Utilizing GPS and GIS Applications

February 13

Discover how GNSS, GIS, AI, and integrated solutions are transforming surveying, construction, and resource management for a sustainable future.

Advances in technology, particularly in GNSS, GIS, AI, and integrated hardware-software solutions, are revolutionizing land surveying, construction, and resource management, yielding significant societal benefits. GNSS ensures highly accurate positioning, from sub-meter accuracy for general use to centimeter-level precision for specialized tasks, driving improvements in infrastructure, urban planning, and environmental stewardship. GIS amplifies this potential by integrating spatial data with real-world applications, allowing professionals to analyze geographic relationships, optimize resource allocation, and support emergency response initiatives. Hardware like drones and GNSS receivers accelerate data collection and enhance safety, while modern software provides tools to manage and visualize this data efficiently. Emerging innovations like AI-driven image processing, automated feature recognition, and infrastructure modeling further streamline workflows, reducing manual effort and enabling faster, more informed decision-making. Together, these advancements increase operational efficiency, environmental sustainability, and the quality of life across diverse sectors.

Learning Objectives

  • You will be able to describe the differences between GNSS, GPS and GIS.
  • You will be able to define the key differences between geographic and grid data.
  • You will be able to discuss current industry trends.
  • You will be able to identify opportunities in your business that may benefit from GNSS and GIS solutions.
