The current COVID-19 pandemic has seen mapping technology used to make many resources - including Food Assistance - more accessible. What are the most helpful applications you have seen Geographic Information System (GIS) technology used for lately? Explore more in our latest #DailyBrainCandiii post.

To help hungry residents find food and other resources amid the coronavirus pandemic, city and county governments — like Allegheny County, Pennsylvania — are using geographic information systems, better known as GIS, to advertise locations of local food banks and distribution centers.


Fun Fact: In 2018, a publication devoted 11 pages to determining the term to be used for drones. Yes, your read that correctly. If that does not spell complex, we don't know what does. Learn more about narrowing the focus of UAV and UAS tech in this week's #DailyBrainCandiii post now.

For me, as a mineral and geomatics surveyor and environmental consultant, it was never about the drone, but about the high-resolution and high-accuracy 3D photogrammetric model... I am now using far richer and more useful survey data that has been collected with me out of harm’s way – with the added bonus of saving time as well.
