In an increasingly connected, data-driven world, the fusion of precision measurement and intelligent systems is redefining how we design, build, and manage our physical environments. In this keynote, Burkhard Boeckem, Hexagon Chief Technology Officer, will explore how geospatial intelligence, powered by precision data and amplified by AI, is driving innovation across infrastructure, construction, urban planning, and environmental monitoring.
Attendees will learn how cutting-edge technologies that leverage autonomous reality capture, robotics, sensor fusion, and intelligent edge computing are creating dynamic digital ecosystems where the physical and digital seamlessly inform each other in real time. Precision mapping at any scale, autonomous workflows, and digital twins powered by spatial intelligence – this session will highlight transformative capabilities that are no longer aspirational, they are operational. For engineers, surveyors, city planners, and innovators, this strategic glimpse into the future highlights how geospatial precision and intelligence will pave the way.
Stay tuned for details on this year’s opening keynote — an inspiring session that will set the stage for Geo Week’s exploration of innovation, collaboration, and the future of geospatial technology.
In the early morning hours of March 26, 2024 the MV Dali, a 984-foot container ship bound for Sri Lanka, experienced a sudden loss of power while navigating outbound along the Patapsco River from the Port of Baltimore. The ship struck a main truss of the Francis Scott Key Bridge, causing the immediate collapse of approximately half a mile of the bridge structure. The Port of Baltimore, one of the nation’s largest ports, generates over $2.6 billion in annual business revenue and has only one deep-draft channel providing access to its facilities.
This keynote presentation will discuss the heroic rescue and recovery operations through the eyes of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and the Army Geospatial Center. We’ll explore how numerous teams mobilized quickly, leveraging a vast array of geospatial data inputs and advanced analytics to create a groundbreaking common operating picture. This enabled unparalleled collaboration across federal, state, and local levels to address a disaster of this magnitude.
The Past, Present and Future of the 3D Elevation Program
Tuesday, February 8, 2022 – 9:00 AM – 10:45 AM
The goal of 3DEP is to complete acquisition of nationwide lidar (IfSAR in AK) to provide the first-ever national baseline of consistent high-resolution topographic elevation data – as both bare earth DEMs and 3D point clouds. With 3DEP-quality data available or in progress for about 84 percent of the Nation as of the end of Fiscal Year 2021, we are looking towards our future vision for topographic mapping and science at the USGS. USGS is developing something called the 3D National Topography Model (3DNTM)- the terrestrial component of the 3D Nation vision that we share with NOAA. The 3DNTM includes developments of the next generation of the 3D Elevation Program and National Hydrography Datasets including inland bathymetry, hydrography derived from lidar, and connections to groundwater and engineered hydrologic systems.
