 After three days of expo and conference, the International Platform for Geospatial IT interview 2022 comes to an end. So welcome to our final edition of Interview TV News from Essen. With almost 500 exhibitors from over 30 countries, around 15,000 trade visitors from 100 countries, inter-geo is back. So this sentence we heard a lot from many participants and exhibitors and they are all more than happy. My first inter-geo, after spending 20 years in construction, I now get a taste of real technology here. We learn to do video conference, but we also know it's necessary to meet in person. Brilliant, I'm absolutely over-fantastic being here, it's just wonderful. How do you rate that life-meeting atmosphere? More real. Happy to be here. From the world of technology, really people make the difference. That's what we experience here at inter-geo. Having the whole industry here, many of our customers, of our dealers, of our partners. It's immense. Yeah, it is immense. We are covering more than 460 companies at all here, 39, nearly 39 nations. In Essen, Germany. Yeah. This area of geoinformation, measurement is already far ahead, but of course these are also people who have the right mindset for it. We have bridged a lot and now we must go on to be faced on that aim to be CO2 neutral. Look who I met here in the middle of the exhibition halls of inter-geo 2022 in Essen. It's Chaba, singer from H-Aero. Tell us more about the use cases, where the H-Aero is used for. At the moment we could find out that in research and development, when there are some PhDs, when some professors apply for federal funds, they used to do it more and more with H-Aero. Therefore, there is also a relatively high success rate. We have three different flight modes. One of the flight modes is free flight, indoor and outdoor. Of course there the weather must fit, the wind sensitivity is relatively high, but if we want to have a position holding outdoor, for example looking at traffic, then we can also have a tethered balloon with the same device. We just need to manipulate it a bit and then we can have it in the mode of a raft like an aerosol. And there we can fly huge areas with the wind, collecting data like a satellite. At the conference, 120 speakers attracted more than 1,000 conference attendees. And organizer, DVW, Society for Geodesic, Geoinformation and Land Management, is very happy to finally bring many people into exchange again with a live event. So here are some statements from the interview organizers. The innovation in the geospatial industry continues. And I am sure that this year's intergeo will accelerate this development. Geoinformation will be in the future, following characters will be autonomous, they will be smart and they will be connected. And also geoinformation is also world-focusing and very highly interdisciplinary. And very, very important, they always have the people in the center. In summary, it means that they are simply out of our lives just not to think about it anymore, because important decisions will not come out in the future without reliable modeling. And for the DVW, I am very proud of it. The DVW as a event, it has succeeded. Very much young audience to bring this year's intergeo here to eat. For example, here were the pitches of the students, but also the intergeo school day, where over 70 students and students visited the intergeo. Shortly after, it has felt like a real intergeo. The intergeo is back, conferences and also mass visitors are excited. And finally, the demand for the geocommunity was able to be served after direct communication and immediate exchange. The intergeo here in Essen has succeeded. It was familiar to a show like we had in 2019 in Stuttgart. So, so many networking, so many talks, so many interactions in between the audiences. A lot of people here on the grounds, international guests, international exhibitors, it was thrilling, a thrilling show. At the official intergeo closing on behalf of the Platinum sponsors, Markus Westfall from Dremel Geospatial and Michael Mudra from Hexagon Geosystems emphasized how important it was that intergeo was held again as a face-to-face event, enabling them to reach international customers in person. The importance of the innovations shown at intergeo also made intergeo a significant exhibition for the geospatial industry. The organizer, DVW, was very satisfied with the response to the conference and to special events for young professionals, including pictures for students and the intergeo school day. Daniel Katzer from Hinter Expo and Conference gave the first figures of intergeo and drew an overall positive conclusion with the words intergeo is back. For DVW President Hans-Jörg Kotterer of The Organizer, this intergeo was a very special one. For professional reasons, he must step down from this office at the end of 2022. It was time to say goodbye and to thank him. With Rudolf Steiger currently still acting FAG president, the successor who will take over the presidency from January 2023 has already been determined.
