123rd ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING Wednesday, FEBRUARY 25th to Friday, FEBRUARY 27th, 2015 Deerhurst Resort Huntsville, Ontario INVITATION FROM THE CHAIR Later in the afternoon on Wednesday, the AOLS Council will lead the first session of the Open Forum, with the second session being held on Friday. Due to the high degree of interest in last year’s AOLS Panel’s concurrent sessions, this year we have replaced it with a Plenary session being led by Council. This will be an excellent opportunity to discuss issues of interest with Council. Wednesday evening will continue the tradition of the Veterans’ Dinner and the Welcoming Party. The Welcoming Party will be held in the exhibits hall. This year, the exhibits hall will include lounge areas and an area for vendor presentations. It is my privilege to welcome you to the 123rd Annual General Meeting of the Association of Ontario Land Surveyors in Huntsville, Ontario. The theme of this year’s meeting is “Building Our Geospatial Future”. The theme is a reflection on the propulsion of our profession into a world that is progressively more technology enabled and encompasses so much more than the traditional boundary survey. It also speaks to the need for our profession to be involved in building our own future in this progressive industry. This year’s AGM is shaping up to be better than ever! Several changes have been implemented into this year’s agenda. For the first time the meeting will start on Wednesday morning with the Opening Ceremonies beginning at 9am. This will be followed by commission reports and a special announcement by the Insurance Advisory Committee. On Wednesday afternoon, we will have the privilege of listening to our keynote speaker, James Boxall, Director of the GISciences Centre at Dalhousie University. James has published and presented widely on topics such as security, surveillance, health and climate change, and geospatial data policy, and has also been involved in several national organizations and projects related to geospatial information and technology. He will provide some valuable insight on the future of our profession. Thursday is our educational day. We have several educational sessions planned which vary in duration this year. These include presentations on Avoiding Complaints and Insurance Claims, along with presentations by esri Canada and Leica Geosystems Limited. Don’t forget to attend the Convocation Lunch and support our newly commissioned surveyors! Thursday evening will for the first time include the President’s Dinner and Dance, replacing the traditional President’s Luncheon, which was previously held on Friday. The role of the AOLS President is a very important, as well as time-consuming, and volunteer position. I encourage everyone to attend this dinner event to show their gratitude and support for our current President, Dasha Page, and to welcome our new President, Travis Hartwick. Awards and Citations will be presented during this event. The program on Friday morning will include our business meeting, and the second session of the Open Forum, again led by Council, followed by the closing ceremonies. I would like to remind you that your attendance at most of the events counts towards your Continuing Professional Development. Please see the Schedule of Events below for details on CPD hours and categories. I look forward to seeing you there.

KEYNOTE SPEAKER 1:00-1:45 pm Keynote Speaker - James Boxall, Director, GISciences Centre Dalhousie University James Boxall is the Director of the Dalhousie GISciences Centre. He has traveled and worked on spatial information projects around the world. His work has included projects in Vietnam, Mexico, and most parts of Canada and the U.S. He was a member of the Review Panel for the National Science Foundation Alexandria Digital Geospatial Library at the University of California, Santa Barbara. He has also been closely involved with local projects such as the HRM Sea Level Rise Report, The Lahave River Protection Project, and numerous health related work associated with access to services. He is on the review board for several journals and published widely in his field on topics from policy and law, to surveillance and climate change, health and education. He teaches geography and spatial information management at Dalhousie and holds appointments in the Faculties of Science, Management, and Architecture and Planning. He has been President of three National and Regional associations related to geography and has served on many academic and government boards, including the Geomatics Association of Nova Scotia, the Coastal and Ocean Information Network (COINAtlantic) and the GeoConnections (Federal program with Ministerial Appointment). In his spare time he has helped organize many local and national conferences, given numerous public lectures, and continues to work towards improving geography and geomatics in public schools. For his contributions, James was named a Fellow of the Royal Geographical Society with the Institute of British Geographers, as well as elected to the College of Fellows of the Royal Canadian Geographical Society. PRESENTATION: Innovation in Geomatics Services for the Consumer: If “Walmart Law” is here, can “Costco Surveys” be far behind? 1:45-2:30 pm Land Surveyors are rightfully concerned about their future. Questions about their role and the identity of their product or service may all be symptoms of other changes taking place in society. Using the recent development of legal services being made available in a “big box” store chain, this presentation will explore the extent to which similarities and differences may apply to surveying services. This leads to a consideration of how professional services are marketed so as to require them to become “commoditized”. The specifics of how some services in law are being transformed will be contrasted with the opportunities for other professional sectors – including geomatics. What is it about a professional service as a commodity that rewards the professional service provider with a fee? Moreover, what is it about a retracement survey plan as a graphic display of an opinion that would reward the land surveyor with a fee? As the lines between service delivery and “free” data access get even more blurred in the mind of the public, what innovations are called for? Are cadastral surveyors immune from revisiting their traditional platforms of professional service delivery as other professions try to re-invent themselves? Rather than finding a single answer, this presentation invites an engagement in a process of change – one that has already become apparent to many land surveyors in Ontario. It will conclude with a summary of items for further possible action. Izaak de Rijcke qualified as an Ontario Land Surveyor in 1978. He was called to the Bar in Ontario in 1983, and became a Certified Specialist in Real Estate Law in 2010. That year he also obtained the LL.M. degree from Osgoode Hall Law School. His private practices in law and cadastral surveying have focused on land title and boundary issues for land owners, municipalities, conservation authorities and government. He has taught the survey law courses at University of Toronto and is presently an Adjunct Professor in the Graduate Program in Earth & Space Science Engineering at York University where he continues to teach survey law using a blend of classroom and distance education methods. Recently, he was an Adjunct Professor at Osgoode Hall Law School where he taught first year Property. He is editor of the journal Geomatica and the free monthly e-newsletter called The Boundary Point. Izaak is a regular presenter of CPD for surveyors, lawyers and geomatics professionals through Four Point Learning across Canada and can be reached at [email protected].

GIS and the Importance of Information Presented by Barry Costello, esri Canada The Ontario geomatics industry is the authority for the creation, management and provision of spatial information in the province. Following a superb mid-day meal, the bus will make two stops for your choice of afternoon activities. The first will be in downtown Huntsville where the small town shops and boutiques offer many locally made items as well as specialty gift A recent article in IT World Canada quotes a Cisco Systems survey indicating that 40% of organizations believe inaccessibility and inability to interpret data is their biggest hurdle to achieving actionable insights from data. Location is a key ingredient in adding intelligence to data. “We have lots of data and not enough information.” That was a quote from a systems solutions manager in the Ministry of Transportation. Location analytics is the phrase used to add location to create information out of data. This paper starts with showcasing a couple of surprising examples of how spatial data is used in business and government. Using these examples there will be an exploration of the importance of getting the spatial data right and the role of the surveyor and the geomatics professional in that process. 2.
