Hello GISuser... and welcome to our Thursday geotech news roundup.
I had a chance to listen to David Suzuki last night, thanks to the University School of Earth and Ocean Science for that opportunity. It's always a good day when you get an opportunity to hit a meetup with one of teh World's leading environmentalists delivering his thoughts. Suzuki is passionate about the environment and climate, like many of you, and he's worked effortlessly to help create liveable communities and connect people with nature. I suppose more than anything, I left the event with a reminder of the issues and problems we all face by living in a society where environmental matters are argued and addressed in the economic realm. Speaking of the environment, an interesting event to remind you about, enter the Summit on Earth Observation Business, Paris, Sept 11-12 - This event, organized as part of the World Satellite Business Week, offers participants a valuable opportunity to discuss current and future trends, challenges and opportunities occurring in the Earth observation sector and to network and strike business deals. While I'm on the topic of events, did you manage to catch the Esri DevSummit Chris Wanstrath (GitHub) plenary video? Chris, the founder and CEO of GitHub, is an outspoken open source advocate who's made hundreds of contributions to open source projects, and he's spoken at events like NASA Open Source Summit, RailsConf, Open Source Bridge and OSCON. Loads of goodies listed below so please, check them out, have a read and have a great day!

What is Big Data? -
Every minute the world generates 1.7 million billion bytes of data, equivalent to 360,000 standard DVDs. More digitised data was created in the last two years than in the rest of human history. This trend and the mountains of data it produces is what we call "Big data". The big data sector is growing at a rate of 40% a year.
Esri DevSummit Video - Social Coding and the Future of Open Source -
From the 2014 Esri DevSummit opening plenary video collection - 2014 Esri International Developer Summit Keynote with GitHub CEO & Co-founder, Chris Wanstrath. From Esri... "Esri uses GitHub to publicly share source for our ArcGIS solutions, and many other samples, projects, and products with the ArcGIS community. Esri also uses the Enterprise version of Github running on premises to share source between various development teams working on different parts of the ArcGIS platform."
