Geo Sessions 2025: Geospatial Vision Beyond the Map

Lidar, SAR, and Spectral: Geospatial Innovation on the Horizon

Last year, Geo Sessions brought together over 5,300 registrants from 159 countries, with attendees representing education, government agencies, consulting, and top geospatial companies like Esri, NOAA, Airbus, Planet, and USGS. At this year's Geo Sessions, NV5 is raising the bar with a focus on artificial intelligence, thermal imaging, and hyperspectral capabilities, technologies that are transforming how organizations see, understand, and act on geospatial data.

“Last year’s sessions proved there’s a huge appetite for actionable geospatial knowledge,” said Dan Gruidel, Director, NV5 Geospatial. “This year, we’re taking it further, focusing on technologies like AI, thermal, and hyperspectral that are already reshaping how organizations work.”

Event Details:

• September 16–18, 2025 | 9:00–11:00 AM ET daily
• Virtual and Free to Attend
• Recordings Provided to All Registrants

Each day features a specific geospatial technology:

• Day 1 Lidar: AI and ML in point cloud processing, with guidance from RIEGL and other industry leaders.
• Day 2 SAR: Practical applications for disaster response and infrastructure monitoring, with global perspectives from e-GEOS and USGS.
• Day 3 Spectral: Pushing the envelope with hyperspectral analytics and thermal integration, with case studies from Airbus and other leaders.
