The geospatial industry continued to evolve rapidly in 2024, driven by technological advancements and the increasing need for accurate and efficient spatial data. From artificial intelligence (AI) to innovations in reality capture solutions and satellite […]
Subsurface utility engineering (SUE) is a field where precision is critical – missteps can lead to costly delays, safety hazards, and even infrastructure failures. Yet, historically, the underground world has been poorly documented, with incomplete […]
Mount Royal University (MRU) now offers post-bachelor’s certificate for Spatial Data Science. A professor from MRU’s Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences underlines the significance of introducing an innovative program that responds to students’ increased […]
What an incredible time to be a mapping professional! Infrastructure the world over continues to change for the better (and worst,) real-world projects are happening everywhere despite our economy being intentionally stagnated, geographic areas continue […]
Artificial Intelligence is complex, but understanding it is relatively simple. -Peter Srager Feed it data, give it a goal, and let it fail and fail until it figures out how to complete the task at […]
Developers of solutions for geospatial applications have integrated elements of AI for decades. The latest, more powerful (and popularized) wave of AI makes it more difficult to determine an optimal mix. We asked industry thought […]
The Geomatics for the Public Good program at the National Expo highlights how geomatics technology is being harnessed across federal, provincial, and municipal levels to enhance public services and improve citizens’ quality of life. Human […]
Subsurface Utility Engineering Advances: building on the interest and engagement from the successful 2023 expo, the 2024 National Canadian Geomatics Expo will feature an expanded track dedicated to Subsurface Utilities Engineering (SUE). This program encompasses […]
