Brian B. Quinn, GIS Analyst, County of Marin, CA talks with Virtual Edge

Since 2006, Brian B. Quinn has been finding ways to use geospatial data to define mirror world content in simulators accessed by Linden Lab type viewers. To date, he has recognized three levels of detail in mirror world builds based on real-world map data. Brian was trained as an exploration geophysicist, but to remain in the San Francisco Bay Area, he turned away from both academic and petroleum pursuits to work for a leading architecture, engineering, and construction firm. While there, Brian applied digital signal and image processing techniques to satellite and other remotely-sensed imagery. He also was trained to apply GIS to engineering and environmental projects.
