This session will highlight the latest breakthroughs in how we capture, process, and visualize the built world—from field data collection to high-fidelity digital twins.
Session 1 – 4:30 PM – 5:00 PM
Leveraging Reality Capture Workflows Across Diverse Transportation Projects
Presented by Scott Graham, ETM Surveying & Mapping, Inc.
Learn how modern workflows combining terrestrial, UAV, mobile, and wearable lidar with SLAM mapping are improving efficiency and accuracy in transportation design and assessment. Through three Florida-based projects—from highway design in Edgewater to post-hurricane roadway surveys and bypass documentation in Immokalee—this session illustrates how reality capture supports both rapid emergency response and long-term infrastructure planning.
Session 2 – 5:00 PM – 5:30 PM
Elevating Digital Twins: High-Fidelity Reality Capture with Gaussian Splatting and Enhanced Photogrammetry
Presented by Pierangelo Rothenbüehler, Pix4D
Discover how Gaussian Splatting and advanced photogrammetry are redefining 3D visualization and digital twin creation. This session demonstrates how these innovations enhance point-cloud density, preserve geodetic accuracy, and enable seamless sharing through cloud-based platforms—paving the way for more realistic, interactive, and collaborative digital twins across industries.
Together, these sessions showcase how innovation in capture and visualization is advancing precision, collaboration, and decision-making across today’s infrastructure landscape.
