Having just turned 60 years-old, I hit one of the major benchmarks in life. When I was younger, I can remember thinking 30 was as old as you could ever get. Time changes the way we think about things. I started my business in 1988 and still enjoy running our firm 25 years later. I […]
3D laser scanning is back in the headlines – this time in Louisville, Kentucky – showing further proof that this innovative technology is quickly becoming the new industry standard for construction projects across the country. Just last week, work on the $2.6 billion Ohio River Bridges project in Louisville began and 3D laser scanning technology […]
Once again, the annual SPAR International Conference, which was held at the Broadmoor in Colorado Springs this year, was an absolute “must see” event for anyone in the laser scanning, lidar or photogrammetric mapping industries. From collecting data through alternative means like “crowdsourcing” to new programs that stream point cloud data into design files, SPAR […]

This was our first time exhibiting at Autodesk University, but having been to three conferences in Las Vegas in one year, I was […]
As 2012 winds down and we get ready to head to Las Vegas for the Autodesk University conference, I look back at the strides that have been made in the 3D world and all of the associated hardware and software in our industry. Not only is there new technology being used and accepted, but the […]
As I stand back and look at where 3D laser scanning has led us as a company, I am both pleased and confident that the world of 3D virtual design and engineering is healthy and growing fast. I recently met some truly amazing people from all over America and Europe who are doing some very […]
Sometimes I don’t have to look past the front page of the local newspaper to see a good example of laser scanning in action. Tragically, there was a police-involved shooting in Cobb County, Georgia, this past weekend, as reported by the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
