GeoIgnite is thrilled to present its keynote session, "Canada's Geospatial Leadership Panel," a gathering of some of Canada's most influential figures in the field of geospatial technology in Canada. Panelist: Melanie Desjardins, Director of the NWT Centre for Geomatics, showcases the application of geospatial technology in public sector management and natural resource governance. Her leadership in geomatics plays a significant role in shaping policies and strategies that utilize ...
Following the definition set out in the United Kingdom by Digital Built Britain, we understand a digital twin to be “...a realistic digital representation of assets, processes or systems in the built or natural environment…that adds social and economic value by augmenting the decision-making process.” Further, this digital representation has the capacity to exchange real time information with its physical twin and to use that information to learn, predict, or enact a possible response to a gi...
The Spatial Data Services Program at DCC is an integrated, collaborative partnership with DND’s Real Property Spatial Data group (ADM(IE), DAES/DRPS). We provide innovative data support throughout the real property asset lifecycle and play a key role in helping DND adopt cutting-edge technology and processes to sustainably manage their portfolio. We are eager to develop capacity and encourage careers in this industry by recruiting practitioners with cross-functional skill sets and knowledge o...

Guests can also enjoy fruit cocktails and yogurt. Available beverages include coffee, tea, and decaffeinated coffee.
The domains of BIM and GIS have historically been separate areas of expertise and been considered distinct and separate domains. However, the need for geospatial technologies to integrate with Building Information Modeling (BIM) design applications and the need for BIM geometry and data to be applied in Geographic Information Systems (GIS) is becoming more prevalent. In the rapidly evolving period of urban development, BIM and GIS emerge as pivotal technology tools shaping the future of...
In an increasingly complex and rapidly evolving geospatial landscape, the demand for skilled professionals who can deliver tailored solutions is at an all-time high. Recognizing this need, GoGeomatics Canada, the Sault Ste. Marie Innovation Centre (SSMIC), and OnPar have joined forces to provide comprehensive staff augmentation services that cater to both the private and public sectors.This presentation at GeoIgnite 2024 will detail ...
The Department of National Defence, as steward of a real property (RP) portfolio that includes tens of thousands of buildings and supporting infrastructure, is seeking to manage its Real Property (RP) assets more effectively by modernizing and improving its digital capability. In this effort, interoperability between BIM and GIS through open data standards is crucial to enable the Integrated Digital Built Environment. BIM allows representation of detailed information regarding building elemen...
Utilities, telecoms and municipalities are faced with increasing pressure to build infrastructure faster to meet the demands of new provincial legislature. The building broadband, transit and new homes faster acts were enacted to support the ever increasing needs of Canadian population growth from immigration. Learning how to securely faciliate the expansion of utility services required to meet the needs of a growing population is something that all utility, telecom and municipal ...
GeoIgnite is proud to present a vital panel discussion titled "Bridging Worlds: Integrating BIM and GIS for a Digital Future in Built Asset Management," featuring distinguished panelists Susan Keenliside, Deputy Director at the House of Commons of Canada, and John Hale, Vice-President of buildingSMART Canada and BIM lead at the Department of National Defence. The session will be moderated by Trevor Taylor of the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC).
Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems (RPAS), or drones, are becoming more common in the construction industry as a key tool to complete complex building and infrastructure projects. As technology improves, the barriers to adoption are reduced, creating a huge opportunity for the industry to improve the construction process and support the ongoing digital transformation. Drones boost productivity by enabling construction teams to rapidly and easily survey job sites, track progress, and spot poten...
Embark on a dynamic exploration of governance fundamentals at the Mastering Governance: Building Strong Foundations session. In the current complex and rapidly evolving business environment, implementing effective governance practices are foundational to guiding organizations toward sustainable growth and resilience.Effective ...
buildingSMART and the Open Geospatial Consortium have recently published the results of their collaborative effort aimed at developing a joint roadmap toward seamless information continuity between BIM and GIS domains. This session will provide insights regarding this collaborative effort and the joint roadmap between both organizations, which aims to enhance alignment between the two industry bodies on this critical subject. Discover how this roadmap has been crafted to capitalize on global ...
The presentation will be focused on the deployment of technological processes on the Centre Block Rehabilitation project and illustrate how the team is managing and manipulating different forms of asset element data for distribution and coordination among an exceptionally large subset of stakeholders, each with their own complex set of requirements and governance policies. Several technologies have been developed and employed to consolidate data from multiple sources so that current and futur...
