Eric Andelin (MBA, CP, GISP) is a Transportation Subject Matter Expert and the VP of Strategic Market Development at Pointerra. With over 40 years of experience at the intersection of high-precision geospatial technology and infrastructure engineering, Eric has dedicated his career to bridging the critical gap between raw field data and actionable design intelligence.
As a Certified Photogrammetrist and GIS Professional, Eric specializes in deploying mobile LiDAR, photogrammetry, and 3D digital twins to drastically accelerate transportation design projects. He is a leading voice in modernizing workflows through Advanced Digital Construction Management Systems (ADCMS), helping transit agencies, Class 1 railroads, and engineering firms eliminate the traditional multi-week processing lag. By streamlining reality capture, his work allows project stakeholders to make rapid, data-driven decisions that reduce risk and speed up delivery timelines.
Beyond technical execution, Eric is deeply committed to reinventing safe, equitable, and sustainable mobility for all. An avid cyclist and infrastructure advocate, he actively champions Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) initiatives. By leveraging geospatial intelligence to map high-risk corridors and design proactive safety solutions, Eric helps communities transition to resilient, multimodal networks. At GeoWeek, he shares practical strategies for transforming massive 3D datasets into the foundation for a safer, faster, and more connected transit future.
