Hangouts with James Fee:: JavaScript is the New Black
Thanks to Chris Helm of Esri for joining me for the hangout. We talked about JavaScript, FreshyMap, Dojo, D3, and tons more. Make sure you catch Chris at this year’s Esri Dev Summit.
The IRC log for the hangout is located here.
This Week’s Hangout with Chris Helm of Esri
This week’s guest is Chris Helm of Esri. I talk a lot about how Python has changed GIS, but Javascript has done as much in the visualization space as anything. We go live at a later time this week to accommodate Chris’ travel schedule. The hangout starts at 12pm MST/PDT (note the time shift thanks to stupid daylight saving time). The Google+ event page has all the details.
Hangouts with James Fee:: OpenEnterpriseGeo
Thanks to Alyssa Wright of OpenGeo for joining me today to talk about their new Enterprise Console, what open means to OpenGeo and women (or diversity in general) in GIS.
The IRC chat log is archived here.
We are hoping next month to have a nice diversity hangout with women and others who would like to talk about how to improve the environment. If you’ve got suggestions, please email me any suggestions. We hope to start planning the panel next month with Alyssa’s help.
This Weeks Hangout with Alyssa Wright of OpenGeo
This week I’ve got a great guest, Alyssa Wright of OpenGeo. Alyssa just gave a presentation at FedGeo about the new OpenGeo Enterprise Console which I’ve embedded below. We also will talk about what open means to OpenGeo (compare and contrast with Andrew Turner’s hangout) as well as why given that there are so many women in GIS, this is only the 3rd woman I’ve had on my hangout.
As always we go live Wednesday, March 6th at 11am MST. You can either tag tweets with the hashtag #hwjf or join the chat live.

So as long as you’ve had access to the Internet the past couple months you’ve heard of D3 and how people are using it for visualization in the browser. Well, if you’ve been watching from the outside wondering how to get started, you might have seen there is a book called, “Interactive Data Visualization for the Web, An Introduction to Designing with D3”. It’s in early release right now but that’s going to be a huge win for you if you haven’t bough it yet because O’Reilly has all their early release books half off this week. That means the eBook can be yours for about $10.
D3 is changing how we are sharing geospatial information in the browser, you should get this book if just to understand how it is being used.
