Commercial Drone Best Practices: How to Incorporate Data and Job SpecsColin Snow
Drones are an exciting platform that is now emerging as a competitive technology in a number of professional surveying data collection scenarios - including mobile and airborne LiDAR. This presentation presents an overview of what to consider when adding a remotely piloted airborne photogrammetry or laser scanning system to your practice.
Towards An Open Instrumentation Platform: Getting The Most From MAVLink, Ardu...Steve Arnold
What is a drone? What is an autopilot, and just what is an IMU and a Kalman filter? This presentation describes an open source hardware and software architecture defined by the Ardupilot firmware, the MAVLink message protocol, several layers of user-space software, and various supported hardware devices and peripherals. It will also cover the current capabilities and components of the core software stacks, as well as extended support for different hardware platforms and sensors, computer vision processing, cameras and image tags, as well as specific science applications and related FOSS projects currently underway. The two highlighted projects both suggest more non-traditional (and less mobile) data acquisition applications using these tools; for more typical UAV applications, airframe options and alternative firmware will also be discussed.
An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), commonly known as a Drone, is an aircraft without a human pilot on board. UAVs can be remote controlled aircraft (e.g. flown by a pilot at a ground control station) or can fly autonomously based on pre-programmed flight plans or more complex dynamic automation systems
A UAV is defined as being capable of controlled, sustained level flight and powered by a jet or reciprocating engine. In addition, a cruise missile can be considered to be a UAV, but is treated separately on the basis that the vehicle is the weapon.
Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are aircrafts that fly without any humans being onboard. They are either remotely piloted, or piloted by an onboard computer. This kind of aircrafts can be used in different military missions such as surveillance, reconnaissance, battle damage assessment, communications relay, minesweeping, hazardous substances detection and radar jamming. However they can be used in other than military missions like detection of hazardous objects on train rails and investigation of infected areas. Aircrafts that are able of hovering and vertical flying can also be used for indoor missions like counter terrorist operations

Fast jet flying is an inherently complex and demanding activity that remains dependent on the mindset and decision-making ability of the pilot. Recognizing the need to optimize this human performance in order to achieve its operational goals, the RAF has initiated a culture of self-improvement with dynamic feedback loops that seek out and capture the real sources of underperformance for consistently better outcomes. How can the investment management industry apply the same principles to upping its own game?

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.
