Kentucky GIS Conference 2024

An opportunity for presenters scheduled for the Demo theatre to see a demonstration of the iPlan table provided by Joe Woods of Lynn Imaging.

iPlanTables is the nation’s leading supplier of wide-format touchscreen display workstations for plan reviewers, plans examiners, and managers. Further information on the iPlan table can be found here 

This session will review the latest updates to ArcGIS User Types and discuss options for managing GIS users across your organization.  We'll review transition approaches and address the need to move from legacy deployments to more agile solutions supporting user and constituent needs.  We'll also review resources available to assist with best practices and alignment with standard IT practices.

This session empowers attendees of all levels to explore the vast potential of Experience Builder. We’ll start by building a strong foundation through core concepts and functionalities. Next, we’ll provide clear guidelines for users transitioning from Web AppBuilder, ensuring a smooth and efficient switch. Advanced users will then discover valuable tips and trick to tap into Experience Builder’s full creative power. Finally, we’ll conclude with an exciting preview of upcoming enhancements planned, leaving you equipped to leverage the platform’s future capabilities.

Grab your towel and join us for an interstellar journey through the galaxy of app development! In this session, we'll harness the power of AI to build an app faster than you can say "So long, and thanks for all the fish."

Armed with nothing but a keyboard and a chat bot, we'll embark on a live coding adventure. What will we build? That's up to you, the audience! Watch as we navigate the treacherous waters of AI-assisted coding. You'll witness firsthand how to use chat bots to write code.

But beware! This live demonstration could go spectacularly well or end up as a digital version of the planet-building disaster of Magrathea (spoiler: it didn’t go well). Either way, you'll learn real (as in, you'll see them work, or hilariously fail) tips and tricks for using chat bots effectively in your coding adventures.

So, whether you're a seasoned code hitchhiker or a newbie just learning to fly, come along for a wild ride through the AI-powered universe of app development.

ArcGIS Monitor helps organizations understand the health of their enterprise GIS system, so they can optimize their GIS deployment and keep the system running smoothly. This session will provide an overview of ArcGIS Monitor and its capabilities, tips for deploying and configuring ArcGIS Monitor, and how ArcGIS Monitor can provide timely and actionable insights into the health of your ArcGIS Enterprise environment.

This presentation showcases Kentucky’s success and leadership in the U.S. by completing 3-inch oblique imagery coverage statewide. Rigorous project timelines and significant benefits are highlighted, focusing on accuracy and precision of comprehensive oblique and nadir imagery. Detailed discussions include advanced data acquisition processes, specialized hardware and software, and organization of multiple subcontractors under varying weather conditions over numerous flight days. Provided are statistical insights on frame counts, flight lines, and total coverage, underscoring the meticulous planning and execution over two years. Furthermore, we explore several applications utilizing open access user availabilities through the KyFromAbove website. In conclusion, this presentation reviews Kentucky’s technical achievements in producing accurate and detailed statewide oblique imagery.

Technology moves fast. Breakthroughs are often outdated quickly. Today’s companies must embrace innovation in all its forms.
Workflows are transitioning from an analog world to digital point clouds, artificial intelligence, and data-driven decisions
LiDAR Scanning provides the tools necessary to create digital twins of the world. High-speed data capture allows increases in productivity without compromising accuracy and quality. Data collected a vehicle moving at the speed of traffic. Points are measured in billions. Progress is measured in miles versus meters.
Connections to the data enable decisions based on accurate and up-to-date information. Projects are being built under budget, ahead of time, and without paper using digital workflows.
Exciting times. Sensor fusion. Cell phones tell a person how many steps they have taken. Street View in Google Maps is assumed. Connect and Scale. It’s happening everywhere. What’s next?
