In this episode of On Point with Korem, I had the opportunity to speak with Andy Dearing, the former CEO of Boundless Geo and now General Partner and Geospatial Project Lead at GeoFutures STL, an organization leading the economic development of geospatial technology in the St. Louis area. We spoke about a breadth of topics including the changing nature of deploying both open source as well as commercial geospatial solutions and the tradeoffs of both and how this has impacted the ability to find qualified technologists that are skilled in both programming and location analytics.
