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 :)

Where can I find Canadian postal code geometries? Heh @el chief. You're referring to the Data Liberation Initiative (which isn't). There are pretty strict rules on what you're allowed to use the data for under that agreement. statcan.gc.ca/dli-ild/guide-trousse/guide-trousse/toc-tdm/… |

Where can I get data for traffic signals, stop signs, and other sign assets/inventory? I would suggest revising your question to include these additional details. |

Is there any way I can use a Key-Value store for geospatial data? Hey @Jon, that would be better added as an Answer. That way it can stand on its own, and you'll get credit for it if people think it has merit! |

Is GIS a tool or a science? I think that whether it is objective or subjective is subjective :) Apart from the meta site, a good way of deciding on this is to use the Close button to vote for topics you think aren't answerable. |
