DARWin SP Data Acquisition software adds first and second
derivatives capabilities — DARWin SP Data Acquisition
software is included with every
SPECTRAL EVOLUTION
spectrometer and spectroradiometer. The software controls the
instruments and provides additional capabilities via pull down
menus. Now, DARWin SP Data Acquisition software offers first
and second derivatives calculations.
Derivatives are typically used as signal pre-treatments
applied to spectra data. They help to resolve peak overlap,
enhance resolution of spectral features and eliminate noise &
spectral drift between samples. DARWin SP features one-touch
operation and easy, intuitive menus for fast, effortless operation.
In addition to derivatives, DARWin SP also offers easy access
to 19 vegetation indices, mineral reflectance, solar simulation,
colorimetry, and energy measurement.

International LidarMapping ForumAnnounces 2020 Conference
Program—The
)
has released its 2020 conference program featuring a robust and
diverse lineup of keynote presentations, case studies, and panel
discussions lead by industry experts. This year marks the 20th
anniversary of ILMF, the premier event for surveying and map-
ping technologies including airborne, mobile, and bathymetric
lidar as well as other remote sensing technologies.
The 2020 conference, the first to take place inWashington, DC,
will feature heavy representation fromgovernment organizations
that employ surveying and mapping technologies. These presen-
tations will explore topics such as national mapping programs,
statewide projects, updates from the U.S. Geological Survey
(USGS), and the 3D Elevation Program (3DEP). The program
will also cover a wide array of specific areas of application such as
topo-bathy mapping, forestry, indoor mapping, and much more.
The 20th edition of International Lidar Mapping Forum
(ILMF), produced by Diversified Communications, will be held
from March 23-25 at the Walter E. Washington Convention
Center in Washington, DC. It will take place together with
the
Annual Conference and the MAPPS Federal
Programs Conference, as part of Geo Week. The conference is
critical to anyone who needs to stay on top of the latest tech-
nology and developments in the rapidly changing geospatial
technology market.
Registration for 2020 International Lidar Mapping Forum
is now open.
URISA
and the International Association of Assessing
Officers (IAAO) are pleased to announce the program details
for the 2020 GIS/Valuation Technologies Conference in
Louisville, Kentucky, March 23-26. Formerly known as GIS/
CAMA, the event has been re-branded to take into account the
abundance of technologies that, when integrated with GIS,
make valuation and assessment more accurate, efficient and
applicable for jurisdictions of all sizes. For more than twenty
years, the organizations have hosted a conference to discuss the
importance of data and the analysis of location information for
better decision-making within a jurisdiction.
