I'm passionate with Drone technology. With our diligent and smart team in Calgary, Canada, we provide LiDAR Integration Product and drone based optical, thermal and lidar services in Oil & Gas, Forestry and government etc.
Since leaving school as GIS Postdoctoral Fellow from University of Saskatchewan in January 2013, I joined current Western Heritage (founded in 1990 by eight Archaeologists Veterans) as a GIS software developer. Currently as Manager and Board Member, I'm responsible for Drone & GIS Project and business development.
Beside work, I love to go to church, accompany with my three lovely kids and play basketball with good friends.

Machine Learning development based on drone data-Stage 2
Western Heritage UAV helps our clients with latest UAV technology to extract valuable information from aerial data. Our UAV system with different configurations can provide Lidar point cloud products (DTM and DEM), thermal inspection and optical mapping service to clients in Pipeline Inspection, Energy Inspection, Forest Survey, Archaeology, Civil Engineering and Road Survey. We are Transport Canada licensed with an Advanced Operations Certificate and have the $1 million Insurance, ISO 9001, COR Safety Certificate to operate in Canada, within urban areas or in close proximity aerodromes. On the stage 1, the students did a wonderful job to improve our agriculture AI model from 15% to about 65% accuracy, so we plan to apply riipen project again. We are looking for Computer Science/Geomatics students to join our machine learning team to develop AI algorithms based on drone imagery.

Drone LiDAR Services Launch to Look for New Clients
As a Drone services company, our primary goal is creating drone related products/services that are closely aligned to our market segmentβs wants and needs, so that we can maximize our sales. Recently we successfully developed LiDAR point cloud management system It will be important to gather information on buying behaviour, experiences, expectations, and perception of both our brand and our largest competitors. Tasks may involve: Looking for new potential customers. Creating effective conversation questions for customer interviews. Determining the best way to reach customers and how to motivate them to provide feedback on the company (we will distribute the survey accordingly). Analyzing trends within primary data collected through the survey and interviews, and reporting on them.
