Glad to have been part of this year’s #geocom17 lightning talks. https://t.co/LFoKTMBqsA

[Association for Geographic Information @GeoCommunity]

Really impressed by the standard of all our lightning speakers this year -- only 7 minutes each, but so much being crammed in! #GeoCom17

[Association for Geographic Information @GeoCommunity]

All of our lightning speakers agree - better dialogue needed with gov and local authorities, understanding how to use geodata. #GeoCom17

Some fascinating geospatial research with ML being done at the ONS Data Campus @New_To_Dave #ons #geocom17

@ChimniWalley Presumably any edits and their before / after state become part of the enduring record as well?
