Conference focuses on 3D imaging

SPAR 2009, which takes place in Denver, March 30-April 1, 2009, will focus on best practices for using 3D imaging technologies to design and deliver capital projects as well as operate, modify, and maintain production, manufacturing, and infrastructure assets. The conference serves project managers, engineering managers, and survey professionals who depend on timely and reliable field validation of position and dimensional information against design, fabrication, and construction.

Now in its sixth year, SPAR 2009 provides an opportunity to see not only the latest offerings from every major supplier of advanced 3D laser scanning, LIDAR, GPS, and total station hardware and software technologies from across the globe, but also design and data management software and solutions from the world’s leading suppliers. Industry-focused tracks will feature presentations on how new work processes and new technologies are delivering safety, cost, schedule, and productivity improvements to applications as varied as oil and gas production, power generation, urban modeling, fabrication, construction, asset management, geotechnical/mining/tunneling, mobile and dynamic data capture, civil/transportation/building, offshore/marine, forensic, and discrete manufacturing.
