3. Who is Focus
Geomatics& Engineering Company
Land Survey
Municipal Engineering
Pipeline Engineering
Planning and Land Development
Many different data formats and software tools
41. GIS to CAD
Moved CAD datasets into ESRI File Geodatabase
Still need CAD Versions for Consultants
Needed in SHAPE files and SQL Database
MapGuideWebGIS
Mobile GIS – iGIS
Quality Control / Data Validation

(GRAPHIC – GIS / CAD / WebGIS / iGIS)
43. Video to KML
Record Video and GPS at same time
Extract Video Frames (Adobe Premiere)
FME Creates KML showing Points along path and
link to Video
Lots of Field Time (Does things to people) VideoRecruitment Video – Lighter side of what we do.Survey Field Equipment, AutoCAD, GIS, LiDAR, Imagery, Databases, I have started to turn into the guy that people phone when something seems impossible.“I heard you are the guy that can work miracles”Of course I have to tell them no. But you should see what FME can do.
Tracking Historical Project Information.Needs to be Simple, easy to expand and connect other pieces to it.Show demo of Google Earth with Project pointsShow Excel formatLink to PDF, Link to Point fileFuture use of FME Server so Admin staff can convert Excel files to KML documentsExplain how Point files created for historical data – 300,000 files, 65,000 folders (Server located 1,000 km away)
Demo of Google Earth Project Tracking KMLShow Garmin TracksSurvey data from JXLsPhoto LocationsOther KML layers included, Parcels, NTS, Trim Grids, GeoBC KMLs etc…37GB of Data (18,000 files)
In engineering – DesignTIN surfaces are very specificAny reinterpretation of the TIN surface changes the design, so are not allowedFME able to move it around without changing it, but have to be carefulStill some things can’t do with FME – Contouring, Convert to Raster
Land Survey work in Ground unitsMost data is in Grid unitsConversion betweenScale FactorSometimes around specific Ground Control Point
One client worked with extensively (VAA)Moved from CAD only environment to GISBut still have same CAD needs plus many other data format needsFME allows us to work in GIS and generate other formats on demand
Currently no standard for storing GPS in Video files. Store them separately.Project for access to possible cell tower locationsVideo of RouteGPS of RoutePull apart video frames in Adobe PremiereCreate Key Frame maps in ArcMap from GPS pointsFME figures out the timeing, links up the videoU:\010038570 - Telus Cell Towers\Site 1654

Explain how FME is used to create Conceptual model from some basic CAD dataShow that 3D PDFs are measurable – FME can’t set units in 3D PDF (would be nice for future)Layers in 3D PDFShow same model in 3D PDF and Sketchup.
Deliver Imagery for planning purposesUnmanned Aerial Vehicle data collection (kites, mini helicopters, planes)Capture aerial imagery and use Agrasoft to create 3D modelsAlso DSLR mounts in planes to capture airphotos and stitch together FME creates Google Earth Superoverlays for distribution.
