As Seen on TV

The Mobile LiDAR team at Michael Baker International had the distinct pleasure of being showcased on the latest episode of Worldwide Business with kathy ireland®.  The segment, which aired on Sunday, September 25^th on Fox Business Network, featured Peter Bonne, CEO of Orbit GT®.  As you’ve seen in previous posts (Picture of the Week and LiDAR Data & Orbit GT), Michael Baker utilizes Orbit’s Content Manager, Asset Inventory and Publisher software applications to exploit LiDAR and panoramic imagery through our own web-portal.

Michael Baker’s Mobile LiDAR equipment and personnel were represented throughout the broadcast, including interviews with Bob Hanson, Senior Vice President of Geospatial Information Technology and Scott Peterson, Systems Supervisor.  Each discussed the importance of Geospatial data in managing and maintaining our Nation’s infrastructure.

Our LiDAR operations have employed Orbit GT’s software for the past year.  Publishing spherical imagery and LiDAR data has become a routine deliverable to our clients. By offering the data in an “easy to use” application our clients are empowered to make timely decisions without overwhelming them with “Big Data.”
