Course Information
Learn how to leverage existing site conditions data and aerial location intelligence to create a synchronized, single source of ground truth within your GIS, design, and construction- management platforms.
We’ll discuss real-world project scenarios and provide step-by-step technical instruction on how to effectively implement geospatial -AI into your existing project workflows, ultimately improving project outcomes for all stakeholders.
Use cases will include how to use automated feature identification and extraction in GIS applications to better inform early-stage site analysis as well as how to synchronize such data in design environments to maintain data continuity for more accurate preliminary designs.
This presentation will focus on practical, technical instruction for civil engineers, design professionals, and project managers looking to improve the accuracy and efficiency of their projects by leveraging consistent data across mapping and design workflows.
Learning Objectives
Learn how to integrate high-resolution aerial imagery and automated feature identification into GIS and design platforms to create a unified source of site data.
