3D Mapping That Doesn't Stink
Let’s face it, 3D mapping can be complicated, expensive, and downright frustrating! In this session, we’ll break down the common challenges that make traditional 3D workflows stink, from steep learning curves to budget-busting hardware. But don’t lose hope. We’ll also showcase a new wave of professional-grade BYOD (bring your own device) scanning tools that are affordable, easy to use, and designed to integrate seamlessly into your existing GIS workflows. Whether you're a seasoned geospatial pro or just getting started with digital twins, you’ll walk away with new insights, practical tools, and a few laughs. Join us to rethink what’s possible with 3D, minus the stink of course.
