1 98th CIG Conference: Geomatics Empowering the Future Competing for the Future he Panel: he Sector Leaders oday! erry arle, Bob Moses, Keith hompson, Brian Maloney, Jeff Labonte and You.. Will they be the leaders in 2020? 1 Canadian institute of geomatics Association canadienne des sciences géomatique

2 he 1994 Strategic Architecture In 1994 a number of managers in NRCan led by Ed Shaw developed the strategic architecture perspective of the future of geomatics, to improve the competitive position of the Canada in this sector he vision of the future turned out to be amazingly accurate; foe example at that time a GPS watch was foreseen to deliver and store real time information. his diagram was actually used in the strategic plan to visualize the planned progress within a 5 year time horizon ( ) 2 Canadian institute of geomatics Association canadienne des sciences géomatique

Use it to prepare for the dialogue, and please hand it in to Jean hie, moderator of the Futures Panel after the dialogue. FUURE development 3 Barrier?? Strategic Intent/ Outcome PAS Core Specialty development PRESEN development 3 Approach : 10 years ago a number of NRCan Managers met to prepare a geomatics strategy map to the Future. his map turned out to be amazingly accurate. We would like to create a not jus a map, but a knowledge base like this for the next 20 years, accessible on the CIG website. 1. Develop your strategy line to the future in your unique competency area; R&D, technology, data supply, value-adding, end user. We are after a multi-stakeholder, multi-technology perspective. 2. Build on your knowledge of key developments of past/ present and forecast/ foresee your future for the next years. Summarize the key developments as simple headings on the cards and provide more detail on the back of the sheet, if necessary.
