Since 2018, students from geomatics programs across Canada have been participating in the annual National Geomatics Competition. Now in it's 5th year, the University of Sherbrooke will be hosting the next iteration in March.We invite you to participate in this discussion around the opportunity for industry and academia to meet at NGC 2024.

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...
Join us at the GoGeomatics Expo in Calgary for a concise panel discussion on the present and future of geomatics education. Our panel, comprised of professors and industry experts, will address the following key topics:1. Current State of Geomatics Education:Explore the status of geomatics education in Canada.Understand how educational programs are adapting to ind...
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...
Teams can become the catalyst to co-elevate results-driven organizations accelerate outcomes, unleash their full potential, and create unprecedented internal and external value. But it’s not a given!In an increasingly volatile, uncertain, and non-linear Geomatics landscape, senior-level managers find it increasingly challenging to keep up and get things done – efficiently, effectively, and timely. The organizational silos have begun to come down, but often remain camou...
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...
The GoGeomatics Expo and our sponsors are proud to present the Diversity in Leadership Panel.As the common goals of diversity, equity, and inclusion become even more widespread, organizations have the daunting task of figuring out what works.It is our vision the expo will spur the grassroots of a more diverse ecosystem where diversity of thinking and knowledge w...
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...
Geomatics is growing technically and economically at a rapid pace. The need for skilled, knowledgeable workers is higher than ever. Some may argue that the technical advancements of the industry reduce the need for skilled workers and will remove the event of human errors. Others will argue that the very technology that is reducing human error can lead to increasing other errors and be a cause of delays on projects if the person operating the technology is not perceptive ...
