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, ...
The session will focus on considerations for deploying Artificial Intelligence in professional practice; identifying potential landmines and working on solutions from a privacy-first perspective. The talk will include a high-level overview that underscores the fundamental components that encapsulate an AI derived “solution” and delve into a practical, real-world example being tested on an active project.Topics Covered:• An illustrated example of BIM model query using AI• AI too...
For the last five years I have been providing reality capture services to documentary film producers. These series have included NatGeo's Buried Secrets of WWII, NatGeo's Drain the Oceans, Discovery's Expedition Unknown and Expedition Bigfoot. LiDAR, photogrammetry, thermography, magnetometry, and multi spectral imagine all provide context that professional storytellers (TV producers) crave. Join me as I share stories, successes, and failures of these unique service offerings.
The three building blocks of digital building delivery are BIM, VDC and Digital Twins. There are various definitions for these three things, but based on my experience I define them as follows:- Building Information Modelling: a model with or without 3D geometry that hosts the information about building material, dimensions, connections, forces, power, flow rates, and all other elements required in each element that forms the building. - A key subset of understanding BIM is under...
The First Peoples Innovation Centre (FPIC) plays a significant role in empowering Indigenous communities. The Centre has adapted the FabLab (Fabrication Laboratory) model developed by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) with a culturally appropriate response to Indigenous youth, enabling them to take charge of their professional future. The FPIC, incorporating the FabLab Onaki, is pivotal in this empowerment process, as it funds and partners with various organizations to create co...
