Back as an in-person/hybrid event, this global showcase for geomatics hardware, software, and solutions revealed some interesting trends. The annual Intergeo exhibition is massive, and the recent event in Essen Germany October 18-20, was nearly […]
The finalists for the 2022 awards have been announced, and we’d like to highlight a few… The finalists have been announced for the annual Year in Infrastructure – Going Digital Awards. Selecting from global nominations […]
A “metaverse” holds so much potential beyond just social media and marketing platforms. Substantive uses for infrastructure design, construction, and management get little mention. The geomatics, geospatial, and AEC communities need to change the narrative. […]
This innovative prism pole, the first of its kind with tilt compensation, auto-height, and target identification, does not disappoint. Spoiler: it worked very well. Leica Geosystems (part of Hexagon) announced the AP20 AutoPole in March […]
Data capture is getting easier and faster, but the subsequent step of CAD linework generation is a bottleneck, and even more so with the present shortage of qualified drafters. AI is stepping in to help. […]
Traditional pathways for creating, using, and sharing modeled 3D reality data presents challenges to broader adoption. Montreal-based Prevu3D provides a unique solution to remove those barriers. Reality capture has become easier and less expensive than […]
Geographer Simon Kuestenmacher is a researcher, writer, and presenter on matters of demographics, economics, and curator of fascinating maps… There are some well-known, and much followed geo-personalities; like Dr. @josephkerski, who writes and teaches about […]
An innovative prism pole, the first of its kind, addresses three troublesome sources of error for robotic total station operation. Leica Geosystems (part of Hexagon) has just announced the TP20 AutoPole, a very smart new […]
