The Science Behind Maps, Data, and Decisions
Description
Join astrophysicist Jeff Zweerink and geographer Joseph Kerski as they discuss discoveries with theological and philosophical implications that point to the reality of God’s existence.
What is where, why is it there, and why should we care? Joseph Kerski explores what geography is—and what it's not—and why it matters for sustainable, ethical, and resilient decision making today. GIS, GPS, and remote sensing are key geographic tools for understanding issues at every scale, from local to global. They’re used to study things like energy, water, habitats, natural hazards, population changes, human health, weather and climate, business site selection, supply chains, public safety, and more. Nonprofits, academia, government, and industry use such geographic thinking tools daily. Kerski examines how a Christian worldview aligns with geography’s ethic of care for the earth and its people.
