We are thrilled to have ILMF and ELMF in the SPAR Point Group portfolio, said Lisa Murray, Director of SPAR Point Group. These well-established, highly-regarded events further expand our reach into airborne LiDAR, bathymetry and mobile mapping technologies. Users are increasingly integrating data from multiple sources and it makes sense that as these technologies converge, the events that serve the market work together to support the industry.
