The Change Includes

• Social media- not just for home

• Wire vs Wireless (Mobile)– Web services are real– Geoweb is really real– Mobile will rule very soon

• Funding may come in ways we have never considered before- and that’s ok

Social Media- Channels

• TV advertisers have known for a long time- put commercials on channels your buyers watch

• There are numerous social media tools. You have to communicate on the right channel(s) or you will not be heard

Social Media- Twitter

SO WHAT?!

Page 14: Who? What? Why we better care?

NATIONAL STATES GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION COUNCIL

Social Media- So What?!

• A bunch of answers• Here’s two• 1: You are likely responsible for coordination & collaboration- why don’t you do this with tools folks already use?

• 2: These tools are changing the way data is collected and business decisions are made- FAST!

Page 15: Who? What? Why we better care?

NATIONAL STATES GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION COUNCIL

Social Media- Twitter

• What impact is Twitter going to have on generating a POI file using business logic and the geolocate?

• How can social media tools be used to build, enhance, or edit location information?

• Are ready to map the world at 1:1 and have access to information faster than CNN?

Page 16: Who? What? Why we better care?

NATIONAL STATES GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION COUNCIL

Social Media- Mashups

• Are we prepared to mashup various feeds from social media tools and make intelligent decisions?

• How few cell phones are needed to track traffic? "Results suggest that a 2-3% penetration of cell

phones in the driver population is enough to provide accurate measurements of the velocity of the traffic flow."

That's just one conclusion of a study titled Evaluation of Traffic Data Obtained via GPS-enabled Mobile Phones: the Mobile Century field experiment (pdf) from UC Berkeley's Institute for Transportation Studies.

Wire vs. Wireless (Mobile)

• Little secret:

Mobile is on the Mobile is on the increaseincrease

• Impact– Application development– Information input/output occurs faster– Funding– List another one

Page 19: Who? What? Why we better care?

Wire vs. Wireless (Mobile)

• Exerts from Radar.Oreilly.com– The phone is going to become the primary I/O device for geodata in the near future. What new applications are you building for it? How are the social aapps effecting society and our notions of privacy?

– Mobile phones are being used to generate maps and other geodata. Sensors across the world are capturing more data every second. Reality mining systems are being used to release this data to users in realtime. Who is making the most of this deluge? How can they handle these new data sets?

Wire vs. Wireless (Mobile)

• Exerts from Radar.Oreilly.com– Realtime data requires the element of time to be added. This is uncharted design territory. How should time come to the Web? 

– Web mapping is moving past just allowing the display of data (aka red-dot fever). There are now many tools online that help people analyze data and could, in time, challenge traditional GIS systems. How is the Web different? Will end-users take up richer tools? 

Page 21: Who? What? Why we better care?

NATIONAL STATES GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION COUNCIL

Wire vs. Wireless (Mobile)

• Exerts from Radar.Oreilly.com– Every updated browser can now geolocate it’s user. Websites are now going to start using this information. What should they do with the information? What new services can be created? 

– The combination of a camera, a GPS and a compass on a mobile phone is going to let us layer information on top of the world. What do you want to see? How will you edit the layers?

Economics

• When marginal cost are so low you round down

• Free– Free Drinks– That is so cheap it is viewed as free

•What is the minimum cost at which the product is too good a deal

•This ties to money vs. time and what do you have more of?

95% vs 5%

Funding

• Time and money are two things we all have?– Assuming that statement is false what does the increase in users / technology mean?

– I think it provides an opportunity for business models that are quite different than asking X government entity for money.

– Mobile presents interesting opportunities

WARNING

The story I am telling is totally made up and not real- today

Or at least I think it is made up

Did not include in slide deck for fear of confusion

• Few thoughts– Can we do more with less?

Authoritative Data Sources– 1-x Gov employee– 10 people saying the same thing– 100 people saying the same thing– 1,000 people saying the same thing– 10,000 people saying the same thing– 100,000 people saying the same thing– 1,000,000 people saying the same thing– 10,000,000 people saying the same thing

 We should rethink everything we thought we knew

Twitter store location data–that is, latitude

and longitude coordinates–on a per-tweet basis, and for your user profile

What critical mass makes this:

1.A hospital

2.St. Vincent Hospital

3.What if the legal name is Doctors Hospital

Funding

• Few thoughts- continued– Will we always by an ortho?

•Do you really just need change?– Why purchase and store all the additional information?» Why not just buy pixel changes?

– Given the mobile trend who might be interested in having their location highlighted?•How much would they pay?

– Are they a new player?» Have you had that discussion?
