integration of gis, mobile solutions and satellite
imagery
February 18, 2004
8:00 am - 3:30 pm
Ramada Plaza Conference Resort
10251 St. Edwards Drive
Richmond, B.C.
Thank you to all of you who attended the Integration of
GIS, Mobile Solutions and Satellite Imagery event. We had a great turnout
to this event. We appreciate your support in our endeavours to promote
GIS knowledge through this type of seminar.
This seminar had two presentation series, Urban and Satellite. The Urban
Series focused on the identification, assessment and management of municipal
assets, integration of GIS with water network modeling, integrating CADD
and GIS, mobile infrastructure maintenance and utilizing GIS to its highest
potential over the Internet.
As part of the Satellite Series, the application of satellite Imagery
for detection of impervious and pervious areas, as well as change detection
for new development was explored. Particpants also learnt about the current
state of satellite imagery and how the RCMP Air Squad will be using GIS
data in their Police helicopters.
By the resounding feedback we have received so far this
event was successful in its purpose. We hope you gained some useful insight
into what other users are doing with GIS, Remote Sensing and Mobile Technologies
and that you derived some value from attending, which you can in turn
utilize in your workplace.
Thank you also to our Presenters and Sponsors. Events like this are successful
because of all of you. We hope this event was as beneficial to you as
it was to the attendants. Our Sponsor Logos, which have links to their
website, will be left up on our site for the next two weeks. Please utilize
these links to find out more about our sponsors for this event.
The presentations from the event have been added to this page for your
future reference.
We look forward to seeing you at our future events.
