    I used to process aerial imagery and it was so good for this reason. It was like playing Geoguesser as a job.

      That sounds like an awesome job. As someone who loves aviation, photography and maps, I’d probably really enjoy that. How’d you get into that field if you don’t mind me asking?

        I minored in GIS and needed to feed myself before going to grad school haha. Saw the advert while on Indeed. It was an underpaid production job with in house tools so they took anyone that could use a pc. Very chill though, so I didn’t mind the lower wages. A lot of that sort of thing is outsourced now.
