Good information but recommended excluding or making sure the background music doesn’t overpower your own speaking voice. Had to rewind 100 times because music is too loud
Thanks and still figuring out how to edit these!
Keep up the good work Matt, these videos are really helpful!
Thanks and will do!
you are my mentor for GIS from now...Thank you
Appreciate it and happy to help!
Thanks Matt, your videos are much appreciated and great content!
Thank you Elise!
Amazing video i really appreciate it as a geomatic student who wants to dive deep into the gis world . Would love if there is a road map for beginners cause I find the starting point so confusing . I hope you can make a video about it . And thank you again🙌🙏
I have a road map in my other videos if you want to check that out!
Good work!
Appreciate it!
I think something that's difficult with modern GIS software is cartography. It's definitely gotten better in ArcPro than what it used to be but making beautiful maps requires you use other software such as Illustrator. Open source options exist with programs such as Inkscape which are helpful but it would be nice to keep everything in one program
That’s true if you need very custom print maps then Illustrator is a good tool.
Thanks Matt - and for all you do. Map on!
Appreciate it!!
Very nice 😊 love you Matt😊💖
Thank you! 😃
Hi Matt, thanks for the explanation, I would like to ask you a question, how does the work of a developer differ from that of a GIS developer? What are the differences in terms of skills and actual coding?
Also, I would like to know more about GIS by reading a book, is there any book you would recommend for that?
Thanks a lot!
So the work varies a bit as there are sometime specialized backends for GIS developers. Traditionally this includes things like Geoserver or Geonode but more databases and data warehouses are adding geospatial capabilities along with map tiling services to render the data. As for books there is a great book coming out soon - Python for Geospatial Data Analysis: Theory, Tools, and Practice for Location Intelligence a.co/d/dAxPA2b
Amazing video... Please add subtitles to the video. Thank You
Thank you!
May I ask if it's possible to learn GIS online ad a Certificate, as a graduate who doesnt have a Geography or Geology degree?
Yes definitely working on a course
Hello sir, Please give me a suggestion. Master of Planning or Master of Geospatial Information Systems which one is best for Future career ? I am planning for higher study in Australia.But now i feel disappoint for making decision. My background was Geography & Environment for both times B.S and M.S . Please give me your personal opinion.
Thank you from Bangladesh.
If you have the geography background applying that with planning could be a great combination but before doing anything check the job demand and salaries in your area to gauge which has a more robust job market.
Audio is very low in this video
Yeah this is one of my first videos - still learning!
The music is distracting. It prevents hearing and understanding. Thank you for your consideration.
Still working on my editing skills but good call!
I didn't know the first John Snow.
I know I didn’t either before making this video!
@@MattForrest 😀
Shirt same colour as background 😊
I was still working on my filming skills back then
Matt, please check the sound. It should be a bit louder
Thanks still learning how to edit!
Thanks for the video, but please get a better mic or speak more loudly.
Yes thanks for the feedback!
@@MattForrest The level of the music is too high for the voice. And the explanation is a bit fast to catch for beginners.
