Aerial Mapping Expert Witnesses
Start Aerial Mapping Expert Search
Aerial mapping expert witness candidates typically have industry experience and backgrounds in surveying, aerial photography, and/or geographic information system technology (GIS).
Aerial photography has a been used for cartography since the 1920’s. Current technology for aerial imagery includes aerial photogrammetry, LiDAR, and drone technology. In addition to traditional mapping and land surveying, aerial mapping is used for environmental site analysis and even archeology.
Often, matters requiring aerial mapping expert witness services involve intellectual property, such as patent infringement litigation in court, inter partes review in the PTAB, copyright or trade secret disputes.
Litigation support by an aerial mapping expert could include analysis, reverse engineering, deposition, expert report, and expert witness testimony at a trial. In a high-profile case, or litigation involving a significant financial stake, a law firm may request a qualified expert with prior expert witness experience. In addition, clients may seek an industry expert in aerial photographs for pre-litigation consulting work. An expert witness needs to not only have expertise in the subject, an expert witness must possess the ability to explain evidence to a juror.
Cahn Litigation Services has completed numerous searches for an expert witness in the aerial mapping area, providing candidates for each case to the specifications provided by the attorney in charge. Whether it’s for a patent case or for pre-litigation reverse engineering work, Cahn Litigation Services has the experience required to turn the search around quickly and provide the right balance of expertise and testimony to hone in on the perfect expert for the job at hand.
