Picture of the Week: Phoenix Rising

After almost 6 years of service (and new transmission), our Suburban has found new life, like a phoenix rising from the ashes.  It looks like a brand new vehicle with the original wrap removed and new wrap installed.  Our fleet is going to continue to sport matching red, white and blue designs. Now, all it needs is a system installed.


Cheers!

Article: Lowering the Barrier to Entry Does Not Eliminate the Requirement for Professionals

We’re not a one-trick pony, and we’re not terrestrially-bound.  Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) represent the newest, low-cost acquisition platform – but low-cost doesn’t give license for lack of professional responsibility.   Continuing our contributions to your reading pleasure, check out another recent article authored by our own Eric Andelin that was published in the May edition of LiDAR News Magazine

Pictures of the Week

Thank you to everyone who came out to celebrate the Open House of Michael Baker International's new office location in Dallas, TX.  Thankfully, the weather cooperated and we were able to show off one of our systems.


Pictured (from left to right) are Michael Baker International employees Cooper Liebau, June Garcia, Rocky Armendariz and Gene Valentine.


Also in attendance and inspecting the system, were our Chief Operating Officer Jeff Hill (right) and Senior Vice President/Gulf Coast Region Director Bill Macon (left).  

Although our Mobile LiDAR team and equipment may reside in only a handful of offices across our organization, we are all one Michael Baker International.  We welcome the opportunity to come out in support of our colleagues elsewhere.

Cheers!

Article: LiDAR Fusion for Impervious Surface Mapping

With the deployment of our 2 brand new Lynx SG1 systems, the past month has been admittedly hectic.  Although we haven’t had much time lately to post new material to the Blog, our team continues to contribute to the profession through other media outlets.

Check out a recent article published in the May edition of LiDAR News Magazine that was authored by our own Dr. Srinivasan Dharmapuri and Aaron Morris.

Cheers!
