Tickets for this workshop must be claimed in advance.Interested in learning web mapping with JavaScript? Join our introductory workshop on Leaflet (https://leafletjs.com), an open-source JavaScript library for mobile-friendly interactive maps! This workshop will guide participants through creating a simple choropleth map (thematic polygon map) using Leaflet. No prior programming knowledge required. Note: You will need access to a personal (free) GitHub accou...

Join Jonathan Murphy, Nicholas Kellett and John Roos as they kick off the start of Winter Geo:GeoIgnite 2022.
In this talk Dan Nord will share key insights on Maxar’s position as a centerpiece in the global tech shift from 2D to 3D. Join us to hear more about how Maxar is accelerating its Earth Intelligence business with the launch of WorldView Legion in 2022, as well as building on our lead in mapping, monitoring, and new markets of the future.
"GHG Monitoring from Space: A mapping of capabilities across public, private and hybrid missions" was a collaborative effort undertaken by the Group on Earth Observations (GEO), WattTime, and the World Geospatial Industry Council (WGIC).This report, presented at the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) Earth Information Day at the 26th session of the Conference of the Parties (COP 26), was the first syst...
In Budget 2021, the government tabled a recovery plan for jobs, growth, and resilience. Within the budget were specific investments to promoting a healthy environment for a healthy economy, with $145.5 million dedicated to supporting initiatives that will increase resiliency to the natural hazards of wildfires and floods, which are becoming more frequent, severe, and devastating due to climate change and urban development. Flood hazard maps are essential to un...
Abstract: Organizations are increasingly relying on geospatial analysis to power their decision making and business processes. But in such a dynamically changing world, maintaining an accurate database of critical locations is no small task. Everyday worldwide, businesses open and close, change names, or update their operating hours. When these changes happen, any map, application, or model immediately becomes stale. How can organizations strategize if they are not...
NV5 Geospatial has been at the forefront of hydrospatial data acquisition and processing for decades. This presentation will provide a brief corporate introduction and overview of some of the technologies relevant to remotely sensed hydrospatial data collection and development. This will also include associated analyses and ancillary data integration to solve questions surrounding hydrology and wetland mapping, flood risk modeling, and habitat...
The landscapes in the Northwest Territories (NWT, Canada) are amongst the most rapidly changing in the world due to climate-induced permafrost thaw. This presentation provides an overview of recent remote sensing and mapping investigations of permafrost thaw landslides across different spatial and temporal scales in the NWT. A common thread of ever-expanding geospatial capabilities (remote sensing, machine learning) is juxtaposed against rapidly intensifying permafrost thaw with many growi...

Our planet is in flux: pandemics, climate change, inequality. This talk will explore the ideas of "planetary-scale" as it pertains to the geospatial community’s work. We will be looking at how we need planetary-scale thinking to address the planetary-scale problems we are now being challenged with. We don’t have a “Planet B", so how can geospatial technology be used to ethically approach some of the most pressing issues our species have collectively faced? &...
Dr. Marshall and Keith Masback will explore climate change and what happens at the intersection of climate and the Earth’s surface.
Maritime regions are vast, vessels of interest operate dark, and the agencies responsible for maritime enforcement need to deploy scant resources efficiently to make the greatest mission impact. Maxar has developed the Crow’s Nest Maritime Monitoring and Security (MMS) product to address this need. The product leverages space-based optical and radar imagery, AIS, advanced ma...

By some estimates, 80% of response time during a disater is spent procuring and preparing data, leaving 20% of the time learning from data. We can do better. Sponsored by USGS/FGDC, Natural Resource Canada, NASA and supported by CONIDA (Peru) and Amazon Web Services, the goal of the pilot was to develop standards-based services to support rapid decision making through the full life-cycle of disaster management for multiple hazards.

This workshop will use open tools and standards to create STAC compliant data for a Canadian Federal Dataset. The workshop will focus on the nuances of working on Canadian Data in a Cloud environment. It will further demonstrate modern geospatial data science tools to create a SpatioTemporal Asset Catalogue. Sparkgeo will also demonstrate use in leading desktop and cloud mapping software.

Join us in this training to learn about some of the latest and greatest features in ERDAS IMAGINE! With the exponentially increasing amount of data being collected in the world today, customized repeatable, batchable workflows are needed to extract as much valuable information from raw data as possible. The Spatial Modeler is the key to setting up these types of workflows. The creation of spatial models and the use of AI, machine learning and deep learning allow mo...
