Google Earth 'time machine'

Some elements of this story have been around for a while....

Thanks Jason

A well deserved step up for Jason, who I have known for quite a while now, and who has always been helpful and supportive... we ran joint courses for a while about 10 years ago when I was working for the GA. Follow Jason on Twitter to see where he goes next....

ESRI's tools have come a long way, and are now free for most and increasingly powerful and flexible.

Some personal news. Yesterday was my last day as Head of Education at @esriuk as I have moved to a new role with @Esri to be the Global Manager for Schools.
A big thank you to @geogologue and @GIS4HE for being great team mates and committed fancy dress collaborators😀! pic.twitter.com/EA2A18dEjU

500 up

A small milestone perhaps, compared to the 10 000+ posts over on LivingGeography, but passed 500 posts on this blog, which has actually been around for quite a while, in fact predating LivingGeography. The blog began as part of a project funded by the Royal Geographical Society's Innovative Geography Teaching grants - I've received quite a few of them over the years.

It has broadened beyond Google Earth to take in Digimap for Schools and then ESRI's ArcGIS Online and StoryMaps.

Meanwhile Google Earth has changed, moving to the PRO download, which is still my preferred format, and now the Chrome browser version with its Projects builder option....
