Towards the new normal in surveying and engineering

Russell Bollig and John Welter from Hexagon Geosystems recently sat down with GIM International to discuss the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on the geospatial industry. The conversation focused on hot topics such as the role of AI in speeding up data analysis and decision-making for 3D laser scanning and aerial mapping, and also shed light on the rapid advancements in scanning and modelling services. Further, Bollig and Welter noted how improvements in computer vision have revolutionized imagery analysis and extraction. The insights emphasize the growing importance of AI and machine learning in geospatial applications, and their potential to revolutionize operational approaches in the construction and infrastructure sectors.
