Space, the final frontier. Or is it? Although many people are fascinated by space, most are relatively unaware of how space technologies pervade their everyday life. From global positioning systems (GPS) and satellite communications to weather forecasting and monitoring the health of crops or the extent of sea ice, the standard of living we currently enjoy is fundamentally dependent on satellites and space technology. Space is becoming even more important in monitoring the changing climate, p...
The Alberta Biodiversity Monitoring Institute (ABMI) defines human footprint as the visible alteration or conversion of native ecosystems to temporary or permanent residential, recreational, agricultural, or industrial landscapes. It also includes land that is periodically reset to earlier successional conditions by industrial activities such as forestry harvest areas and seismic lines. To monitor and map human footprint across Alberta, the ABMI, in partnership with the Alberta Human Footprin...
How exactly does artificial intelligence work and what can you use it for in the geomatics domain? Using real-life examples from our projects, they demonstrate how you can use AI to gain new insights and increase efficiency by automating your data processing workflows.We explore how GeoAI is fusing spatial data science and Geomatics technology to help automate the extraction, classification, and analysis of all types of spatial or non-spatial data. Learn how GeoAI can detect clusters, ...
Too often, when discussing the value proposition of geospatial data, we focus in on raw data or output products without spending a lot of time in the juicy middle of data throughputs. That is to say that modern geospatial is leaving a lot of value on the table and thus limiting our ability to good with our data by: -> Focusing too heavily on the capturing aspect of geospatial technologies;-> Ignoring or discounting analytical capabilities of geospatial technologie...
30 years ago, a small group of engineers came together to work on the then difficult problem of interoperable technology, systems and data. These visionaries formed the Open Geospatial Consortium which has helped the world figure out how to collect, process, and share geospatial data over the internet and across a wide variety of technology systems. Today, with the proliferation of technology types, sensors and a...
The integration of AI in infrastructure modeling has the potential to revolutionize decision-making processes by providing accurate predictions, identifying vulnerabilities, and optimizing resource utilization.The increasing complexity of modern infrastructure systems, coupled with growing demands on utilities, has necessitated the adoption of advanced analytical techniques. This panel discussion brings together ideas from acad...
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 ...
In December 2023 a unique gathering of technology and talent gathered on Alcatraz to capture the entire island, inside and out, from the ground and from the air to assist the National Park Service understand the risks seal level rise and climate change present to the island. Join me and, perhaps, other members of the extended team as we share the technology, the experience, and the adventure of this unique experience.
