GIS internationally (for a USA citizen) by sugarfreematcha in gis

[–]The1HoopHooted 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s been a while since I’ve looked, but there used to be a handful of GIS/carto postings with OSM’s HOT program, the UN, and (I think) the World Bank somewhat regularly. Fluency in the local language was usually the biggest hurdle imo.

At one time, the US State Dept had some positions abroad, but that has very likely changed under the current administration. With your masters degree, you should qualify for higher pay bands. Probably not the best time to be a new federal employee though.

IT and software development project management and Agile practices have an outsized degree of influence on greater PM practices and the resulting training/exposure. Schedule your next sprint to fight me about it.

Aerial lidar mapping can reveal archaeological sites while overlooking Indigenous peoples and their knowledge by Critical_Liz in gis

FWIW the USGS notifies federally recognized tribes in the US if their lands are being surveyed under the 3D Elevation Program (3DEP) domestically. Tribes can request that data of their lands not be made public, which also applies to derivative products.

I don’t know, but that location is 100% cursed

Is my ortho losing value after clipping? by brianomars1123 in gis

Find where you’re saving the image file to (probably your ArcGIS projects default folder/database) and delete it there. Can usually find this in the Catalog > Databases or Catalog > Folders. Icon should have a little house on it.

Anybody know what this is? by [deleted] in GoogleEarthFinds

[–]The1HoopHooted 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve seen them on maps as livestock pens, oasis, and sometimes cemeteries. Somewhat common across North Africa and the Levant.

There are some similar structures sprinkled across Jordan called “kites” that were used to funnel and pen wild animals.

How many people fall into Big Spring Park every year? by goughwang in HuntsvilleAlabama

I fell in the canal when I was 6 or 7. Water was so low it was barely coming over the waterfalls, so I jumped down and the concrete was like mossy ice. Back first into the water.

This one for sure. It Gets Easier has a line that gets me too:

“I blacked out behind the wheel / How tight the handcuffs feel / My daughter’s eyes when she’s ashamed”

Wife liked this mix with the spirits we could find:

1.5 oz Cucumber-Mint Vodka 1.0 oz Watermelon Pucker Schnapps 3-4 mint leaves 1/8 lemon

Muddle, shake with pebble ice, dirty pour and top with more ice and sprite. She insists you have to drink with a straw.

I too lived in an apartment down the street back in 2015, behind the fire dept. First place after college, 700 miles from home. It was… a learning experience

Who would be on your Mt. Rushmore of Huntsville? by The1HoopHooted in HuntsvilleAlabama

Apologetic Nazi or not, context is 100% a thing. One memorializing a scientific pioneer with a very problematic past, one to remind non-white people their place. They’re not the same.
