Columbia County GIS
We just returned from the 2024 ESRI Southeast User Conference last week. Columbia County GIS was asked to speak at the Plenary and a Detailed User Presentation. This conference had almost 700 ESRI customers, vendors, a staff in attendance from across the southeast. Our presentation was titled “Columbia County's 3D Journey". This was a great honor to be selected to speak at this level.
This presentation covered Columbia County's past four year history on this subject. From the first city model created, usage of sUAS in aerial 3D captures, special 3D site projects, and future initiatives. Including model creation, imagery capture, and product development.
Very proud of the presenters, as well as the rest of the GIS Department who are part of this evolution. Special thanks to the stakeholders and Columbia County customers who sponsored these projects.
We will host the vendors below between 11:30-1:00pm on May 9th. Click their name to find out more info:
Coordinated by our EMA
