Welcome to the mid - May issue of LiDAR News. Looking ahead on the event calendar, Hexagon 2102 is being held in Las Vegas, June 4-7. I am really looking forward to seeing the progress that has been made with the integration of Intergraph and Leica Geosystems, even if only from a product point of view. No one else has the opportunity that Hexagon does to demonstrate the value of integrated 3D workflows in their target markets.
One of the articles in our first LiDAR Magazine recently won a prestigious Communicator Award for 2012. Congratulations to Kitty Fahey from NOAA for sharing this article with us. Keep the ideas coming!
