Austin, TX
November 17 - 19, 2026
Back for year two, the Phoenix LiDAR SOAR event builds on the momentum of last year’s inaugural event, which featured live manned-aircraft airborne LiDAR demonstrations with a RANGER-U120 on a Robinson R44 helicopter and the RANGER-U240 on a Cessna 182, bringing together attendees from across the geospatial industry representing a wide range of companies and organizations. This year’s event will feature expanded networking opportunities, more live demonstrations, vendor presentations, and hands-on experiences across mobile mapping, UAV, and manned airborne LiDAR workflows—all in Austin, Texas.
