Survey Ireland 2018

Survey Ireland 2018 is scheduled for the 30th May in Dunboyne Castle - the first time at this venue I think. The schedule is not finalised yet but will cross over with 'smart cities' and the enabling survey tech. I hope to present some of our work on satellite mapping of construction in Dublin port at it.

Conference of Irish Geographers 2018 - Earth Observation Session

The call for abstracts for the EO session at CIG2018 has gone out - details here. Should be an excellent session and I'm looking forward to seeing friends from Maynooth again. This is the 50th event in the series and will run from Thursday 10th of May to Saturday 12th of May 2018.

Potree Dublin

I refuse to let February go by without posting on the blog but I have never been this busy in all my life. Added to that I have a new gmail log-on for DIT so I can't edit the blog from that! Plus I have to admit that twitter is getting more of my attention these days as you can see from the side panel - its an easy way to pass a train journey and sharing content is much easier than here.

Thanks to Daire letting me know this is working - I tried to show the students a few weeks back but it was down. Potree back in my feed again . You might remember some of my previous posts on this online point cloud viewer - they had a complete RGB pointcloud of Denmark, plus forestry walk thourhgs. Well now they have updated it to include a LiDAR model of Dublin (looks like the UCD one).

Really impressive - no RGB data that I can see but you can colour by intensity, elevation - take measurements.
