Send me a messageIn this episode of the Sustainable Supply Chain podcast, I had an insightful conversation with John Atkinson, the Chief Product Officer at LiveEO. We explored how satellite imagery and advanced machine learning are transforming supply chain sustainability, particularly in light of the European Union Deforestation Regulation (EUDR).John shared how LiveEO began by monitoring vegetation risks to infrastructure like railways and power grids, using Earth observation data to help companies manage maintenance proactively. Recognising the parallels between monitoring vegetation growth and deforestation, they've developed a new solution to assist companies in complying with the EUDR.We delved into the significant challenges posed by inaccuracies in open-source deforestation data, which can lead to false positives and unfairly penalise compliant suppliers. John explained how LiveEO's region-specific machine learning models provide more accurate assessments, helping companies avoid supply chain disruptions while supporting ethical practices.A key takeaway from our discussion was the potential impact of the EUDR on global supply chains, especially for commodities like palm oil, rubber, and coffee. Companies relying on inaccurate data may face significant losses, affecting not only their operations but also the livelihoods of smallholder farmers.We also touched on future applications of saElevate your brand with the ‘Sustainable Supply Chain' podcast, the voice of supply chain sustainability.Last year, this podcast's episodes were downloaded over 113,000 times by senior supply chain executives around the world.Become a sponsor.

On the latest episode of the WGI Unleashed podcast, we get to know Mark Topping, a Geospatial Technology Specialist III based out of our Huntsville, AL office. Mark, a member of the WGI Geospatial division, joined our team a little over a year ago as part of WGI's acquisition of The Atlantic Group, LLC. In this unique episode, Mark gave us the privilege of being WGI Unleashed's first international guest, as we discovered that he resides in Canada for the majority of the year when not traveling for work. Getting to know Mark throughout our conversation, he expressed what it was like to grow up in the second-largest country in the world, just outside of the dynamic metropolis of Toronto, and also shared some of the geographical and cultural likenesses and differences between living in Canada versus the United States. Referring to himself as your "stereotypical Canadian," he jokingly shared that he was born with hockey skates on and grew up participating in all of the winter sports that the country had to offer, such as hockey, skiing, snowboarding, and snowmobiling. We learned that Mark attended college in Ontario at the University of Guelph, where he obtained his Bachelor of Arts degree in Geography and History, and we also had the pleasure of hearing the hilarious tale of how he decided on the University of Guelph in the first place. Spoiler alert, it had nothing to do with academics. Mark discovered remote sensing during his time in college. Upon graduating, Mark decided that he wished to pursue geographic applications of remote sensing technology with his father, who had been engaged in engineering work for a local lidar sensor manufacturer. In his time working as a Flight Operations Specialist and later as a Training and Delivery Manager for one of the industry's largest builders of lidar equipment, Mark established and solidified his passion for airborne surveying. It was at this time in Mark's young career that he met and trained the folks at the Atlantic Group, a major geospatial service provider in the southeast. Mark and the Atlantic Group worked so well together that he found himself joining the team and, shortly thereafter, joining WGI through the firm's acquisition. And the rest, they say, is history. As our conversation went on, we gained an overview of Mark's role and responsibilities in his position with us here at WGI and were also clued in on a few of the cool perks of his job, such as getting to travel to remote, untouched regions in areas like the Grand Canyon National Park, the Amazon Rain Forrest, and even Borneo! And when he's not globetrotting to collect aerial lidar data, Mark can be found playing softball with his coed recreational team, visiting new places with his wife, and hanging out with his Sheltie dog Winston. And if that's not enough... Since recording this episode of the WGI Unleashed podcast, Mark has also joined the new Dad's Club! So, as could be imagined, his spare time is now mostly spent changing diapers, making bottles, and snuggling with his adorable newborn daughter at every chance he gets. What are you waiting for? Go give the latest episode of WGI Unleashed a listen now - you know you want to. This is your chance to get a peek behind the curtain as Mark reveals the unique way fate stepped in to help him meet his wife, shares about the rare oral condition he has to be extra cognizant of now that he has a baby, and so much more!

For our first WGI Unleashed episode of the new year, we chatted with Christian Stewart, a Geospatial Technologies Specialist, out of our West Palm Beach, FL office. Christian is an extremely talented and knowledgeable member of our robust Geospatial division with over 18 years of dedicated service at WGI! Christian gave us a glimpse into his early life in the Berkshires, NY, and revealed that the traditional college education path wasn't right for him, so after high school, he booked it down to sunny Florida. We talked about how one of his friends, who already worked at WGI, scored him a job as a rodman on a field crew focusing on land surveying. He explained that he was attracted to this work because it provided him the opportunity to be outside in nature while also allowing him to travel to different parts of the state and country. Soon after beginning his career here, he and a few others on his team decided to take advantage of WGI's tuition reimbursement program and joined a Geospatial apprenticeship program at a local college, where he received several professional certifications, and all the while furthering his desire for this field of work. Christian walked us through what "a day in the life" looks like for him here at WGI, and was quick to boast about all the high-tech pieces of equipment he has gotten to put his hands on and all the different types of challenging projects he has had the opportunity to work on during his time here. We also talked about what he likes to do in his spare time and discovered he is an avid long-distance runner, having completed multiple ultramarathons in the United States and several other countries. We also learned how following the death of a close friend, he leveraged his love for running and desire to honor her memory into an annual charity event called the JW Corbett 50 Mile Race. This event, which is near and dear to Christian's heart, raises money for underprivileged schools in South America to purchase musical instruments. Listen now to find out what Christian's cell phone wallpaper is, which celebrities he's had the unique opportunity to meet, and how many different countries he has completed ultramarathons in.

Geospatial technologies, or earth mapping capabilities, have long been in use in military intelligence and defense. Today, they’re being deployed commercially and likely to have transformational impacts in the era of Industry 4.0, including agriculture, defense, transportation, health care, financial services, and even real estate. St. Louis has long been home to the U.S. Geospatial Intelligence Agency’s Western outpost—which has $1.75 billion in a new and improved agency HQ in St Louis. And the industry has already had a $5 billion economic impact on that city, and that’s prior to major VC funds taking stakes in companies. We talked to Andy Dearing, president of Spatial STL Advisors, a strategic consulting firm specializing in geospatial technologies, and project lead of the GeoFutures Initiative, an industry roadmap for the broader St. Louis geospatial startup scene.
