The GISt of It: Discoveries from a Daily Social Mapping Challenge

This presentation will walk through some of the practical (and not so practical) takeaways I had from participating in the 2020 #30DayMapChallenge. Join me as I share my cartographic creations and the approaches, difficulties, and skills that went into developing them. In addition to my mapping workflows, and perhaps more valuable, I will share what I discovered by engaging with the spatial community throughout the event. Expect some ArcGIS Pro tips and tricks, some controversy, and, of course, some mappy memes.

This presentation was made at the 2021 annual meeting of the North American Cartographic Information Society (NACIS). For more information on NACIS, check out http://NACIS.org.
