Please join us for the last Spring 2010 Colloquium of the Geospatial Information Society (GIS) Student Club!

We will be having an exciting presentation this Friday (5/28)!

Jacob McDonald, a physical scientist at the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, will present "Applying Digital Terrain Modeling to Water Resource Engineering."  Mr. McDonald will be discussing projects that he has been involved with, including:
  • Comparing and contrasting applications of LiDAR and photogrammetry for various terrain types
  • Tracking river sediment movement with LiDAR
  • Topographic and bathymetric data integration for hydraulic modeling
  • Lidargrammetry (LiDAR-photogrammetry hybrid) and hydro-flattening/ hydro-enforcement
  • The future of bathymetric LiDAR and terrestrial laser scanning
Date: Friday, May 28th, 2010
Time: 3-4pm
Location: Cramer Hall, Room 413

This event is free and all are welcome!

Refreshments will be provided!
