ACTIVITÉS COURANTES

CIG Speaker Series at BCIT
Wednesday, Nov. 16, 2011
Location: BCIT Campus in Burnaby:
Theatre Room SW3-1710 @ 15:30 to 16:20

Speaker: Mike Thompson, P.Eng, FEC

Mike Thompson graduated from the University of Calgary in 1988. He worked for several mapping companies before he and Nick Dudley formed Dudley Thompson Mapping Corp. in 2006. Using the latest technologies in hardware and software they are equipped to handle a large range of mapping projects such as;

• Engineering level mapping for Highways and Mine Development.
• Forestry applications including typing, classification, road de-activation, stream rehabilitation.
• Land Development and Planning.
• Independent Power Projects.
• Volumes Calculations (chip piles, gravel pits and land fills)
• Municipal Mapping and GIS data acquisition.

Topic: A Bit of Old and New
Mapping Ancient Roads using Photogrammetry &
the Technology of Mobile Mapping Systems

Mike will present a method to provide evidence of the existence, or non-existence of roads or other cultural data using aerial photography dating back into the 1920’s. With this evidence a surveyor can petition the courts to render a decision on the position of the road and if the road and right of way are in violation of any previous or standing agreements.

He will then delve into the most exciting technology to hit the survey and mapping community since digital Photogrammetry in the late 1980’s. Mobile Mapping Systems (MMS) using vehicle mounted lasers and integrated with GPS and Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) technology. These systems provide an extremely fast and accurate way to record as-built information for mapping and analysis.
