#spatialepi — Public Fediverse posts

ArcGIS “Home Use” just lost a bunch of important features.

Not only is Geostatistical Analyst gone, but so are Spatial Analyst, Network Analyst, 3D Analyst, and Suitability Modeler. The whole toolbox got nuked.

I’m an epidemiology graduate researcher who needs tools like Empirical Bayesian Kriging (EBK) for spatial epidemiology work. QGIS still can’t do EBK, so that's a non-starter. When my student license expires I’ll have to cough up ≈ US $600 / yr to get what I need to keep doing public health mapping.

Sure, I can script EBK in R with spBayes, but Arc Pro’s wizard auto tunes the priors and finishes in minutes, not hours.

Esri, please stop pricing early career researchers out of the tools we depend on.

✨ Hello #EpiVerse and friends! ✨

I'm Jen, a psychiatric epidemiologist and public mental health researcher, currently working at UCL.

I am interested in the social and spatial determinants of mental illnesses. Much of my research has focused on migrants, refugees, and other historically marginalised populations.
