We went to Geo Week to see what all the way forward for PNT tech appears like!
What’s up, geo nerds?
We received to spend a while at GeoWeek in Denver just lately, the go-to place for all issues geospatial! We noticed so many cool issues and met so many inspiring individuals all geeking out collectively over what’s up and coming with precision, navigation and timing tech. This is a spherical up of what our time at GeoWeek regarded like!
Disclaimer: these photographs are all unaligned and appear like they had been taken on a potato, our deepest apologies. We had been simply so distracted by the spectacle that’s GeoWeek!
The Geospatial Inclusion Crucial
We received to attend a panel discussing the need for numerous voices and experiences main the geospatial business, and the way to make sure fairness for all in the way forward for the business.
Get Youngsters Into Survey
They create posters and comics round several types of {hardware} and ideas necessary to surveying and work within the geospatial business.
Superior Navigation
Superior Navigation is a world chief in AI navigation and robotics. We talked to them and received to study all about their underwater drones (pictured) that make the most of neural networks and acoustic navigation for subsurface navigation.
Reigl
There have been tons of drones on show, and Reigl had a number of the coolest trying ones. They’re a world chief in cutting-edge tech in airborne, cell, terrestrial, industrial and unmanned laser scanning for surveying functions.
Screening Eagle
We spoke to the oldsters at Screening Eagle about their floor penetrating radar, full with an interactive interface to allow you to see what your gadget is seeing proper by way of concrete. They even had a rig that hooked up to a truck so you might take it safely on the roads.
Mach9
Over at Mach9, we realized about their software program that takes LiDAR knowledge converts it into actionable 2D or 3D maps virtually instantaneously. Their maps regarded nice caught our eye from throughout the room.
AmericaView
AmericaView advances Earth statement schooling by way of distant sensing science, utilized analysis, workforce improvement, expertise switch, and neighborhood outreach. They’d some nice goodies at their desk, together with a kids’s guide I grabbed for my niece a few child bat studying to map its approach by way of the world!
They even had a big puzzle of the 4 corners states we received to place collectively!
DJI Enterprise
If you understand something about drones, you understand about DJI. They’ve all kinds of drones, from ones that may race, to ones for hobbyists and even surveying or photogrammetry professionals. Their sales space was displaying off a few of their newer Mavic fashions, in addition to a drone docking station.
Unhealthy Elf
We made some mates over at Unhealthy Elf’s sales space, speaking all about handheld surveyors and how much expertise they’re enthusiastic about within the geospatial house. They create surveyors which can be appropriate with sure telephone apps.
That was GeoWeek! That is solely a slice of what we noticed whereas we had been there, it was inspiring to see all of the cutting-edge expertise that’s popping out of the business. Til subsequent yr!
