I got two of my three proposals approved for workshops...
EDM Calibration and Geometric Reduction of Distances
Using a Relational Database to Store Survey Observations and Results
The one that was not approved was titled "ITRF, WGS83, and NAD83". I think this is really needed to clarify some misconceptions that I hear from clients and other surveyors. And with the upcoming new datums....
I'm going, and this year I'm presenting as well. My presentation is called "Using Trimble Access Pipelines to Improve Accuracy and Efficiency in Pipeline Construction Surveying". Probably only of interest to pipeline surveyors but feel free to come heckle me.
@john-hamilton Sounds interesting I'll try to attend if there are no conflicts.
The drinks don't flow at Dimensions like they did in 2010; you don't see open tabs in the bars any longer unless you happen to be in a small group (like with your dealer rep). Which is fine I'm getting too old for that stuff anyhow. In 2018 there were sponsored events pretty much every night.

Back in the day there was a (former) senior executive on the geospatial side of the house who use to overindulge at conferences to the point of, let's say, exposing?ÿ the company to undue liability.?ÿ ?ÿ
This could have opened some eyes as to what was going on at events.?ÿ ?ÿ
@james-fleming When I first started going out there, probably around 2004, I'm pretty sure there were probably some expense accounts being hit with five figure bar tabs.
