I work as an applications analyst in a municipal information technology department, have a strong background in geographic information systems, and have been a webmaster since the early 1990's. Sometimes I wish we'd just stuck with Gopher :)

IFieldChecker problem I don't think we should be using tags for specific interfaces... that would get messy real quick. |

List of desktop GIS FOSS case studies I think it's acceptable to edit the original question, but it's probably better to have a single canonical answer below the question so the question shows as answered |

What tools are available for uploading gis data to a database? I would suggest making this question Community Wiki, since it's "List of X" with no one right answer. |

Is it possible to define a No SQL model for spatial data? if there is a question which appears to be a duplicate, you can vote to close it; keeps things cleaner. Also, since we have few users over 500, may need a mod flag to get it actually closed. |

Which tools and methods can be used to create isochrones? This kind of "List of X" question should be set as community wiki. |

Best open source operating system for open source GIS? I'd recommend at least making this kind of question with no "right" response Community Wiki. Often, subjective questions (ones asking for "best", which can turn into religious wars) will see close votes on other stack exchanges; don't think we've gelled any kind of practice here yet though. |

How can I implement ESRI REST API? not yet, but would love to chat about it. We've over-thought it several times already :) BTW, if include my @username, I get notifications of response :) |

What's the difference between a projection and a datum? I wonder if this would be best as a community wiki, where we could collectively roll all of the answers up into a single, combined best answer. I'm personally not especially fond of broad questions where the answers are easily found on wikipedia, etc. |

Best practices for managing geospatial data It would be useful to know what kind of files you use, what applications require access to the files, etc, etc. |
