Marco Cecala: projects can run like clockwork
Marco Cecala, president of Take-off Professionals, based in the state of Arizona, will show attendees to this year’s HxGN Live in Las Vegas how to make a project run like clockwork using Computer Aided Design – CAD – and data in field.

Take-off Professionals has been preparing 3D models for clients for more than 15 years, riding the wave of modelling since its inception.

7121 Hexagon’s HxGN Live international users’ conference, from June 1-4, will be an event not to miss if 3D machine control is an essential part of your business operation or just on your horizon. Attendees will experience break-out sessions, keynote speakers and presentations of real-life examples of how to get the most out of 3D machine control as part of wider geospatial technologies.

Keynote speakers will include Ola Rollén, Hexagon president and chief executive, who will address the role information technologies play in fuelling curiosity and materialising imagination into action. Rollén will highlight aspects of Hexagon’s portfolio, empowering business and industry to discover, answer, refine and, ultimately, innovate.

Following Rollén will be Doug Menuez, a photographic journalist who captured the stories, struggles, failures and sacrifices of the pathfinders of Silicon Valley and their quests to invent the impossible. He will share first-hand accounts of what it takes to be fearless – a fearless genius.

Individual presentations will include Tim Tometich, project manager and estimator with Manatts construction company, based in Iowa state, illustrating how Manatts uses date technology through 265 Leica Geosystems 3DMC and Construction products to make the company competitive.

Tometich will discuss machine control applications to increase productivity and add value to the company’s work. Topics will range from Stringless Paving, Trimming and Milling, to GPS grading, mapping and even project estimating/management. He will focus on the contractor's view of using Leica Geosystems products.
