As a GIS professional for around 18 years, I am starting to see the salaries in my area for entry and mid level GIS job positions be much lower and not as desirable as other professional career paths. I am not as easily recommending GIS careers unless it is something that is a passion or enjoyable type of job for a person. I enjoy GIS and find it fulfilling but I am also planning for a future in an alternate career path as I see ceilings with my current trajectory.

I'm a software engineer mainly working in the web domain. I'm at the point in my career where I'm finding it very boring at my current job. While thinking about doing some side hustle I ended up thinking about making maps for clients like municipalities and companies because I love maps and cartography in general. Though, I love them very naively, I have never dabbled into what goes behind making maps and cartography I just love looking at maps and analyzing its features. While researching about how I can combine my knowledge as a software engineer and my hobby of maps and geography, I stumbled upon your channel and learned about GIS. I'm very intrigued by the field, I even took an introductory lecture on coursera just to test the waters. I think I will enjoy learning about GIS but I am not sure if that's what I am looking for. I want to design and illustrate maps as a side hustle so my question is, will learning GIS and ArcGIS specifically be worth my time or not? I know it is literally the tech behind maps but is GIS(and ArcGIS) a lot take if I just want to illustrate maps as side hustle? are there any other tech which is more suitable for my needs? Thank you so much. Appreciate the work you are doing.

Glad to hear that! As many others my education in university was all on Esri tools but I started using open source after I graduated in 2010. There is a ton of great content to learn but it isn’t always super easy to find. I think it is great to add more skills as well as languages that can help you in other fields too! That’s one of many big advantages of modern GIS!

Awesome! Could you cover more on GIS front-end libraries. Google Maps JS API does not support COG or GeoParquet but offers the best basemaps. It is also behind on being developer-friendly for functionally like adding and removing or setting transparency on layers. What’s the best choice?
@MattForrest
Жыл бұрын
So personally I like DeckGL but it requires some pretty deep JavaScript knowledge but it’s very performant and has many more styling options. Leaflet and OpenLayers also have good options but almost all front end libraries will render GeoJSON from files. Apart from that you will need to create tiles which can be done in a few different ways like QGIS and Tippecanoe.

Both are great tools to add some flexibility into automating those tools. You can do many of the same things with Python such as spatial joins but sometimes it helps to use those tools more complex built in analyses to speed things up.

Definitely! I would use your undergrad experience and use that as a base to use the tools. QGIS is an easy place to start with lots of great tutorials on their site. From there pick up some programming languages like SQL and Python, plus I would focus on some raster analysis for environmental analysis too.

@jazzmann1984
Жыл бұрын
As someone who works with Esri products exclusively, yes you are in a good position. Esri's native programming is in Python but also has a bridge to R. You can run your python scripts directly from your Pro project, and if you get a single-use license you will have all the extensions that he describes above. Esri goes further than QGIS which is why I find that any of Esri's products has what I need and more. You also get to use pre-made basemaps instead of looking at your data on a blank white screen, or you can make custom basemaps. You don't need all the plug-ins to use most of the analyses that you need in QGIS. It comes with the platform and often you won't need to write scripts for most things. However, I still recommend learning SQL and Python when you need them. Most cases often revolve around cleaning large datasets. I hope this helps! 😀

@saul cf from what I'm able to gather, if I'm understanding your question correctly, is that Esri's products are based in Python and to make R work natively would make them have to make duplicate versions of software. So, they built a bridge to R, which works but is not as fluid as just pulling up a Python script directly into your ArcGIS Pro project.
