Lightning Talks
summary
Rapid-fire practical outcomes and tools: Wikidata holds 67 million items and ~5.8 billion triples with SPARQL access; OpenStreetMap workflows recommend StreetComplete, iD and JOSM plus validation with OsmCha; a Plotly/D3 prototype lets mouse-driven species comparisons on maps; QGIS geometry generators produce buffers, wobbly lines and raster-derived vectors; PDAL and LASTools feed OpenTopography point‑cloud viewers; map cache generation drops from 8 days to 3 hours using Singularity on 44 nodes; browser service workers offline caching demos work.
