<p><strong><a href="http://highearthorbit.com/fowa-london-beyond-googlemaps/">FOWA London - Beyond GoogleMaps</a></strong></p> Andrew Turner’s talk at FOWA was the most information dense presentation I’ve ever seen, and discussed a huge number of cool geo projects that I’d never previously heard of. Andrew links to the full slides and video, well worth a watch. <p>Tags: <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/andrew-turner">andrew-turner</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/fowa2008">fowa2008</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/geospatial">geospatial</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/google-maps">google-maps</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/maps">maps</a></p>
