Radiant Earth

Jed Sundwall⁠ is Executive Director of ⁠Radiant Earth⁠. This organization increases '...shared understanding of our world through community-led initiatives that make data easier to access and use.' This organization is motivated by our incapacity to address global issues such as accumulation of greenhouse gases and deforestation. They have identified poor collaboration and difficulty sharing data as causes. To foster easier collaboration and data sharing, we discuss a couple of Radiant Earth initiatives - Source Cooperative and Cloud Native Geospatial Forum. An example of results from the latter is CNG Virtual Conference 2024. ⁠Recordings here⁠. Jed was an incredibly effective communicator. He also wins for having the best microphone of any guest so far. Thanks Jed for being up for this. THE GEOSPATIAL INDEX The Geospatial Index is a comprehensive listing of all publicly traded geospatial businesses worldwide. Why? The industry is growing at ~5.4% annually (after inflation and after adjusting for base rates). This rate varies significantly, however, by sub index. For ~$400,000 to start, this growth rate is $5,000,000 over a working life. This channel, Bluesky account, newsletter, watchlist and podcast express the view that you are serious about geospatial if you take the view of an investor, venture capitalist or entrepreneur. You are expected to do your own research. This is not a replacement for that. This is not investment advice. Consider it entertainment.
