Maxar did a fantastic job of capturing Cape Town South Africa here. I’ve always wanted to visit this coastal city and take the ride to the top of Table Mountain then a boat ride out to Seal Island, home of the flying great white sharks. #scott_fierro https://www.instagram.com/p/CBV_UQxJ_b1/?igshid=1ba4jhy0zbys8

Incredible railhead in Tennessee captured by Nearmap. Shows the amazing engineering we have to allow that many lines to merge in and out of the railhead. #scott_fierro https://www.instagram.com/p/CBUZzSVpLni/?igshid=74nbn81o8c5m

Dust plume off the Sahara desert captured by NOAA is able to suppress hurricanes. Many hurricanes start as storms across the Sahara and can pickup to Category 2 hurricanes as they move west off the coast. These are interesting to watch because these systems often fade out over the Atlantic deep waters and strengthen early on as they near the Caribbean thus able to produce very strong hurricanes. #scott_fierro https://www.instagram.com/p/CBQ0LbeJmt9/?igshid=hadwa68mvrdy

Great GIS work done by NOAA here to do analysis on the draught in the west during May as part of its monthly precipitation analysis #scott_fierro https://www.instagram.com/p/CBOvJA1pByR/?igshid=df1ky5b8l4g5

Great image of downtown Nashville from Maxar shows a city reborn and it’s great to see how it’s come back since the 2010 flood. #scott_fierro https://www.instagram.com/p/CBMJxePp8nd/?igshid=1azw84pylvrf5

Stumbled onto this article from years ago as I begin my thesis for my MBA it’s been a long educational journey. https://www.gpsworld.com/gissecurity-defensenewsmilitary-student-turns-passion-gis-technology-career-13106/ #scott_fierro https://www.instagram.com/p/CBGZLYDJd3Y/?igshid=8mc1zg7xam6q

May 29th was the largest solar flare since 2017 and NOAA used its ultraviolet capabilities on the GOES satellite to capture it. Amazing scientific research that opens our understanding and predictions for the future. #scott_fierro https://www.instagram.com/p/CBGU4qWJUJw/?igshid=10ci3lmz7znlp

An interesting mosaic of all the Atlantic named storms from the past to years by NOAA. It’s that time of year. #scott_fierro https://www.instagram.com/p/CBCCt0YJuK9/?igshid=yli3y34jfw1h

Tropical Storm Cristobal is an interesting way to start the hurricane season because it’s just breaking into the Gulf of Mexico. As it moves north its likely to intensify and could get to a category 2 storm which is not a common occurrence. NOAA captures the center well here and for weather enthusiast it’s a start to a season that fits the way 2020 has gone so far. #scott_fierro https://www.instagram.com/p/CA_aFuppe4s/?igshid=6athzhpue4fz

This is a fantastic map showing exaggerated elevation with an antique map. Reminds me of the early things in life that got me interested in GIS. #scott_fierro https://www.instagram.com/p/CA8h-edJypM/?igshid=15sqecqzr3hi7

Shelly Beach in Manly sure looks like a nice quite spot to be right now away from all the chaos and Nearmap captured this peacefulness well #scott_fierro https://www.instagram.com/p/CA0jVvFp2BG/?igshid=1b0j2z0o8egtl
