The Professional Showcase is an opportunity for our graduating students to present their Capstone projects in front of the geospatial community at NC State and beyond. This includes student peers, alumni, faculty and staff from across the university, and our community and industry partners. This is a tremendous professional development and networking opportunity for our…
ArcGIS Enterprise is a foundational software system for powerful mapping, analytics, and data management. Deploying ArcGIS Enterprise in the cloud combines the capabilities of GIS with the computing power and flexibility of cloud deployments. This forum presentation will provide an overview of ArcGIS Enterprise and the software components necessary to configure a base deployment. We…
In heavily forested environments, the digital deletion of vegetation through lidar remote sensing and the generation of bare-earth digital elevation models has enhanced our abilities to observe and quantify geologic hazards. In this forum Dr. Wegmann will present examples from studies in Washington, Colorado, and North Carolina where lidar datasets allow for improved identification and…
Presented by Jeff Essic, Data & Visualization Librarian | NC State University ArcGIS Desktop, Pro and Online provide a lot of out-of-the-box functionality, but did you know that there's also a lot more you have access to through various installs and add-ons? This Studio will look at some of the additional products provided through NC…
As extreme climatic events such as droughts are becoming more frequent and demands for water are increasing world-wide, it is projected that as many as 3.5 billion people could experience water scarcity by 2025. In Australia, changes in climate and land use as well as multi-year droughts, such as the Millennium Drought that ended in…

A first important step towards better usability of available disease surveillance databases in developing countries, such as Brazil, is developing easier to interpret risk-based priority indices using small area scale health data. Additionally, there is a need to reclassify and downscale multi-resolution state-level geospatial data to better serve policymakers at the municipality level. This Forum…
In this forum, Camilla Mahon with Mapbox will discuss the evolving landscape of hardware and software tooling in the remote sensing industry with emphasis on common open source software solutions for wrangling pixels, the implications of cloud computing and importance of scale, the variety of satellites, planes, and UAVs being used for data collection, and…
