Sunday’s keynote, The Bright Future Ahead: Navigating AEC, 3D, and Geospatial Innovation and Change, will be led by Claire Rutkowski, SVP and CIO Champion at Bentley Systems, and include panelists Andrea Springer, VP of Digital Technology & Innovation at Stantec, and Ben Stocker, Construction Technologist at Skender, with more panelists to be announced. The keynote will discuss emerging technologies, including generative AI, large language models, augmented reality, and how digital twins are already impacting day-to-day work in surveying, AEC, and other industries. While some of those technologies are still in their early stages of adoption, keynotes will focus on what’s coming next and what workflows look like in 2030. This visionary panel will share their predictions, cautions, and enthusiasm about what’s next, including a look at today’s workforce and how it can be prepared for the seismic shifts ahead.
Monday’s keynote, Geospatial for Good: How is Geospatial Technology Changing the World? features insights from Este Geraghty, Chief Medical Officer and Health Solutions Director at ESRI, with an additional speaker to be announced. Through the development of technologies and techniques, including lidar, GIS, bathymetry, photogrammetry, AI, and beyond, geospatial knowledge is being applied across disciplines to help address many critical problems. In this keynote, technology thought leaders will share their visions of how geospatial technology is already being used to make a difference in addressing climate change, sustainability issues, disaster response, public health, and social justice, and discuss how the geospatial community can get involved.
“Both of these keynotes will shine a light on the future – from the benefits of geospatial technology to the future of work,” said Carla Lauter, Conference Chair and Editorial Analyst for Geo Week. “With the rapid pace of change across myriad industries, shining a critical spotlight on the road ahead is more important than ever.”
