Happy #GISDay to all. Since I can't attend a poster session, here's a snip of a map that I've been working with lately. Red areas are tracts in North Texas where the average annual household spend on food is less than Feeding America estimates a year of healthy meals would cost.

đŸ§”: This is an excellent (and heartbreaking) example of impactful storytelling via maps, showing how inequity permeates our society. The spatiotemporal links among nearly every demographic and socioeconomic measure are *strong*

I replaced my external monitor over the weekend, but couldn’t find a suitable monitor stand in my local stores. I guess questions about causality and SAS will have to wait until tomorrow night’s Amazon delivery. (Don’t @ me about those cords I KNOW)

This looksđŸ”„If I get it correctly, the idea that, with enough data, a non-spatial model approximates space to improve predictions is both great news for geographers (space matters!) and maybe a sobering note (do we need sophisticated spatial modelling with enough data/compute?)
