  1. Helping to solve global challenges Chris Gibson Sector Vice President

  2. Geospatial information helps us rise to some of humanity’s biggest challenges • Feeding a growing population • Securing land tenure for the majority • Meeting global demands for natural resources – energy, water, power, materials • Enhancing public safety & security • Improving warnings of, and recovery from, natural disasters

  3. Impact of technology changes Sensors Sensor Integration Real Time Big Data Cloud Computing 3D Models Software Intelligence Processing Power Data Storage Connectivity Visualization & Interaction

  4. Positioning technologies, connectivity and analytics are converging

  5. Geospatial evolution Analyse & Decision Support Model • Virtual Reality • Field Inspection • Point cloud • Visualization • Project Management • Data modeling • Process modeling • Work Management • Environmental • Cost analysis • Time analysis • Visual Detection • Deformation detection • Event tracking • Yield management • Fleet analytics Process Collect • GNSS & Optical • Scanning • Imaging • Total Station • UAV • GNSS • Machine • Scanning

  6. At the heart of the enterprise • CITIZENS & CONSUMERS • – GIS Data Users • Smart Phones • MOBILE FIELD CREWS & FLEETS • -Data Collection / Validation • Work & Incident Management • Asset Management • Fleet tracking & Routing DBs Enterprise Application GIS Server CONTRACTORS – Intelligent Machines

  7. Changing Roles Analysis, Modeling & Applications Measurement & Data Collection Interpretation & Quality Control Historical Roles Emerging Roles Instrumental precision Meticulous observation & calculation Accuracy, Credibility, Reliability Establishing geospatial context Managing quality, integrity, complexity Big data management Providing answers, solving problems Accuracy, Credibility, Reliability,

  8. Asset Monitoring Planning and Mapping Prescription and Yield Analysis Topographic Management Productivity Recommendation Financial Management Machine and Worker Optimization transformingAGRICULTURE – PLANNING, GROWING AND HARVESTING • Enabling more informed decision making, leading to: • Higher machine utilization • Lower seed, fuel and chemical costs • Improved yield and profitability • Reduced environmental impact Savings for the Grower: 25-30% Annual Economic Benefits of Precision Agriculture to U.S. Crop Farming Pham et. al. 2011, The Economic Benefits of Commercial GPS Use

  10. GUIDANCE: Maximize the precision of your rows or inter row cultivation, and reduce skips and overlaps reducing time/labour and fuel . TERRACES: Design, install and maintain terraces to slow down the movement of surface water preventing soil erosion. PLANT SENSOR: Automatically sense the presence of living plants, and targeted herbicide application and savings of up to 90% in herbicide costs. Land Preparation

  11. AUTOMATED MACHINE GUIDANCE: Install drip tape precisely so beds can be pulled accurately above water source without damaging tape. MARK OUT: Accurate mark out the optimum centre point for your pivot. WATERSHED ANALYSIS: Analyze the field’s watershed, tributary and flow data in 3D to enable informed water management decisions. MACHINE CONTROL SOLUTIONS: Wide selection of machine control solutions for leveling of fields to provide optimal distribution of rain or irrigation water. LEVEES: Design and install levees on the contour for perfectly irrigating fields. Irrigation

  12. AUTOMATED MACHINE GUIDANCE: Utilize automated machine guidance for consistent and adequate topographic data collection. WATERSHED ANALYSIS: Analyze the field’s watershed, tributary and flow data in 3D to enable informed water management decisions. SUB-SURFACE DRAINAGE SOLUTION: Complete solution for sub-surface drainage ensuring 3D drain placement for optimal water table control. SURFACE DRAINAGE SOLUTION: Complete solution for surface drainage ensuring 3D drain placement for optimal water table control. Drainage

  13. Modern Land Administration Framework • Source: Land Administration for Sustainable Development, Williamson, Enemark, Wallace & Rajabifard.

  14. Unregistered land & urbanisation– two related global problems • The reality today is far from the ideal model • Of the world’s ~6 billion land parcels, 70-75% are not formally registered • In many countries: 20% formal registration, 80% informal is typical. • Initiatives in 50 countries Sources: United Nations, World Bank, others

  15. Unregistered Land & Urbanisation– Two Related Global Problems The population of cities in developing countries will double from 2 billion to 4 billion between 2006 and 2036. To prevent people from living in informal settlements, developing nations must create the equivalent of a city housing 1 million people…. ....every week ...between 2006 and 2036 (already 7 years ago) (United Nations Habitat, 2006)
