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...
Got a great idea, paper, project or product? Here’s an opportunity to hone your skills in making a “fast pitch”. There’s and art to making a fast pitch, where less can be more.The GoGeomatics Expo in 2023 launched the Fast Pitch session. Modelled after the Pitch-the-Press session of GeoWeek, presenters have 3 minutes to make your best case, followed by 2 minutes of questions from a panel and the audience. The panel of geo-journalists and industry experts judge th...
How exactly does artificial intelligence work and what can you use it for in the geomatics domain?

From ancient cave drawings depicting hunting grounds to hand-sketched layouts of backyard gardens, humans conceptualize space through map making. Maps serve both to capture what exists on the landscape and to plan future uses by intentionally defining where specific activities can happen. Modern satellite technology creates geospatial datasets that can contribute to current and proposed land use management planning, all underpinned by the pursuit of the public good.Background

Accurate mapping of road networks is essential for navigation, disaster response, and urban planning. Traditional methods relying on remote sensing images, Lidar data, and GPS trajectories are hampered by time-consuming manual updates and incomplete extraction due to obstructions from trees, buildings, and shadows. However, recent advancements in deep learning models have shown promise in improving road mapping and automating the detection of missing roads.This study uses a transfer le...
The environmental industry has witnessed a significant transformation in recent years, driven by the adoption of advanced positioning technologies. Geomatics positioning tools have emerged as a pivotal component in this paradigm shift, offering unparalleled precision, efficiency, and accuracy in environmental monitoring, management and remediation projects. ProDelta Projects has been an early adopter and developer of these tools including Field DMS, Smart Dig, R20 and through our Minimal dist...

The health of the global ocean environment is of critical importance. Planetary limits for climate change and biodiversity are being reached, and unsustainable resource management practices are rampant. Space-based Maritime Monitoring has proven to provide foundational support for sustainable management of ocean resources. In the Keynote, John will provide a high-level overview of ocean problems, space-based maritime monitoring, the beneficiaries and outcomes of the application of...
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 integration of reality capture technologies—such as LiDAR, photogrammetry, and 3D scanning—into infrastructure asset management is revolutionizing how municipalities and organizations manage and maintain, their assets and deliver services. This presentation will explore the transformative impact of reality capture on the accuracy, efficiency, and overall effectiveness of infrastructure management practices. By enabling effective data collection and visualization, reality capture provides ...
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.
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.
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...
Photogrammetry is not just limited to aerial platforms. Modern mobile devices contain high-quality cameras and increasingly have LiDAR and depth sensors built in. When combined with high-accuracy GNSS systems, these mobile devices can quickly collect accurate data for utilities, infrastructure, inspection, as-builts, construction, and more. Utilizing these readily available devices can reduce project delays, capture better documentation of utilities, and lay the foundations for digital infras...

With drones like the DJI Matrice 300 now being positioned using RTK GNSS, combined with Structure from Motion (SfM), high precision mosaics are possible without deploying targets. The ability to mount lidars (DJI L1 and L2) and other optical sensors (RGB, multispectral, thermal) allows for precise surveying and the production of high resolution and high accuracy mosaics with minimal ground control. While battery power still remains an issue and the limiting factor for flight duration (10’s of...
As the drone industry is increasingly focuses on developing larger airframes and equipping them with bigger sensors, Spexi is taking a revolutionary approach to aerial imagery. At Spexi, we believe that the future of geospatial data collection lies not in size and complexity, but in numbers and standardization. The Spexi platform leverages the power of crowdsourcing, deploying local pilots with small drones to capture standardized imagery across entire cities. This method allows us to achieve...
