This year’s Imagery at UC conference track will focus on how imagery is core to GIS in management, dissemination, visualization and analysis.

Imagery activities will be split between the Omni Hotel and the San Diego Convention Center.
“As a member of the ESRI Partner Network, this sponsorship is a great opportunity to support ESRI and our customers,” said Jon Skiffington, LizardTech’s director of marketing. “Customers will have multiple opportunities to engage with LizardTech representatives and to find out how our software can meet their most complex needs in imagery management, manipulation, storage and distribution. This year we’re particularly eager to share innovations with MrSID® and raster imagery compression. Any questions from our presentations can be taken to our team in booth #810 where we’ll be providing additional demonstrations and information about all of our geospatial products.” LizardTech’s product line includes LiDAR Compressor™ software, GeoExpress™ software, Spatial Express™ software and Express Server™ software.
