Hold onto your antennae and calibrate your coordinates — this episode blasts off into GNSS orbit with Mike Horton of GEODNET and Larry Fox of Bad Elf! We’re talking democratization, satellites, and a robot invasion of 2025 (no big deal).
From Chicago’s north side to UC Berkeley and beyond, these GPS pioneers dropped knowledge like satellites in freefall:
Why decentralizing GNSS might just save the world (or at least your drone survey).
How GEODNET is quietly assembling the world’s largest RTK network — one miner at a time.
And what happens when a “Bad Elf” and a “Geo-Nerd” walk into a room.
There’s tech talk, trust talk, and even some good ol’ fashioned Iron Man headbanging as Black Sabbath sets the musical tone for the week.
Bonus: find out what woodworking, 3D printing, and Mandarin Chinese have to do with geospatial innovation. (Spoiler: nothing... and everything.)
And don’t miss the NLCPREP brain teaser — GPS isn’t about magnets or mirrors, folks!
This episode is brought to you by our friends at EMLID, TopoDOT, Hexagon, AllTerra Central, and of course, David Evans & Associates — where commitments are serious, and the relationships are even better.
