Webinar | Geomatics: The Key to Smarter, Safer & More Efficient Digital Transformation in Engineering Projects
Register by April 23, 2025
Geomatics engineering is transforming engineering projects by bridging the gap between physical reality and digital innovation. Through advanced reality capture technologies such as mobile mapping, UAVs, LiDAR, 3D scanning, and conventional surveying, geomatics engineers create highly accurate digital twins that serve as the foundation for projects in energy, transportation, infrastructure, power delivery, rail, and more.
This session will explore how geomatics integrates cutting-edge hardware, software, and AI-powered workflows to transform massive datasets into actionable, high-value information—keeping your data and project in one place. We’ll also discuss why a strong, well-managed control network is essential for maintaining data integrity and project success. By ensuring engineering-grade quality, geomatics empowers all engineering disciplines to achieve smarter, safer, and more efficient project outcomes.
Join us to discover how geomatics is driving digital transformation and enabling innovation, data quality, and project efficiency across the engineering landscape.
Brought to you by the Edmonton Branch. Everyone is welcome to attend.
