SDB Day 2019
The International Forum on Satellite-Derived Bathymetry 2019
Esteemed speakers and guests from hydrographic offices, marine industry, service providers and research institutes around the world will gather for Australia’s first SDB Day in May 2019.
Satellite Derived Bathymetry (SDB) is a method for providing high-resolution water depth data in shallow water environments. These waters are notoriously difficult and expensive to access. The method combines satellite imagery with advanced algorithms to provide affordable and accurate data, and all within a relatively quick turnaround time.
The forum addresses the urgent need for both users and producers of SDB to jointly discuss capabilities, standards, data integration and handling uncertainties in its application.
About this Event
Everybody talks about UAV LiDAR – the engineer in planning, the forester involved in wood mass calculation, the construction companies taking part in large projects to model it before, during and after its implementation or the utility companies for their corridor mapping and infrastructures management.
Reasons enough for us to continue the Yellowscan Demo tour in Australia, under the motto « Measuring the world with UAV LiDAR ». The scope is to show this high tech tool in a real working environment and how easy it is to generate topographic data with UAV LiDAR.
During our tour you will learn about the latest solutions and use cases from YellowScan and its partners with lectures, workshops and open discussions.
We look forward to meeting you !
YellowScan will be demonstrating two systems:
– YellowScan Surveyor Ultra, the high density & long-range LiDAR solution for UAV. Thanks to its high density (600 000 shots per second), this turn-key fully autonomous system is ideally suited for high speed & long-range projects. Its light weight (1.7 kg battery included) makes it also easy to mount on any drone.
Ideal Use cases: Mining, Archeology, Powerlines.
Applanix APX-15 & Velodyne VLP-32 inside.
– YellowScan Vx-20, the high precision & long-range LiDAR solution for UAV. This system is ideally suited for long range survey needs advanced accuracy (2,5 cm) and precision (1 cm).
Ideal Use Cases: Civil engineering, Forestry
Applanix APX-20 & Riegl miniVUX inside.
LiDAR systems are renowned for under vegetation 3D modeling, and fast data processing.

Organised by OSGeo, this international annual gathering of location enthusiasts is the largest global gathering for geospatial software. Now in its 15th year, FOSS4G (ie. Free and Open Source Software for Geospatial) brings together developers, users, decision-makers and observers from a broad spectrum of organisations and fields of operation.
Through six days of workshops, presentations, discussions, and cooperation, FOSS4G participants create effective and relevant geospatial products, standards, and protocols. The 2021 event will be focused for the first time on South America and will be held with the close collaboration of the GeoLibres Association in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
The 16th annual congress of the Open Source Geospatial Foundation, the non-profit organisation that supports and promotes the collaborative development of free and open source geographic technologies and open geospatial data, will be held in Florence, Italy, at the Palazzo dei Congressi, Palazzo degli Affari and the University of Florence.

It is often challenging for new entrants into the aerial imagery and mapping service profession to determine cost savings when it comes to their processing software solution. Smaller sensors, altitude restrictions, line of sight requirements and overall flight duration create unique challenges for drone operators. Medium and large format sensors acquire much larger areas, but require a much larger investment, or the ability to subcontract out the acquisition. Mapping expenses tend to increase as projects become larger. And using the wrong image processing software can exacerbate this, leading to narrowing project profits. This webinar will show how a higher-end software such as SimActive’s Correlator3D™ can reduce overall project costs. REGISTER HERE.
Specifically, attendees will learn about the following:
- Common challenges and impact on costs
- Cost variations as projects increase in size
- Workflows in Correlator3D to minimize man-hours
- Accelerating timelines with distributed processing
