GIST Alumni Trojan Recharge

Register now for the GIST Alumni Trojan Recharge, a new special program exclusively for our GIST alumni on Saturday morning, February 25, 2017, on “Emerging Trends in UAS Data Collection and Visualization” in the Spatial Sciences Institute on the USC campus.

This program will be a hand’s-on seminar on one of the hottest growing sub-fields in spatial sciences today. From 8:30 – 11:30 am, you will participate in demonstrations of new unmanned aerial systems (UAS) or drone software, tools, applications, and sensors that are being used to created precision map data and visualization for industry, government, and educational uses. Given the impact which the aerial imaging market is projected to have in the future, these topics are important for all working in geospatial roles and as current or future geospatial leaders.

The faculty for this “Trojan Recharge” program will be:

• COL [R] Steven D. Fleming, Ph.D., Professor of the Practice of Spatial Sciences, SSI
• LTC Ian Irmischer, Ph.D., Assistant Professor, United State Military Academy
• Ryan McAlinden, Director of Modeling, Simulation and Training, USC Institute for Creative Learning.
