What is geospatial blockchain?
WHAT IS A BLOCKCHAIN AND HOW IS IT RELEVANT FOR GEOSPATIAL APPLICATIONS? As an immutable registry for transactions of digital tokens, blockchain is suitable for geospatial applications involving data that is sensitive or a public good, autonomous devices and smart contracts.
In which field blockchain can be used?
Supply Chains Blockchain technology has applications in a lot more areas, such as real estate (digital land records that cannot be modified without consent), and intellectual property rights (authenticating ownership and the transfer of these rights), among others.
How is data used in blockchain?

What is XYO coin?
XYO is an Ethereum token that powers XYO Network, a decentralized network of devices that anonymously collect and validate geospatial data. On the XYO World platform, XYO tokens can be traded for and staked against unique ERC-721 tokens representing real-world locations.
What is Crypto cartography?
A Map That Tracks Everything. Blockchain is also backing a new mode of mapping. Crypto-cartographers hope to use it for spatial verification—confirming that things are where they say they are, when they claim to be there.
Is blockchain only for Cryptocurrency?
There are several other cryptocurrencies with their own blockchain and distributed ledger architectures. Alongside the original Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, Bitcoin Gold and Bitcoin SV exist as their own cryptocurrency.
Can I store data on blockchain?
The intelligent way of storing data is to store the hash of the data in the blockchain. Hash is a generated string, by providing our data as input. The hash of the data is comparatively minimal; thus, the cost is low. The raw data can be stored using a file system as well.
