    The ability to be so granular about the results of data that is so widely collected is a super effective communication tool. Your example of "This is how your neighborhood is being measurably affected by XYZ" really sets home a message better than the nebulous conclusions normally gathered with such wide data (i.e. "Some neighborhoods somewhere are effected like this most of the time by XYZ")

    1983 second order geodetic data, human field acquired at 0.0001" resolution supported GPS ( Global Positioning Satellite) along a path of ever increasing data resolution at lower and lower cost. Digital Mapping, Remote Sensing Systems, digital communications all have been carrying us to today and beyond. Earth imaging at very fine resolution is already happening with every camera system setup and web connected. The data fusion from disparate system is already building records and actionable intelligence at microscopic resolutions. The idea of a Hard Reset seems abit to abrupt to my mind. Planet Labs is but another, welcomed addition to this explosion in earth telemetry. Just not sudden. IMO. Thanks for your content. Welcome 2024😊

    The Big thing that this allows are the following scenarios,
    Oil Company A uses the data to see how often and how long Company B offloads its oil to a terminal.
    Company A can survey globalpalm oil production and have stats on production that effects stock prices before any official reports come out.
    i can think of 10 more commercial applications off the top of my head. so much potential.

    1 meter is cool if it's very low cost but that wont replace aerial mapping. We need at least 30cm resolution that combined with AI could do both photogrammetry 3D, super resolution and fill in details to arbitrary resolution. 30cm resolution on a skyscraper is enough for AI to make a qualified guess at to what it looks like at arbitrary resolution and can make 3D models of buildings with window frames etc. 10cm resolution would be even better as then aerial mapping can be abandoned. I have suggested that microsoft (for flight sim) should have put up a cheap 30cm sat to map the world in 3D, always have current models and let AI fill in the details so it's the real world we have, not an army of modellers doing so so approximations. 30cm resolution is enough to get all the geometry of the Eiffel tower for instance. Zero manual work is key to having the whole world. So obvious for MS when they can also use it for their map services and have an edge on google for once. You probably need about a 2meter mirror at 600km to get good resolution and contrary to nasa's incompetent posturing, a 2 meter mirror is not at all hard to make.
    Just to mock nasa you could make the mirror 2.4meters to match hubble and do it for less than a million. In small series production they might be dirt cheap. And with the right technique they could also be very light. Ritchey chretien design is common for space telescope which is just two mirrors. No reason to make the mirrors thick.

    These arguments for finer and finer data sets and tools is a bit like looking at fractals. The degree to which the complexity grows and can be sorted out never ends. I would prefer us realize that as humans it seems highly unlikely to make these systemic problems pan out for us via models of continued growth.
    In other words, the hard truth might be that humans will not be able to grow both in size and complexity if the resource depletion and harmful waste streams created are important to our own survival. The microbes will eventually take over so again we seem many steps behind that kind of evolutionary adaptation.
    None of this is a "technical" problem then but the issue is more the size of the population with a global system that more or less has no inherent self-regulation or ability not to produce and yet remain in equilibrium. The perturbations are actually baked in etc. What one does in those times of radical departures from the average is more the issue and not necessarily newer and newer technologies which all carry the metaphorical weight of being part of the solution etc.
    For example, individually and collectively we find it impossible not to keep requiring more and more growth both from our economies but also our energy resources, despite, greater efficiencies among the latter. I don't know then that humans can achieve managed growth or steady-states through actual technical means. Behavior is more the issue and with billions of us we are no longer in control of that.

      Contrary to what's trying to be sold to you, individual use of energy hasn't significantly increased, and depending on how you do the math, you can actually argue that it's gone down overall given that livestock uses significant amounts of energy to maintain and individuals require less access to fresh animal products (mostly by choice) than ever before.
      It's only corporations that continue to bleed our planet despite our ever optimized energy production methods.

    4:20 I think he meant Alaska and not Africa. On something like the Azimuthal Projection, Africa would be negligible. But, the most common projection is the Mollweide one. That one makes Alaska, Russia, Argentina, and Antarctica extremely small. The most significant challenge is taking a three-dimensional shape like a sphereoid and turning it into a flattened plane...

    • @jimallen8238
      @jimallen8238 9 місяців тому

      I don’t think he misspoke. It was likely a reference to the land mass distortion caused by use of traditional Mercator projection maps that rely on spherical to cylindrical projection. Mercator maps disproportionately depict areas farther from the equator as larger.
      The African continent has a land area of 11.7 million sq miles - enough to fit in the U.S., China, India, Japan, Mexico, and many European nations, combined. Still, it doesn’t appear that way with a Mercator map.
      If you are familiar with the Peters Projection map, you would note that it attempts to depict areas on the map in direct physical proportion to their measured land mass. The Winkel Tripel projection is another alternative that attempts to reduce the skew.

      This is a tangent, but whatevs. The Mercator projection is one way to deskew a sphere for planar presentation. It relies on mapping a sphere onto a cylinder. Unfortunately, though it enabled better sea navigation, it distorts relative land mass area the farther you go from the equator. It’s just math.
      This had the side effect of reinforcing Eurocentric geopolitical thought because Europe (and Canada by the way) appears larger on Mercator maps than its land mass warrants in comparison to Africa, for instance. It is not really debatable that there were self-reinforcing cultural benefits for Europeans to continue using Mercator maps. Nothing to get up in arms about. We all use biases every day. I don’t think anyone implied evil intent.
      Funny thought: if you could patent eyeglasses that made everyone wearing them see you as taller than you really are and made tall people look shorter than you, would you have an issue if every optometrist on the planet prescribed your glasses?
