A proud long term Esri Partner, we were thrilled to be an official sponsor of the 2023 New Zealand Esri User Conference (NZEUC) held last week at the Cordis, Auckland. The #NZEUC is one of the largest gatherings of #GIS and spatial professionals in the southern hemisphere, with approximately 700 delegates at this year’s event – possibly the largest geospatial gathering in the history of Aotearoa New Zealand.
Woolpert were sponsors of the celebrated NZEUC Gala Dinner, which this year, was a Night at the Museum themed extravaganza! Representing Woolpert at the conference, were New Zealand Account Manager, Fadia Zein, and Asia-Pacific Sales Manager, Daniel Kruimel who connected with delegates from all over the South Pacific, discovering the latest advances in #GIS technology.
For over 30 years, Woolpert has supported New Zealand with aerial survey services. Today, from our base in Hawkes Bay, we deliver, innovative, world leading aerial mapping solutions to clients and stakeholders across the Pacific.
From aerial survey to providing infrastructure for spatial digital twins, to enterprise GIS services and everything in between, we work with partners like Esri to provide vital, accurate, and cost-effective aerial mapping solutions.
The upcoming aerial capture season will see the local team deliver LiDAR capture over Hawkes Bay in support of recovery efforts following the widespread devastation of Cyclone Gabrielle.
Woolpert is thrilled to be using our industry leading technology and processes to support recovery and rebuild efforts resulting from Cyclone Gabrielle earlier this year. With baseline LiDAR data captured before the cyclone, newly captured data will be vital in determining affected areas and providing up to date information to aid in the rebuild.
Fadia said Toitū Te Whenua Land Information New Zealand (LINZ) have been innovators in their mission to map most of New Zealand using laser sensors. They are currently at 50% complete and the end goal is 80% (source: LINZ).
Pioneers in the use of airborne LiDAR in New Zealand, Woolpert looks forward to continuing to support the nation’s government and industry.
