  • Interesting interview as far as I got but the poor audio quality for the interviewee made it too uncomfortable to listen right through.

  • Yes!! The Geomob podcast is long overdue

    I’ve been to a number of Geomob events and love attending them to get an inside scoop on what is happening in the world of Geo/Location and general mapping fun.

    I’m really pleased that we now have the podcast edition to look forward to (especially helpful in times of lockdown!).

    Ed is a great host and there’s some very knowledgeable speakers on the show. I’d recommend listening to the John Craig interview on location based advertising.

  • What's not to like if you are a geek and into Geo?

    Disclaimer: I'm one of the co-hosts of the podcast.

    Ed and I are old friends who've worked in Geo for a long time. Ed runs the Geomob series of events in London, Munich, Barcelona and Lisbon. I've mentored and invested in Geo start-ups for over decade

    In this podcast we chat about trends and current topics in Geo, we share our experiences in our current projects and businesses and we invite friends and past speakers from Geomob to join us

Andrew Nisbet: gpxz.io
Q: What exactly is GPXZ and what do you do?
GPXZ is an API for global terrain elevation data. It aggregates a 30-terabyte-plus dataset from many sources, performs quality control, and serves terrain elevation through point queries, bounding box requests for GeoTIFFs, and map tiles for use in tools like QGIS or MapLibre.
Ian Muehlenhaus: A Disputation on Mapping with AI
Q: Should cartography be restricted to experts or opened up to broader participation?
Ian argues against restricting cartography to experts, emphasizing that while expertise has value, broadened access with education and ethical guidelines will lead to better maps and more informed use of AI tools.
Dennis Luxen: OSRM
Q: How do data quality and growth affect OSRM's approach?
OSRM prefers fixing data upstream and being prudent about fixes in code, since data fixes can have long-term maintainability implications; data growth requires ongoing engineering to digest more data efficiently.
Dennis Luxen: OSRM
Q: Is OSRM open source and is there a hosted option?
Yes, OSRM is open source and can be run locally; there is also a hosted public service run by the OpenStreetMap community and commercial providers offer access to their backends.
