How do people get started with survey mapping and modelling software if they haven’t been using any before now?

What are the benefits of Digital Terrain Modelling software to businesses both large and small?

What do we mean by "point clouds"? What computing power do you need to run survey software?

Are survey software files interoperable with other systems?

What has this all got to do with BIM and playing golf with a spoon?

How can survey mapping and modelling software allow us to completely transform how we manage the site engineering aspects of construction and how this could be used to optimise activities such as transport logistics?

These are the questions and some of the points of discussion with some of the leading software and technical support providers at our fifth Ask the panel Event on the theme of setting out and surveying.

In this episode we were joined by:

Nigel Lorriman - General manager- LSS- McCarthy Taylor
