The twenty ninth INTERGEO convention and commerce present on geospatial know-how and knowledge was held from October 10 to 12 within the German capital Berlin. This 12 months’s occasion came about beneath the well-known radio tower and within the model new Hub27 convention heart, a part of the 42-acre Messe Berlin exhibit and convention heart. The annual occasion takes place every year in a unique German metropolis.
Over the three days, 560 distributors from greater than 40 nations exhibited their merchandise, whereas folks from throughout the globe attended shows and vendor reveals on geodesy, geoinformation and land administration. Subjects lined included Earth statement and environmental monitoring, maritime options, unmanned methods, constructing info modeling (BIM), GIS and synthetic intelligence, metaverse and cloud purposes, sensible cities, digital twins, COPERNICUS and Galileo satellite tv for pc providers, 4D geodata, 3D cadaster, and sensible mapping purposes. The main target was on how these applied sciences and knowledge are used to deal with problems with housing, mobility, sustainability, local weather change and inner safety, monitoring for catastrophe prevention and safety, and the creation of extra equitable residing situations.
Along side the convention, the German Cartography Congress 2023 additionally convened, with lectures on such subjects as atlases, map collections, map design, and synthetic intelligence. In her keynote handle, Professor Monika Sester mentioned how machine studying strategies assist with generalization and Professor Sebastian Meier gave a provocative lecture titled “Important Cartography in Occasions of Hallucinating Machines.”
Day 1, Tuesday, October 10
On the primary day of INTERGEO 2023, keynote audio system included Jack Dangermond, founder and CEO of ESRI, professor Paul Becker, president of the Federal Company for Cartography and Geodesy, Scott Crozier from Trimble and professor Rudolf Staiger, president of the organiser DVW e.V. The principle theme was the centrality of geospatial science and know-how to sustainability as a result of the idea of socially, ecologically and economically sustainable choices lies within the understanding of the Earth system. That is more and more obtain utilizing geoinformation gathered by means of Earth statement and plenty of different sensors.
GPS World performed brief interviews with Gustavo Lopez, market entry supervisor at Septentrio and Deyn Deng, abroad gross sales supervisor at Unicore.


Some surveying provides which have been used for hundreds of years are nonetheless in use right this moment.
Day 2, Wednesday, October 11
On the second day of INTERGEO 2023, the main target of the keynote shows, like that of lots of the merchandise within the exhibit corridor, was “sensible cities” and constructing info modeling (BIM), together with a panel dialogue on the significance of BIM in Germany. Associated themes mentioned within the shows, on the exhibit corridor phases, and at distributors’ cubicles included related city twins, sensor knowledge, real-time purposes, city twins as drivers of innovation for native governments, maritime options, Earth statement, and unmanned methods.
At a press convention on navigating sustainability by means of geospatial insights the contributors have been Rudolf Staiger, president of DVW, Boris Skopljak, Vice President survey & mapping technique and product advertising and marketing at Trimble, Thomas Harring, president Geosystems at Hexagon, Gerd Buziek, Enterprise Relations Govt at Esri Deutschland and Godela Roßner, head of Earth statement at Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt (DLR).
GPS World performed brief interviews with Andrew Scott, Head of Advertising & Gross sales at JAVAD GNSS; Jamie Birch, product supervisor at OxTS; Mandy Clayton, Southeast Regional gross sales mganager at GeoMax (a part of Hexagon); Florian Ollier, head of selling & communications at SBG Programs; Andrei Gorb, division product supervisor, Mapping Options at CHCNAV; Rachel Wong, Survey & Engineering Product Line, product supervisor at CHCNAV; Marcel Visser, CEO of NavCert; Ken MacLeod, product line supervisor and Bruce Shields methods group director at Tallysman; and Morgane Selve, head of selling at Yellowscan.
Visser advised GPS World that his firm had obtained from the German federal authorities sole duty to certify UAVs in Germany for business operations, together with flights past visible line of sight (BVLOS).
