Good Morning All,

I found this blog thought provoking today.

“Long term users of GIS are too often hamstrung by managers who still see GIS professionals as ‘simply map makers’. Education is key, but too often GIS professionals lack the time to investigate and show the new power of GIS to managers. Those new to GIS need careful attention. GIS is complex. Again education is king. A carefully planned, well communicated path is needed to guide these clients through the phases of any and all GIS implementation.”
