In this virtual workshop, you will fine-tune a pretrained model from the ArcGIS Living Atlas of the World collection and apply it to high-resolution imagery to efficiently detect and classify objects in ArcGIS Pro. Participants will gain hands-on experience in adjusting the deep learning model parameters to enhance its accuracy and performance for specific use cases. Additionally, you will learn advanced techniques for data preprocessing, prepare training samples, and model evaluation, ensuri...
GoGeomatics is hosting a pizza party for the volunteers setting up the Canada Maps and Poster Gallery at the National Geomatics Expo.

Maintaining undisturbed habitat is key to the recovery strategy of the Woodland Caribou boreal population. Seismic lines have been identified as a human footprint feature that requires specific attention for habitat restoration in part because linear features are linked to increases in the predation rates of caribou as they provide lines of sight and easy transportation routes for predators. It is estimated that there are hundreds of thousands of kilometers of seismic lines within Alberta (AB...
Large-scale habitat inventories are necessary for understanding how human land-use, natural disturbances (e.g., fire) and climate change are influencing ecological processes, species declines and how restoration can address these changes. Within the boreal forest of Alberta, Canada anthropogenic habitat alteration, also referred to as human footprint or the physical disturbance of a landscape as a result of human activity, covers over 19% of the land area. Much of this human footprint is not ...
Despite the rhetoric surrounding the use of building information modelling (BIM) to enhance collaboration by connecting people and data, the status quo is to work with proprietary solutions and closed file formats, limiting accessibility and interoperability. Additionally, the increasing complexity of projects in the Architecture, Engineering, Construction, and Operations (AECO) industry requires technology that integrates data at a range of scales, from asset to city, and beyond. To address ...
Maxar has doubled the size of its electro-optical constellation in 2024 with the launch of four new WorldView Legion satellites, and two more will be launched soon. The Maxar constellation will be tripling its 30 cm-class resolution imaging capacity and collecting imagery at new times of day. This speech will cover what these new imaging capabilities mean for monitoring opportunities that will enable energy companies to optimize operations and stay ahead of risk.
Wrap up the first full day of Canada's National Geomatics Expo with the GoGeomatics Meetup! This lively party and networking event, free to attend, starts right after the day's sessions, offering a perfect blend of fun and professional interaction. Held on the expo main floor, the meetup features a cash bar to help you unwind and enjoy the evening. Join us for an exciting night of music, mingling, and making connections with fellow attendees. Don't miss this chance to relax and expand your ne...
Today, digital twins, autonomy and artificial intelligence (AI) dominate the lexicon of the geomatics industry. These capabilities provide significant productivity advantages to our profession, but our domain content and knowledge are critical to their success. These tools will change the way we work and transform the industry. However, they will not replace us, but rather change our role. This is no different than when the EDM, total station, CAD, or GPS became part of our professional lives...

RPAS platforms and sensors have come a long way since their commerical adoption almost a decade ago and have quickly become a main stay of many professional's tool kits. This show's the industry's appetite for adopting new technologies and matching them up with the right application. With a pannel of very experienced professionals from various sectors of Canada's Geospatial RPAS scene, we explore what has driven sensor development and how sensors might further develop along the lines of use c...
The Virtual Assembly Showcase highlights the value of integrating advanced 3D laser scanning and virtual assembly in industrial construction. In a recent expansion at a major Oil Sands Refinery, detailed 3D laser scanning and surveying were employed to ensure the precise placement and assembly of three large modules while they were still in the laydown yard.The process involved scanning critical structural elements and newly poured foundation pilings to detect potential fitment issues ...
