JOIN OVER 500 SURVEYORS IN THE LAND DOWN UNDER
It is anticipated that over 500 surveyors across Asia Pacific region will attend this international congress and this will include surveyors from across SE Asia, The Pacific, Australia and New Zealand. The conference will focus on how surveying remains relevant to the needs of society through working collaboratively to meet the future technical, social and environmental challenges in digitally connected surroundings.
This is the first time since Fremantle in 1999, that Australia has hosted a joint international congress with the ASEAN Flag Surveying nations. SEASC 2019 DARWIN is a fantastic opportunity for all Surveyors in the Asia Pacific to demonstrate leadership in their field and share knowledge in one the fastest growing regions of the world.
The Congress is open to all professionals across various disciplines and will strive to have the Territorian spirit of unity and active participation in a friendly and casual atmosphere. Save $330 when you register before May 2019 for this 3-4 day Congress. A major trade exhibit is planned for the event which will attract the latest in surveying technology from the region and the world.
Surveying and Spatial Sciences Institute (SSSI) is now looking to members of all surveying industry and professional associations from across the region to join with them to organise an outstanding trade exhibit and technical and social program for delegates and visitors for this unique opportunity for surveyors in our region.
If your organisation would like to be a part of this opportunity, please contact Robert Sarib of the SSSI Land Surveying Commission.
The Technical Program Team has been drawn from the many disciplines from across the surveying and spatial sciences and has a wealth of experience, unique talents, and ideas but more importantly understands the needs of delegates. This mix of experience will ensure we provide a relevant and vibrant program for delegates that will include symposia, panel sessions and workshops.
We are aiming to provide a collaborative forum where professionals from the various disciplines can share ideas and further their knowledge especially in the areas where there is integration, synergy and shared vision. In order to develop and deliver content that is relevant and of benefit and interest to delegates we are seeking 3-4 ‘hot’ or highly relevant topics from you that we can consider for inclusion in the program.
We also welcome your ideas for technical topics that integrate our various disciplines and /or themes for workshops or forums; think different – fusion of disruptive technologies, creative solutions, breakthrough innovation, and cross-disciplinary collaboration and learning.
We look forward to your contribution!

Join us at this breakfast and learn as we take a look at how Bentley continues to break down barriers and streamline multidisciplinary design with its recently launched OpenBuildings Station Designer CONNECT Edition. OpenBuildings Station Designer supports the design, analysis, visualisation and simulation of new or existing rail, metro or other transit stations with asset-specific content and workflows.
With the incorporation of industry leading simulation software LEGION, within OpenBuildings Station Designer, designers can model and simulate pedestrian scenarios and thereby support improving functional use of space, wayfinding strategies, and passenger experience and throughput. LEGION can be applied to sport stadiums, airports, shopping malls, and virtually and other place where people converge.
Furthermore, keeping in line with Bentley’s Open modelling environment, OpenBuildings Station Designer enables iterative digital workflows spanning Bentley’s Connected Data Environments.
All this makes OpenBuildings Station Designer a powerful solution to consider for your next project. Reserve your seat today.
In this event, you will learn about:
- Key industry trends and how you can leverage them
- Key capabilities of OpenBuildings Station Designer and how it can be applied to various building projects
- Pedestrian modelling and simulation using LEGION
- Working with other disciplines and leveraging Bentley’s open connected data environment.

The FARO 3D Technology Seminar is series of seminars that is a spin-off from the FARO 3D User Conference, the latter being a leading event for the B2B 3D laser scanning community in Asia Pacific. In 2019, following the FARO 3D User Conference to be held in China in July, FARO is also hosting these Technology Seminars in Australia, India, and Japan.
As digital technologies have become all-pervasive, companies have been exploring ways to realize the potential of digitization globally. The geospatial community is not new to digitization, and similarly, it has been driven to evaluate the effectiveness of maximizing the efficiencies of digitization.
Responding to the industry’s needs, the upcoming FARO 3D Technology Seminars will be centred around the theme of ‘Constructing a Digital Future’, where the community will come together to look at further integrating digitization into its workflows.
In the same vein, FARO is also looking to bridge the physical and digital divide, by creating greater efficiencies in the construction lifecycle of ‘Design, Build, and Operate’. The FARO Traceable Construction™ concept is an ecosystem of FARO products and solutions that enable AEC professionals to work within an informed construction lifecycle environment. Offering a seamless transition across stages where reality data is needed, Traceable Construction™ matches each need with a product from FARO’s suite of solutions.
The FARO 3D Technology Seminar is yet another avenue where FARO strives to share expertise, applications and know-how with the geospatial community, and to create networking as well as business opportunities for delegates attending. Delegates can look forward to gaining deeper insight on FARO solutions through presentations and demonstrations by our technical experts. FARO looks forward to facilitating the development of valuable business relationships and connecting 3D communities!
WHY ATTEND
FARO 3D Technology Seminar shall be an exclusive platform to gather 3D user community in the Asia Pacific region with the following objectives:
Showcase the latest 3D products and technology solutions
Share expertise, applications, and know-how
Provide networking opportunities
Provide opportunities for face-to-face interaction
Create new businesses
WHO SHOULD ATTEND
C-Level, Directors, Managers, Professional, Engineers & Consultants from:
Architecture
