LAND TITLE INFORMATION We recognize the significant burden of collecting historic land title information, as well as the importance of related documents to conduct a land survey. We are focusing all efforts of this prize on the technological progress and innovation specifically as it pertains to the land surveying component. As such, any leg work required for teams to acquire historical documents in order to perform a survey does not need to be calculated in the overall time or human intervention factors of this challenge.
DEMO DAY o Judges will review all Prototype Phase Submissions, and select up to 3 Finalist teams. o Finalist teams will be invited to attend a Demo Day event held at The William Warren Group headquarters located in Santa Monica, California. o The William Warren Group will host an in-person survey to be conducted at a storage facility in the greater Los Angeles area. o If teams are unable to attend the event, they must be able to send all required equipment to The William Warren Group headquarters, complete with a detailed set of instructions for a 3rd party, neutral operator to perform the required survey. o The Grand Prize Winner will receive $70,000 and the two other Finalist teams will be reimbursed with $5,000 to help cover the costs of travel, and serve as an award for Finalist placement.
PROTOTYPE PHASE PRIZES The Grand Prize winner will receive up to $70,000 and up to two other finalists will receive $5,000
