This pie chart shows the gender gap in the membership of the South African Institute of Civil Engineers. We may interpret these huge gap in as many ways as we want.......” oh, there are many female civil engineers, just that they are not members of SAICE”....... I do not think so.

If you haven’t seen the #Okavango15 expedition website on a desktop yet, please visit: http://intotheokavango.org

You can follow the @intotheokavango #Okavango15 expedition real time or play back since the expedition started, including all wildlife sightings, photos, videos, sounds, tweets, and more. It is a beautiful website (and enabled by the expedition hardware and environmental internet of things sensors I built) that a lot of brilliant people poured their hearts into over long hours the last few months. All data on it is open and available for anyone to see and use however they please.

Join the team from the Okavango Delta on a LIVE twitter chat on Aug 26th at noon EDT by following @intotheokavango and @NatGeoLive on Twitter and tweeting your questions with #NatGeoLive. After nearly 100 days on expedition, the #Okavango15 team has seen a lot. There has been dangerous close calls, groundbreaking science, critical wildlife observations, cutting edge engineering, and incredible photos, video, and field recordings.

Ask us anything!

You can also follow us on instagram and twitter.

I’ve been a part of a really cool National Geographic expedition where we have gotten to engineer a lot of technology to support this live open data expedition in Angola, Namibia, and Botswana. Follow the @intotheokavango team on on instagram and twitter or at the hashtag #Okavango15.

There is a live twitter chat with the expedition happening tomorrow (August 26th) at noon EDT. Come join!
