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...
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 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...
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 ...
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...

This presentation details the results of a field study conducted in July in Santa Cruz, California, where thirteen participants employed terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) to assess concrete tolerance on a construction site. The study aimed to establish the precision of TLS as a test method for verifying concrete tolerance in accordance with ASTM E-691-23. Additionally, it sought to quantify the bias of the TLS method by compar...
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...
This presentation provides a comprehensive exploration of the latest advancements in construction technology. From traditional methods to cutting-edge innovations, we'll examine how technology is reshaping the construction industry.Key topics will include:Historical Context: A brief overview of the evolution of construction techniques and the impact of technological advancements.Modern Construction Methods: Exploring traditional methods and how they've been enhance...
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...
In this year's reality capture track, we have shown you the unprecedented value of reality capture systems when adopted into high-cost, high liability and fast pace environments, some of the problems these systems are solving today, and tools to help the effectiveness and quality of those solutions. However, our presenters will also have demonstrated how critical digital lifecycle planning can be to any asset, from pre-design through construction and lifetime operation right up to demolition,...
The time has come for the presentation of this year's mobile mapping system and SLAM system participants.Are you looking to collect more data, faster and accurately? Looking to buy a mobile mobile mapping or SLAM system and incorporate it into your workflows? If you are, you're considering tens of thousands to millions of dollars of investment. Do you know what's available to you? Are you sure that's all of them? Do the options available suit your needs? Is there candid data you can lo...
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...
