    F the geomonkey.

    Next thing you know, you’ll have us swinging geo-thundersticks and rooting for the geo-angels and John “dissolve” Lackey.

    We need a new, improved mascot…

    Don’t fear the GeoMonkey.

    He is only related to the Rally Monkey in last name only.

    Sadly, it’s only GIS Day in the USA.

    Here in dear old Blighty, things are rather different:

    Apparently, the UK Ordnance Survey has recently asserted such strict rules for re-using its data that even the London Metropolitan Police may now be in breach of their licence for publishing a crime map online.

    And the winners of a UK government-sponsored competition to suggest new web-mapping applications, mostly based on Google Maps, would probably be in breach too.

    I understand that no prizes were awarded for joined-up thinking.

    The GeoMonkey is fortunate to live in the Land Of The Free Spatial Data – he’d probably starve on this side of the Atlantic…

    Run free, GeoMonkey, run free!
