Celebrating Innovative Companies Making Impact in Photogrammetric Surveying
Washington, DC (February 2023) – MAPPS, the preeminent association of geospatial firms in the United States, honored members with the 2022 Geospatial Excellence Awards as part of its 16th annual awards ceremony on Wednesday, February 22, 2023. The Awards were held in conjunction with the 2023 Winter Conference at the Hyatt Regency Grand Reserve, Rio Grande, Puerto Rico.
MAPPS is dedicated to comprehensively supporting, advocating, and promoting the business needs, technical and professional education, geospatial policy, and legislation interests of its members. MAPPS’ member firms are thought leaders in mapping, surveying, photogrammetry, satellite and airborne remote sensing, aerial photography, hydrography, GPS and GIS data collection and processing services, technology development, and geospatial products.
The Geospatial Excellence Awards spotlight and honor the members’ important and impactful work addressing planning and design, and construction needs with geospatial solutions. The honored members produce innovative technologies, software solutions, and ancillary services that aid global companies and government agencies in the development and/or restoration of the places critical to growth.
The Geospatial Excellence Awards are presented annually to member firms whose entries exemplify the professionalism, value, integrity, and achievement of the firm’s staff as demonstrated over the previous year. A distinguished and impartial panel of judges evaluated the submitted projects from five categories and selected a winner from each: Data Acquisition & Processing, Surveying/Field Data Collection, GIS/IT/Remote Sensing Analysis, Small Projects, and Technology Innovation/Licensed Data Products.
