SPAR Europe & European LiDAR Mapping Forum 2014 Break Attendance Records
Portland, Maine (PRWEB) December 22, 2014 -- SPAR Europe and European LiDAR Mapping Forum took place 8-10 December 2014 at the Passenger Terminal Amsterdam. With 621 verified attendees, a 15% increase over the 2013 edition, the events were the largest in their five-year history and marked by full and lively conference sessions and a busy exhibit hall.
“We heard nothing but positive comments from attendees and exhibitors,” said Lisa Murray, Event Director. “Attendees praised the conference content, our expert presenters, the networking opportunities and the opportunity to see the latest technologies and tools available for data capture, processing and delivery/visualization. The more than 40 exhibitors commented on the excellent quality and quantity of attendees who represented leading organizations from throughout Europe and beyond.”
Jacob Stroet of Hansa Luftbild (Germany) said he especially enjoyed that the events “brought together the newest technologies, scientists, vendors, service providers, users and customers” in one place. Martin Laging of Keopsys (France) called the exhibition “very focused with the right mix of products and services from small/medium/large enterprises.”
The nearly 90 presentations in the two-and-a-half-day, five-track conference program touched on advances in 3D technologies, including new options for capture, processing, visualization and deliverables as well as new developments on the horizon. SPAR Point Group editor Sean Higgins wrote about the top 7 conference takeaways in his 18 December blog post including as-maintained models as the new ideal and UAVs expanding the LiDAR industry.
Organizers are exploring venue options for 2015 and will announce exact dates in January.
