Ikagi

((( WIP )))

I saw this posted on Twitter the other day and was intrigued ikagi

I'm wondering what kind of career I should be aiming for. I'm already focusing on increasing my skills to help me do things that I like to do, but how can I strive for learning to do things that I'll be paid for?

I thought it might help to narrow down the things that I'm interested in to help me firgure out what kind of professions I can aim for so that I know exactly what skills I should be increasing/acquiring so that I'll eventually get paid for doing things I love.

I think there's sort of a hierarchy to my interests, and I think the top of it is:

Quick basemap thoughts

Basemaps

Or baemaps if you're typing too quickly

First question:

How much work do you want to do

  1. All teh works
    Then desktop GIS is for you! Go ahead and find every single background layer you could ever think of and download it! Parks, roads, cemeteries, buildings, streams, water bodies, railroads, wetlands, parking lots, forests, farms...
    Now load them all up in your desktop GIS of choice (who are we kidding. It's ArcGIS). Style away! Don't forget to think about scale ranges. So style each thing for each scale range!
    Not keen on GUIs? Then grab an old dusty copy of Tilemill, load up each of your layers per usual, and then start writing CartoCSS. It's fun!
