TechTalk Radio: How geospatial is making geography sexy

LISTEN: The EG TechTalk team have gone a bit crazy over mapping recently, but rightly so. Geospatial technologies have an important and infinitely useful role to play in the built environment.

In this week’s episode – part two of a trilogy of mapping podcasts – we sit down with Ian McGuiness, Knight Frank’s head of geospatial mapping, to find out more about this evidence-based approach to planning and why it is time for geography to come out of the shadows across the planning and development sphere.

Lucy Alderson, EG’s latest recruit, joins TechTalk Radio co-hosts Emily Wright and Samantha McClary in the studio to talk about her upcoming interview with Mapping GM (the final chapter in our trilogy) and her role keeping EG readers up to date about the latest news, views and insights from the tech world.

And KPMG’s Eden Dwek and Carlos Adams, co-founder of Tech Academy finalist Aphex, talk about the lessons they have learnt so far from their mentoring sessions ahead of June’s Tech Academy big pitch.
