Unless there is significant investment in the next few years, the private sector will own the National Spatial Data Infrastructure. TechCrunch writer Erick Schonfeld: These efforts at creating an underlying database of places are duplicative… It is time for an open database of places which all companies and developers can both contribute to and borrow from. But in order for such a database to be useful, the biggest and fastest-growing Geo companies need to contribute to it.
45. Where Do We Go From Here? Cities and counties are now creating and maintaining very accurate GIS data States are aggregating and organizing that data Almost everyone makes GIS data freely available The federal government intends to organize a National Map The private sector is already doing it, but in separate silos The open-data community is also involved
46. What Does That Mean for You? Be aware of the many conflicting interests at play Don’t just trust the map data on the screen If you’ve a mind? Join in and help make this data even better Demand coordination of your local, state and political leaders Have fun
