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.

The U.S. Department of Education’s edtech guidance turns “evidence” into a procurement requirement, even without new federal rules

The U.S. Department of Education’s edtech guidance turns “evidence” into a procurement requirement, even without new federal rules

The U.S. Department of Education has released a Dear Colleague letter that changes the criteria for districts when purchasing educational technology. The focus is now on demonstrating outcomes, evidence, and proof of implementation rather than just usage metrics like log-ins. This guidance emphasizes the importance of results and efficiency in edtech procurement.

  • 01Educational technology procurement requires proof of outcomes and efficiency.
  • 02Districts must provide evidence and proof of implementation when purchasing edtech.
  • 03Usage metrics like log-ins are no longer sufficient for edtech procurement justification.
