A podcast from Ayres, a nationwide collective of designers, planners, scientists, and facilitators. Hosts Keely Campbell and Nathan Vaughn give you a fresh look at architecture and urban planning, geospatial, engineering, landscape architecture, and environment. We take tangents with co-workers, clients, and students – basically anyone who will let us chat with them – to explore what it's like to be part of our team. If you ask us, it's like taking a breath of Fresh Ayres.
On the 12th episode of Fresh Ayres, Josh and Keely are again joined by Zach Nienow and Adam Derringer to explore MORE things geospatial. Tune into the second of a 2-part episode where Adam and Zach discuss how geospatial has changed and where it's headed in the not-so-far away future. As we learned in our previous conversation, geospatial has endless implications in our everyday lives, from getting to the store to designing a city to ensuring energy is available and transmitted to the people that need it. This time around, Adam and Zach share how their work will continue to transform sectors such as urban planning, agriculture, transportation, and disaster management.
