Meet the pros behind HxGN LIVE Geosystems Surveying and Infrastructure sub-track

Planning an event like HxGN LIVE is no easy feat. There are speakers to schedule, trainings to plan, space to set up, and the list goes on.

When it comes to the details, though, the Geosystems Surveying & Infrastructure sub-track is in good hands. Two Leica Geosystems professionals are well underway in developing this year’s sub-track that covers the spectrum of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and Building Information Modeling (BIM).

Presenting the pros

We sat down with these masterminds for a behind-the-scenes look at what attendees registering in the Surveying & Infrastructure sub-track could expect, and here’s the inside scoop.

Bettina Dense, senior applications engineer with the Geomatics Division, has been with the company for 14 years.
