What if we could better understand the world's biggest challenges simply by looking at a map? Jack Dangermond, a pioneer in geographic information system (GIS) technology that powers the digital maps people around the world use every day, speaks with TED technology curator Simone Ross about how his team is building a geospatial nervous system: a global, interconnected GIS network that reveals patterns, visualizes trends -- and could transform the way we make decisions about nearly everything.
The TED Talks channel features the best talks and performances from the TED Conference, where the world's leading thinkers and doers give the talk of their lives in 18 minutes (or less).

Very interesting. It would be useful to see an example. He kept on talking about visualising something without showing us any visuals.

This talk would benefit greatly from a presentation. It's hard to imagine what GIS is without any experience. They're talking about visualization without visualization.

That's a great talk regarding geospatial system.. This is something different which I gain some knowledge about demographics . Thanks TED!
I also grew up as a young kid!
Interesting talk!
Now thats some quality content
An absolute genius human that's contributions to climate change cannot be understated! BRILLIANT story, thank you!
Great Jack!
I wish we could use this for educational purposes where all ppl could share their knowledge and use it for our children but also for everyone that just wants to learn something new, and hopefully get away from the for profit educational system that we have, cause the more ppl in the world can learn the better chance humanity has to survive.

just so you know, they do offer free coursework. right now they're offering a course called GIS for Climate Action.- made free with the idea that if many people have the right technical tools, more of us would be able to collectively chip away at different parts of the climate crisis.
Nice mission thanks for the video
thank you
Nice class 🤩🥰❤

I don't acknowledge this as a bona fide subject for conversation because I can't believe anybody would be so stupid as to put the idea forward that the population of the world needs to be reduced. I mean you go into a house and there are dozens of people in one room and the others are empty., ... do you suggest everyone else apart from you and your friends should leave the house?

The biggest failure of the current educational system is instead of bringing up systems thinkers and multidisciplinarians it manufactures workers to make the money world go around for the wealthy. He missed the most important that it's not the change of technology we need; despite a huge number of techs that always promise to save the world we haven't solved any of the existential crises we've been facing for decades. In fact, techs in the money world just exacerbated those crises. What we really need is a change in our value system.

This is excellent! If you think he has Zoomed out too much (if you’re one of those who doesn’t get it), think of concrete examples and you’ll see... When different specialists use the tools of their field to analyze and attempt to solve problems, the solutions are limited by their training and the tunnel vision of that particular domain. When we look at multiple domains and think holistically, we come up with better solutions. It seems obvious - but it’s so infrequently done that it’s worth emphasizing. I’d love to see how GIS could be applied to increase equity in K-12 education.
