Women are changing the landscape of the land surveying profession and the geospatial fields, but are the odds of success stacked against them?

The purpose, background, and future of land surveying in Colorado and the United States.

Everyone talks about Civil 3D for the engineering community, but what about surveyors? In this webinar we will discuss the many aspects of survey functionality available to surveyors, and how you can automate field surveying. Now, if you’re an engineer reading this, and your about to ignore this webinar, don’t! This webinar will be good for engineers as well so that you are aware of the survey functionality in Civil 3D to better communicate with your surveyors. Come join us and take a peak behind the curtains of survey functionality in Civil 3D.

Find out how to transform virtually any data into KML -- regardless of format or structure -- using FME. You'll see how to easily create and style balloons, customize icons and colours, as well as intelligently organize placemarks -- all using repeatable processes that let you create amazing displays in Google Maps and Earth. Plus discover how to share real-time data by using FME with HTML5 WebSockets.

Surveying with Small UAVs A Paradigm Shift Driven by the rapid evolution of close-range photogrammetry in recent years, small UAVs equipped with regular cameras are rapidly adopted by surveyors worldwide as a key field-to-plan tool for 1:250 scale surveying projects. However, while using small UAVs for surveying is approved in most of the countries in the world, it is still in a legal limbo in the US. This webinar will review the principles of using small UAVs for surveying with regular cameras, introduce multiple real-life case studies of surveying works using small UAVs, and provide practical hands-on best practices for using small UAVs in the field. The webinar will review the legal status of using UAVs in the US, and especially the two recent court cases involving the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and users of UAVs, where the FAA’s policy memorandum on UAVs, particularly in regard to their being used for commercial purposes, was found to be not legally binding.
