Is change the new normal? Every year seems to be the next warmest year. Those of us looking back at our planet from space are seeing these changes across our planet in near real-time through the eyes of satellites. But behind those pixels are real human stories of catastrophe and suffering. So, with all our constellations of satellites, massive computing power and new generative AI algorithms, can we do anything more than simply report what happened? What does the future hold for geospatial t...
With climate change comes a massively increased risk to billions of people due to disasters, reduced food and energy security, environmental degradation, and sea level rise to name a few. For example, it is estimated that 200,000,000 people live in low-lying areas of the world considered highly vulnerable.The global OGC community has mobilized to improve how well we connect land, sea, and air Geospatial data and information, improve regional connectivity between various SDIS &nbs...
At the Earth Observation for the Environment Laboratory in The University of Calgary, we have been conducting research in developing remote sensing-based forecasting system for forest fire danger conditions since 2009. In the scope of this presentation, the chronology of such developments at daily, 4-day, and 8-day time scales will be discussed. We believe that these would be critical for managing forest fire regimes in Canada and elsewhere in the world.
Planet scans the entire land mass of the planet nearly everyday with high resolution multispectral imagery, enabling exciting new opportunities and solving old challenges for digital transformations and sustainable business acceleration. Now with our growing fleet of 8-band Superdoves in orbit, the launch of our Planetary Variables - daily soil moisture, temperature, crop and forest biomass, etc - we have evolved even greater capabilities for a new era of Earth Observation technologies. In th...
In February 2022, Balko Technologies, a Quebec-based company, launched the world's first modular drone Lidar, which aims to democratize geospatial data capture by offering a versatile, easy-to-use and quick to deploy solution. This technological showcase aims to demonstrate the performance, modularity and distinctive advantages for users of our brand new Connectiv solution and its e-LAS software, developed by a team of experts with more than 10 years of experience in airborne data capture....
In the face of escalating environmental challenges, Canada grapples with the urgent need for advanced solutions in wildfire monitoring, emissions reduction, and natural resource management. This panel discussion explores how the burgeoning "New Space" frontier offers innovative approaches to address these critical issues.We aim to provide a platform for various industry players to share their own innovative technologies and insights, creating a vibrant dialogue on crucial geospatial...
LiDAR continues to be a cornerstone of the mapping industry. Since its inception, the technology has evolved from sole use on manned aircraft to being used on UAVs and mobile mapping platforms. As the LiDAR industry continues to evolve, our panel of experts will discuss what current and future trends impacting this industry. Join our award-winning panelists for an exciting discussion. Bring your questions.
Flooding is Canada’s most costly natural disaster, and flood risk intensifies as a result of urbanization and climate change. These impacts will change over time and can jeopardize the overall sustainability of communities if they remain unaddressed. As socio-economic consequences worsen, it underlines the need for governments to provide current and accurate hazard information to vulnerable populations, including Indigenous communities who are disproportionately affected, to make decisions...
Geodetic Reference Systems are the foundation for geospatial data, serving as the official reference for latitude, longitude, height and gravity in Canada. There are many contributors to providing such standards to Canadians, including Federal, Provincial and Municipal governments, the private sector, academia, and others. Users will know that every few years there are new versions introduced of the datums or reference frames. A change in reference system, however, invo...
There is a pressing need for a global change detection system capable of persistently monitoring the entire earth with globally consistent coverage, temporally consistent sampling, scientific-grade geometric and radiometric quality, and cost-effective management of daily data. These four conditions enable near real-time monitoring and retrospective change detection applications while minimizing false positives and the required work to develop, maintain, and run harmonizing a...
Creating, managing and sharing geospatial information has never been easier, but how do we ensure the information we are using to make key business decisions is current, correct, accurate and the best fit for purpose? This session will explore the different types of geospatial information assets being used at The City and the different tools, methods and standards that are being used capture, manage and share authoritative City data across the organization and to the Citizens of Calgary.
The end of the first day of the National Canadian GoGeomatics Expo is being marked by a lively party that is eagerly anticipated by all participants. The party is being held on the floor of the tradeshow in a venue that hosts many of the best rock concerts and shows for the Calgary Stampede. It promises to be a lot of fun, with an atmosphere buzzing with excitement and energy as attendees mingle, network, and celebrate the end of a successful day.The party is made even better by the in...

In this virtual workshop, you will fine-tune a pretrained model from the ArcGIS Living Atlas of the World collection and apply it to high-resolution imagery to efficiently detect and classify objects in ArcGIS Pro. Participants will gain hands-on experience in adjusting the deep learning model parameters to enhance its accuracy and performance for specific use cases. Additionally, you will learn advanced techniques for data preprocessing, prepare training samples, and model evaluation, ensuri...
Arc Hydro is a community, data model, set of tools, and workflows to support the GIS side of hydrologic and hydraulic (H&H) analyses. Learn how to apply the Arc Hydro data model while running workflow-driven tools in a watershed modelling application. Starting with a good quality digital elevation model (DEM), you will conduct terrain preprocessing to hydrologically condition the DEM. The next step will involve input into stream drainage network identification, followed by catchment delin...
Join us at the National Geomatics Networking Reception Enjoy a selection of gourmet hors d'oeuvres, including savoury Moroccan lamb meatballs, smoked pork belly lollipops, and wild mushroom arancini with truffle oil.

Stand Out in a Crowded Market In a world overflowing with information, every company needs a compelling marketing strategy to stand out. It’s not enough to simply analyze and map data—you need to tell its story in a way that truly resonates with people. But let’s face it—translating complex geospatial data into engaging content can be a challenge.
