BMI Showcases Innovative Digital Solutions at 2025 Geomatics Conference

The BMI Imaging Systems team was delighted to participate in the prestigious 2025 CSU Fresno Geomatics Conference held this January in California. This significant event for land surveying professionals was organized by Fresno State's Geomatics Engineering Club, bringing together industry leaders, experienced professionals, and students eager to learn and network.

During this gathering, BMI took the opportunity to unveil its comprehensive digital archive of historic land records, which covers 39 counties in California and select regions in Arizona and Nevada. These digital archives are game-changers for land professionals, as they can dramatically enhance operational efficiency and significantly reduce the time needed for property research.

Mike Aufranc, BMI's Vice President and Sales Representative, articulated the importance of the conference by stating, "The CSU Fresno Geomatics Conference allows us to establish connections with the surveying community and demonstrate how our digital solutions can streamline their processes. By converting historic land documents into digital formats and granting access to our databases, we do more than just preserve essential information—we empower surveyors to retrieve crucial data rapidly and efficiently. This fundamentally boosts their productivity and improves their overall effectiveness at work."

Attendance at the 2025 CSU Fresno Geomatics Conference was more than just a chance to showcase innovative solutions; it was a reaffirmation of BMI's commitment to responding to the evolving needs of land surveyors and other professionals. The event also served as a platform for BMI to reinforce relationships with existing clients while fostering new connections within the surveying industry.
