Lidar Meeting Ends on a High

"Our goal as we stated in the welcome was to bring continuing awareness of the convergence of imaging and three-dimensional measurement technologies," says Brent Gelhar, VP of Sales and Strategy. "The speakers, especially the keynotes, enthusiastically emphasized this convergence. There was a definite swell in idea exchange and new concept development, further accelerated by the interaction between all the attending specialists. All in all, the conference goals were met and exceeded, especially in light of the excellent turnout: a total of 200 attendees from 23 countries."

In addition to the conference exchanges, new technology rollouts were made for the new ground-breaking Aquarius bathymetry extension to Optech's tried and tested ALTM Gemini line, a new higher performance waveform digitiser, and numerous data processing software enhancements for the Lynx Mobile Mapper and the ILRIS Terrestrial Laser Scanner family.
