We are planning a couple of meetings about Clojure in Geography.
On the first meeting, we will meet Will Cohen, who is an urban planner and the author of several Clojure libraries for geospatial analysis.
Will will give an overview of the state of the geospatial ecosystem for Clojure/Java in 2020.

Here is the meeting video:
We had a talk from our friend Will Cohen, an urban planner from Boston.
Will is the maintainer of the Geo library and the author of Ovid and Aurelius.
The talk began with a general introduction to GIS and geospatial analysis, mainly in the context of urban planning. Then, Will went through the history, the state of the art, and the vision for the future of GIS in Java, Clojure, and Clojurescript.
In the discussion, several members shared their problems and practices. We also discussed the possible next steps in building the Clojure GIS stack, and possible ways to collaborate.
