After a period of ‘radio silence’ I’m looking at doing more regular postings here. \u00a0As I’ve discussed before this blog is naturally a semi-official Garsdale Design<\/a> blog as well. \u00a0As such we’re looking to have our Southampton colleague Nicholas Duggan contribute every so often. \u00a0Nick (or @Dragons8MyCat<\/a> ) is a\u00a0well known blogger <\/a>and the European Editor for XyHt magazine<\/a>\u00a0as well as having vast GIS and mapping experience in the Nuclear and off-shore industry.\u00a0<\/p>\n Garsdale Design’s work in 3D GIS is well recognised in the Esri world, I’ve heard us called the ‘3D-Guys’ more than a few times from separate people\/organisations now. \u00a0We’re looking to capitalise on our knowledge by creating a new brand (which will be launched soon) to separate ourselves a little from Garsdale’s Architectural, Planning and heritage business. \u00a0 We’re also on the cusp of launching (subject to some bureaucracy, don’t ask) a 3D data service for people who just want their 3D basemap now. \u00a0 If you’d like some more details you can contact us\u00a0directly<\/a>.<\/p>\n We’re getting increasing numbers of enquiries for CityEngine and ArcGISPro training<\/a>, not least because we are the official EsriUK CityEngine trainers<\/a>! \u00a0I think this is mostly down to increased awareness of the 3D capabilities of the Esri platform (have you tried ArcGISPro yet??<\/a>). \u00a0Planners seem to especially ‘get’ Esri CityEngine. \u00a0 Also whilst there is much talk of BIM more and more organisations\u00a0realise that BIM doesn’t sit in a vacuum and often requires GIS. \u00a0BIM is 3D and so knowledge of 3D GIS is required.<\/p>\n This year we hope to organise a geospatial mini-conference here in Cumbria, with some speakers and followed on by a couple of days of training\/workshops. \u00a0If you’re interested in getting involved or coming along please get in touch.<\/p>\n Keep on the look out for our new brand, we’ll do a blog post here on launch day. \u00a0In the meantime if you need Esri CityEngine or ArcGISPro training contact us!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" After a period of ‘radio silence’ I’m looking at doing more regular postings here. \u00a0As I’ve discussed before this blog is naturally a semi-official Garsdale Design blog as well. \u00a0As such we’re looking to have our Southampton colleague Nicholas Duggan contribute every so often. \u00a0Nick (or @Dragons8MyCat ) is a\u00a0well known blogger and the […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":161,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[93,12,116,145,7],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-3365","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-3d","7":"category-arcgis","8":"category-city-creation","9":"category-cityengine","10":"category-gis"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.geoplanit.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3365","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.geoplanit.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.geoplanit.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.geoplanit.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/161"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.geoplanit.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=3365"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.geoplanit.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3365\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3371,"href":"https:\/\/www.geoplanit.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3365\/revisions\/3371"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.geoplanit.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=3365"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.geoplanit.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=3365"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.geoplanit.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=3365"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![](\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.geoplanit.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/ArcGISPro_1_4_splash.png?resize=631%2C309\")
