SCHEDULE A MEETING

The clear highlight of the event for Microdrones was the Microdrones-sponsored ASPRS workshop on Thursday, Feb 8th, titled “ASPRS UAS LiDAR Workshop – Unmanned Airborne LiDAR for Precision Mapping.” Microdrones’ very own Dr. Mohamed Mostafa, Director of mdSolutions was the presenter.

Reviews following this workshop were extremely positive. One attendee said, “This was the best workshop in the entire event;” while another attendee added, “Dr. Mostafa’s presentation was amazing. He managed to cover eight years of my professional geospatial schooling in one concise four-hour course.”

Microdrones also presented a special afternoon workshop demonstrating how the new mdLiDAR1000 system offers customers a fully integrated system. The steps in the system are easy to understand: PLAN. FLY. PROCESS. VISUALIZE. The team used data collected from a special demo conducted in cooperation with Microdrones dealer, Frontier Precision, earlier that week at a nearby golf course undergoing renovation to show the results achievable with this system.

Check out the video from that demo to see how the mdLiDAR1000 system performs in action.

A $4 billion repair backlog will now shape Louisiana's college building budgets

A $4 billion repair backlog will now shape Louisiana's college building budgets

A Gordian assessment prepared for the Board of Regents puts the deferred maintenance backlog at Louisiana's public colleges at $4 billion. Buildings in the LSU and University of Louisiana systems average 64 years old, compared with 53 years for the community and technical colleges. Those findings now sit alongside a $1.25 billion capital request covering 73 projects.

  • 01Louisiana's state buildings are 70% concentrated on public postsecondary campuses, making higher education the primary owner of state-owned facility inventory.
  • 02The University of Louisiana System has the largest share of highest-risk buildings (over 50 years old) at 35%, while the community and technical college system leads in low-risk buildings at 22%.
  • 03The $1.25 billion capital outlay request covers 73 construction projects but measures construction and new work, not the $4 billion deferred maintenance backlog, representing different funding categories.

Unique Voice says role play draws out safeguarding disclosures

Unique Voice says role play draws out safeguarding disclosures

Unique Voice co-founder Krystal Keeley told CPOMS’s Safeguarding and Focus podcast that drama and role play can help children disclose concerns indirectly. An NSPCC study found 117 of 203 childhood disclosures were acted on. Disclosures from creative sessions still go to the DSL under KCSIE 2026.

  • 01The NSPCC lists four ways a child discloses, and only one is a direct statement; Keeley says drama and storytelling help children disclose indirectly.
  • 02In the NSPCC's study of 60 abuse survivors, 117 of 203 childhood disclosures were acted on, so surfacing a concern is only half the job.
  • 03A creative-session disclosure follows the same route as any other: the child's exact words, written down and passed to the designated safeguarding lead under KCSIE 2026.
