Why your geolocation skills can help in an artificial intelligence environment – DXC Blogs

Geographic Information Systems experts have leveraged their existing knowledge of analysis, design, coding, cleansing, merging, management, and leadership -- developed from their exposure to a divergent technology landscape over many years -- to evolve and survive in a modern era beyond Google mapping. But while these geo experts may have already leveraged their existing knowledge across various fields, they may not yet realize that there is another potential option available to them. They possess the fundamental skills and capabilities necessary to understand data and data modelling, which in turn gives them the option to migrate to the world of AI. Only by working in a world of AI have I realised that the terms between the two streams are so similar. Both derive heavily from the same or similar mathematical fundamentals, design principles and concepts.
