In this episode of The Spatial Connection, I talk with Steve Kasten, Vice President of Surveying and Photogrammetry at Bowman Consulting.

Steve takes us on a journey through his career in cartography, photogrammetry, and surveying — from his first spark of interest in high school geography class, to working with the Defense Mapping Agency, to becoming a licensed land surveyor and Vice President at Surdex. Along the way, he shares stories of early mapping technology, government training programs, mentorship, and the evolution from analog tools to digital geospatial systems. It’s a fascinating look at the people, challenges, and innovations that helped shape modern geospatial science.
