'Why geography and location are so important in today's digital world – linking Geography, Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence'
Where we live, where we work, where we currently are, where we are going to, where we are coming from and where we would like to go are all very important geographical aspects of our everyday life. Every day we all interact with the world around us through our smartphones, smart devices and computers. This might be: geotagging an Instagram or social media photograph/post, finding where the nearest cafe is, looking up the time for the next bus or train, finding the quickest route to the airport, the weather for tomorrow, and so on. How do all of these really great features of today's digital technologies actually work? By combining Geography, Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence we can explore, interact, and see the world in ways that would have been unimaginable ten, twenty or thirty years ago.
