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.

CoSN tells school districts to plan for adoption before they buy new tech

CoSN tells school districts to plan for adoption before they buy new tech

CoSN's 2026 Blaschke Report and companion toolkit give K-12 districts a plan for technology change. Its main point is timing. Districts should define the problem, the success measure and staff workload before procurement, then run rollouts through change champions and a council that reviews significant technology changes.

  • 01CoSN’s toolkit pushes planning before procurement: define the problem, affected groups, timeline, and success measures, and account for competing initiatives and implementation fatigue.
  • 02The toolkit urges leaders to account for competing initiatives and implementation fatigue before procurement or a districtwide rollout.
  • 03After launch, districts should track adoption indicators, review feedback and help requests, keep refresher training going, and conduct a post-implementation review.

Copyleaks says Classroom reach spans most K-12 and higher ed

Copyleaks says Classroom reach spans most K-12 and higher ed

Copyleaks says its Classroom integration reaches most K-12 and higher ed LMS platforms. Copyleaks says Instructure recently named it a top-tier strategic sales partner, and it describes a partnership with D2L Brightspace that broadens access for colleges and universities. For schools, key choices include billing on the LMS invoice and AI Sensitivity settings that align thresholds with policy.

  • 01When nearly nine in ten students use AI for schoolwork, the sensitivity threshold a school sets in Copyleaks works as its AI policy, written in software.
  • 02Copyleaks says the integration brings it to learning management systems used by approximately 80% of the K-12 market and 95% of higher education institutions. That is the ceiling on who could turn it on, not a count of paying schools.
  • 03Before scanning against Copyleaks' Shared Data Hub, institutions decide whether student papers join a pool shared with other institutions. The API can limit comparisons to the school's own submissions and permanently purge documents.
