Brian, you have a pedagogical and engaging way of conveying knowledge on GIS. Your passion for its inherent possibilities transfers to viewers. Well done!

Most of this was 'over my head' ... but ... I've been playing around in QGIS, just enough, that nothing you were talking about was 'foreign'. Thank you for putting this Video together.
Thank you for your feedback, I'm glad that you found the video useful, keep at it and soon enough you'll be a GIS expert! Be sure to subscribe to the channel and hit the notification icon to stay up to date on new videos thank you again!
Quality education, I am going to keep an eye out for your 2nd edition book coming out soon. Merci! QGIS downloaded and I started playing with it, I'm trying to learn Python and SQL related data science lately after encountering them a little bit in my geography courses. I want to learn more about shape files as they seem unique to GIS over the general data sciences.

What do you think of blender for GIS? Also, do you think someone with no experience in the industry can become a "rodman" (on the field data collector) without a full understanding of the data compiling and drafting side of the industry?
I would say contact a surveying company and ask them about entry level positions and look at job descriptions for ideas on what is needed in terms of skill sets. Example: www.ziprecruiter.com/Jobs/Survey-Rodman
That's the great thing about gis, many of us arrived to it from so many diverse perspectives and backgrounds. By the way check out this video on Channel the tie your interest with video games to GIS
Thank you for the kind feedback, yes the data sets are free to use as I got them all from public sources and there should be a readme file about that when you download them. Thanks again and be sure to subscribe and check out other videos on the channel!
Hello Brian ,it is wonderful video ! I am curious is there any possibility to to find out the land encroachment of a lake. We do have the GIS map of the said Lake taken in 2008 .So, considering the base year as 2008, is there any way we can integrate API to a software to find the deviation on the map so far to find the land encroachment and other changes from time to time since the base year. I will highly appreciate your suggestions and inputs on this ..
Thanks for your comment, if I'm understanding what you're trying to do, one thing you might try is taking a polygon of your lake from 2008 and then a polygon of your Lake from say 2020 and then do a clip or difference function on the two polygons to determine the changes between the two of them
Isn't there a site that lets you enter a land by name or address or zip code? I'm looking for the lines dividing where public can, or can't be. Like if I were walking along a road and someone randomly tells me I'm on their property but I am literally walking on the side of the road. How the hell do I know officially (legally)? I see several people I watch that use these things and they always say "Just grab the gis on it". Any time I ever try to look for any kind of GIS I never find anything that offers the information, rather just information talking about the information and all the great stuff it offers.
My initial response might be to look for data on tax Parcels if you're in the United States as that could tell you where things are in terms of legal boundaries, sometimes you can find websites that have public information on tax personal boundaries
How can I analyze the entire USA to find (amongst other 'ANDed' booleans) every house which sits on a hill? By 'sits on a hill' I mean: 'has at least 90 contiguous degrees azimuthal unobstructed negative 30 degrees slope in the terrain for at least 150 meters in elevation'. Basically I want to live on a hillside or a knoll. What (affordable to regular person) software will all this type of programming?
I need to to get digital data file for, let's say US rivers system and their streams and stuff, organized based on GPS coordinates. Will GIS software do it for me?
Yes, once you find the relevant data sets for what you're interested in, GIS software will allow you to display these data sets. In some cases software like arcgis Pro will help you to find digital data files like the ones that are interested in using internal search systems they have. Thank you for your comment
@@GIScienceRIT I am interested in getting a digital file from a visual map! Like I have the map available. I need to do geo-referencing and structure the geographical coordinate information of my area of interest together. Will ArcGIS do that for me? Is there a simpler way?
I think this is what you would want to do if you already have an image that you would then like to derived geographical information from it by digitizing geo referencing and so forth

I want to learn GIS in the field of web gis, and currently I take lessons on javascript django database. Is web gis required in the market and give me advice please
Hello, it is always good to know about web GIS topics like javascript and APIs like Google, leaftlet.js, Esri and others. However, it is also depends on the kind of job you want to get and how relevant web skills are. take a look at: www.gjc.org/cgi-bin/listjobs.pl and review specific job listings and the kinds of skills they are looking for, this can guide how you spend your time with training and the kinds of jobs you might pursue.
I honestly thought when starting to learn about GIS in university that it would be a chore, but you managed to make it somehow interesting :P.
Awesome thank you for the feedback I'm glad that you enjoyed the video. There's so much to the fascinating world of GIS, keep exploring!
I'm a dev learning gis and this video is a great step in that journey. 👏🏾
Thank you!
Thank you very much, this was my first intro to GIS. I learned something new.
Awesome! Great to hear, please subscribe to the channel keep you updated on new videos to keep on learning about gis!
Thanks for posting this overview on GIS. Looking forward to seeing more.
Thank you!
Brian, you have a pedagogical and engaging way of conveying knowledge on GIS. Your passion for its inherent possibilities transfers to viewers. Well done!
Thank you for the nice feedback I appreciate it!
Brian I have just started to listen to your video. I am an adjunct professor. You have conveyed information in a very good way.
Awesome, thank you!
Your video has given me a very good introduction of GIS. The video is very easy to understand and practice. Hope many more is to come
So nice of you

QGIS is surprisingly quick compared to any online arcgis program or alternatives I had learned for school. OSM maps have a lot to play with!
Awesome! Thank you for your feedback and I'm glad that you find the video useful for your education.
Thank you ! Just started my degree in GIS !
Awesome, welcome to the amazing world of GIS!
excellent

Great Video.
Who would have thought that after all this time playing sim city and civilization, I'd be an advanced novice in GIS.

why are there no audio? only got audio during introduction before 1.30
There is a known technical issue with this video that it's only available in one channel so perhaps to check your left and right tanning?

Try: gisfordisastermanagement.com/datasets/mumbai_datasets.zip
