From the meeting
ODOT renamed the Office of CADD & Mapping Services to the Office of Geospatial and Engineering Technologies, effective July 1, 2026. The notice tied the new name to next-gen workflows like digital twins and building information modeling (BIM) and said a revamped resource-first website was coming. That signals a broader modernization push around geospatial tools, workflow support, and public-facing digital resources.
