Building a Community of Geospatial Storytellers
Manage episode 521529737 series 2502116
Karl returns to the Mapscaping podcast to discuss his latest venture, Tyche Insights - a platform aimed at building a global community of geospatial storytellers working with open data.
In this conversation, we explore the evolution from his previous company, Building Footprint USA (acquired by Lightbox), to this new mission of democratizing public data storytelling.
Karl walks us through the challenges and opportunities of open data, the importance of unbiased storytelling, and how geospatial professionals can apply their skills to analyze and share insights about their own communities. Karl shares his vision for creating something akin to Wikipedia, but for civic data stories - complete with style guides, editorial processes, and community collaboration.
