Happy World #LiDAR day. Petabytes of points and counting... Cheers to staying on point with this illuminating technology since 1984 when we began operating the world's first commercial bathymetric LiDAR system, #Optech Larsen 500. We were into LiDAR before it was cool.

These moments certainly remind us to take a moment of pause to be mindful of the spirit of giving and kindness that is the true hallmark of the holiday season. Happy Holidays to all our staff, clients and partners, and best wishes for 2025!

It was truly heartwarming to see the extensive staff participation in Terra's 5th annual Cridge Centre for the Family Holiday Hamper, and the subsequent joy that the sleigh delivery provided a family in need.

Being part of a project using this advanced ROV in our front yard is a remarkable opportunity. Very cool stuff. #NeptuneNetwork https://t.co/SsLUwqrCOM

Do you remember when you joined X? I do! #MyXAnniversary

@CHEK_News Good decision to cancel. Conditions weren’t optimal, first and foremost considering safety, and secondly, not conducive to a tightly coordinated #droneshow. Windy and cold last night. Unless otherwise agreed to, fair to cover standby costs as conditions are always a coin toss!

@BruceRalston Thanks kindly @BruceRalston for your engaging visit to our headquarters!

I toured @TerraRemote in Sidney today, and learned more about their work on #LiDAR mapping forests in B.C. and around the world.

@Dallas4BC Thanks Dallas and all that made this event possible. Wonderful to have you back, and in fine form.

Scientists believe hot magma will erupt under the Pacific Ocean floor in deep waters off Vancouver Island after they detected up to 200 small earthquakes per hour in the area.

Happy Holidays everyone. And now for some #LiDAR to please the senses. Have yourself a mappy little Christmas time! ❤️

Here’s a 4D statement for #GISDay2023 “It’s time to get spatial” Like what we did there? Time and Space is what it’s all about right? GIS was our passion yesterday, is today and will be tomorrow.

GoGoGoGeoExpo was a fantastic event in #Calgary #YYC. Thanks to the organizers and all participants for making this event one for the books. We shared, we learned and we made friends #GoGeoExpo2023

Terra is incredibly excited and proud to be part of these types of highly important and innovative projects in our region to help better understand the impacts of #climatechange on deep #ocean ecosystems https://t.co/2D4FA1Lbhl

Get ready to put your hands together! #Rifflandia2023 #YYJ is kickin off tonight! Terra is proud to be a festival partner again this year. Thanks to all the organizers and volunteers for putting together yet another awesome lineup of artists this year! #parishilton 🩷 #sliving

Contrary to what you may be thinking, this is not columnar basalt. This is modelled tree crown growth over a 5 year period using comparative high resolution #LiDAR surveys. Excellent exciting pretty stuff!

@SandySifert @Adam_Stirling There are many interesting applications of using LiDAR to support decision making across a range of disciplines. Some resources you may want to check out: https://t.co/hjxvLpN8zj(sometimes%20also%20written%20as,and%20watershed%20and%20river%20surveys.

@S2Banham @Adam_Stirling Interesting question… the open data is outdated (2018-2019), and acquired at a lower density and with a larger beam divergence. 8 pulse LiDAR isn’t sufficient to pick up many features in urban settings. Federal guidelines suggest 20 pulses. This much higher than that.
