Researchers, engineers, academics and industry experts convene annually at the JALBTCX Workshop to share knowledge and expertise in topic areas including airborne coastal mapping and charting sensor development, algorithm development, data fusion, topographic and bathymetric lidar, digital and spectral imagery, integrated data processing, derived information products, and coastal applications for these data. Formal presentations on these topics, in conjunction with software demonstrations and breakout sessions, secure the JALBTCX Workshop as the premiere, 3-day forum for understanding the state-of-the-art in coastal mapping and charting technologies and applications, and for learning about emerging </font><font face='Avenir Next W01, Avenir Next W00, Avenir Next, Avenir, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif'>technologies</font><font face='inherit'> that will address the </font>community's<font face='inherit'> current technical challenges.</font><span style='font-family: inherit; font-size: 16px;'>  </span></font><span style='font-family: &quot;Avenir Next W01&quot;, &quot;Avenir Next W00&quot;, &quot;Avenir Next&quot;, Avenir, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif !important; font-size: 16px;'><font color='#000000' style='font-family: inherit;'><br /></font></span></font></p><p style='margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 16px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: open_sansregular, sans-serif; outline: none;'><span style='font-family: &quot;Avenir Next W01&quot;, &quot;Avenir Next W00&quot;, &quot;Avenir Next&quot;, Avenir, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif !important;'><font color='#000000' size='4' style='font-family: inherit;'><br /></font></span></p><p style='margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 16px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: open_sansregular, sans-serif; outline: none;'><span style='font-family: &quot;Avenir Next W01&quot;, &quot;Avenir Next W00&quot;, &quot;Avenir Next&quot;, Avenir, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;'><font color='#000000' size='4' style='font-family: inherit;'>The JALBTCX mission is to perform operations, research and development in airborne lidar bathymetry and complementary technologies to support the coastal mapping and charting requirements of the US Army Corps of Engineers, the US Naval Meteorology and Oceanography Command and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. Survey operations are conducted worldwide using the Coastal Zone Mapping and Imaging (CZMIL) system and other industry-based coastal mapping and charting systems. Operations are coordinated with Federal Mapping partners through the Interagency Working Group on Ocean and Coastal Mapping (IWGOCM) and the 3D Elevation Program (3DEP).</font></span></p><p style='margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 16px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: open_sansregular, sans-serif; outline: none;'><span style='font-family: &quot;Avenir Next W01&quot;, &quot;Avenir Next W00&quot;, &quot;Avenir Next&quot;, Avenir, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;'><font color='#000000' size='4' style='font-family: inherit;'><br /></font></span></p><p style='margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 16px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: open_sansregular, sans-serif; outline: none;'><a href='https://jalbtcx-live.azurewebsites.net/' target='_blank'>JALBTCX Website</a><br /></p>
