Over the past three decades, global and national economies have undergone profound transition while the governments that have tried to steer worldwide growth have been buffeted by profound changes in how citizens interact and feel about the level of services they receive. That many of them are more empowered than ever by social media, which is often said to have hastened the growth of significant divides, speaks to the need of many governmental leader to stay in touch with prevailing th...
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.
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...
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....
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.

Discover the future of Lidar and its applications, and stay at the forefront of geomatics innovation.lidarcanex.com
Wetlands are important to water quality, nutrient cycling, and biodiversity, and have been identified as a management priority across Canada. Reclaiming wetlands that have been impacted can be a long-term, costly process depending on the type of wetland, location, and potential access constraints. One challenge with wetland reclamation is that the work may cause additional or new wetland impacts during access and execution of the work. Concurrent with wetland reclamation priorities, there ...
As part of Planet’s ethos of ‘agile aerospace’, we continually invest in the latest hardware and software advancements to improve the PlanetScope image quality. This dataset began life as a relatively simple 3-band image using commercial, ‘off-the-shelf’ hardware components. Through customer feedback, both software and hardware improvements were tested and launched, resulting in a second-generation of PlanetScope, or ‘Dove’ satellites. Replacing this second generation of satellites involved a...
The talk presents how multi-band SARs (X-band Iceye, C-band RADARSAT-2 and L-band SAOCOM) support various earth observation applications, such as target identification, change and displacement detection, and soil moisture map generation. Furthermore, it presents MDA's next-generation Chorus constellation (combination of C-band and X-band SARs).
