After recently celebrating Van Gogh's 169th birthday, we designed a 'Starry Night' inspired basemap within #ArcGIS Online to mark the occasion. Read about the process and access the basemap in this blog: ow.ly/2AYk50IUGt2

I was very proud of this piece and so excited for it to be shared by WWPIS. Thank you

In the run up to #InternationalWomensDay, we asked our colleagues why this year's theme #BreakTheBias is important to them.
Here is what Balqis had to say:
Keep an eye out for more colleague responses over the next few days. #IWD2022
ALT Esri UK employee quote about International Women's Day 2022. Why is breaking the bias important?
Resilience is a key trait for gymnasts. Not only to help them succeed within gymnastics, but also to protect their mental health.
As part of my MSc in Sport & Exercise Psych I have written a guide on resilience and how to build it for coaches and parents

Resilience is key for protecting mental health and performance under pressure and helping athletes bounce back after stressful events. Coaches and parents play an instrumental part in helping gymnasts develop the skills required to be successful in sport frsportperformance.co.uk
Roll on 2021! Very good excited to have been offered a place at @lborouniversity to study Sport and Exercise Psychology. This has been a dream course for a while now so I was pretty thrilled to receive this email last night 🙌🏻🙌🏻
When we are seeing numerous reports of the negative mental effects that regular weigh-ins have had on children in gymnastics, figure skating and dance, why would someone think this is a good idea? Kids should be encouraged to make healthy choices, not made to feel guilty.
Should schools weigh pupils to make sure they shift the pounds they've put on during the lockdown?
Health experts want two weigh-ins in September and then in the spring to keep kids on track. But could this just create a generation of calorie counters? #JeremyVine
As someone who was home educated until the age of 12/13, I believe it shouldn’t be ruled out for families who have the resources to manage it by government pressure. Following trauma, school may not be right for every child and perhaps we need to be open to other options

Really pleased to see this from @BritGymnastics today. It’s so important to create a safe and positive environment for athletes to train and grow up in, and teaching coaches that it’s unnecessary to weigh young athletes is a step in the right direction british-gymnastics.org/news-…
Study showed that high/periodised CHO diets improved performance in elite race walkers LCHF diets showed increased capacity for fat oxidation during intense exercise, but impaired energy economy, would LCHF diets be more effective short term? #DSES3211 physoc.onlinelibrary.wiley.c…
Phinney et al shows that a 4-week ketogenic diet did not compromise elite cyclist performance and could potentially be beneficial for events lasting multiple days, could this be applied to ultra-endurance triathletes? #DSES3211 vladozlatos.com/project/file…
