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.
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...
Planet's constellation of satellites capture the whole of Earth's landmass every day. This unprecedented dataset provides insights to the agricultural sector, helping farmers and the companies that serve them make informed, timely decisions. But translating that data into insights isn’t always straightforward. In this session, Greg Crutsinger will go over the fundamental ways space observation is serving agricultural customers and present new applications in satellite data - everything fro...
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...
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.
Join our DG Panel discussion moderated by Jonathan Murphy, Managing Director of GoGeomatics Canada. Our panelists are Eric Laliberté, Éric Loubier and David Harper.As a country spanning almost 10 million square kilometres, Canada has always faced a unique challenge in collecting the day-to-day information needed to provide critical services to Canadians. Today, space offers a unique perspective that is increasingly important to under...

Sanjay Kumar is the founder and CEO of Geospatial Media & Communications. He also lends his time and experience to many organizations helping them to further the cause of increasing the impact of geospatial technology and its applications at a global scale.
The increase in the availability of high-resolution lidar and other point cloud datasets has given rise to the use of this data for detecting change in the environment over time. Continual improvements in airborne technology and the miniaturization of the requisite sensors has cultivated a nimble new branch of the industry that provides cost-effective data collection services virtually on demand. This ability to employ temporal analysis of the geospatial landsca...
