SDB Day 2019
The International Forum on Satellite-Derived Bathymetry 2019
Esteemed speakers and guests from hydrographic offices, marine industry, service providers and research institutes around the world will gather for Australia’s first SDB Day in May 2019.
Satellite Derived Bathymetry (SDB) is a method for providing high-resolution water depth data in shallow water environments. These waters are notoriously difficult and expensive to access. The method combines satellite imagery with advanced algorithms to provide affordable and accurate data, and all within a relatively quick turnaround time.
The forum addresses the urgent need for both users and producers of SDB to jointly discuss capabilities, standards, data integration and handling uncertainties in its application.

The 2024 Pacific Islands GIS & Remote Sensing Users Conference is reputably the largest GIS and remote sensing conference attended by Pacific Islanders, who leverage this annual opportunity to network and pursue partnerships with practitioners from around the globe.
The conference spotlights the latest innovative technologies, promotes knowledge and capacity development and sharing of best practices, and attracts a gathering of more than 300 attendees.
The theme for the 2024 event will be ‘Sustainable management of coastal areas through remote sensing and GIS.’
