<b>KEYNOTE BY JOHN NELSON</b><br>
John Nelson is a map maker, software experience designer, and writer at Esri creating fringe geographic data, curious web experiences, marginally-educational blogs, and debatably-instructional videos. He works in a small woodshed in Michigan and relishes the
opportunity to chat with other map folks. If he didn’t live in the Midwest he’d definitely live in the PNW.<br>
