Sion Rowlands, Sales Manager for Europe, has an extensive Geospatial background beginning with an education in Geomatics and Geospatial surveying. Throughout his career he’s focused on business development and Geospatial consulting throughout the United Kingdom. Now, in his role as Sales Manager, Rowlands showcases, promotes and sells Microdrones integrated systems throughout the European Geospatial community.

On the podcast, Sion recaps his experience at the 2018 Intergeo conference, the global hub for the geospatial community. He noted that this year there was a much stronger influence and presence of UAV companies and solution providers. “There’s always been a strong focus on the traditional geospatial data collection methods: GPS, control stations, laser scanners and the like. However, this year there was a much heavier influence and presence of drones and solution providers such as Microdrones,” Rowlands said. "We’re at the point where there’s beginning to be a shift within the industry that UAVs have become an important tool in the geospatial portfolio.”
