LIDAR logic, spatial data research & modeling, GPS & GIS systems are all part of a wide-ranging pair of discussions scheduled for next week at Santa Fe Complex. They will be led by Keith Cunningham, a Lawrence, KS-based researcher & consultant who specializes in these topics.
Keith has a Ph.D. in geography from the University of Kansas where he did his dissertation on Artificial Neural Networks and the Extraction of Spatial Information from Raster Imagery. His current research is with large 3D data sets collected from airborne LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) laser scanners. He also does spatial data research to help businesses monitor and plan their GIS systems, and works in the overall area of mapping, geographic analysis and pattern recognition in data visualization and dignal processing. Keith worked extensively in New Mexico during the 1990s and early 2000s through his firm, Spatial Data Research. SDR developed the GIS system used in the 911 dispatch centers across the state. Keith can discuss the details of this significant project that affects the health and safety of everyone in New Mexico. Keith will join us for the Wedtech session at 12:30 on Wednesday the 16th and an evening blender that night. Lunch will available for a $5.00 contribution. The blender will begin at 6:30 in the commons at 632 Agua Fria. --- Don Begley Managing Director Santa Fe Complex 624 Agua Fria Santa Fe, NM 87501 www.santafecomplex.org 505-216-7562 505.670.9432 (cell) ============================================================ FRIAM Applied Complexity Group listserv Meets Fridays 9a-11:30 at cafe at St. John's College lectures, archives, unsubscribe, maps at http://www.friam.org
