dc.description.abstract<p>How futures can be studied and how to avoid the general pitfalls that people face when they want to study futures? This chapter gives answers to the aforementioned questions by presenting futures studies’ ontological and epistemological premises and stating how to avoid basic challenges and pitfalls that a person wanting to study futures may face. As a proof of concept, four different geospatial scenarios are presented. Each of them represents different kind of possible futures based on which actors utilize geospatial data and how centralized society is. However, presenting only possible scenarios is not the main agenda in developing futures consciousness. Based on the concept of futures resilience, preferable futures need also be presented, one of such visions is called Digital Meanings Society. Here spaces and places are filled with meaningful experience for users.<br></p>
