SICC Webinar: Reporting and Measuring Bushfire Mitigation Work, a Software Pilot
Apr 28 @ 12:30 pm – 1:30 pm
SICC Webinar: Reporting and Measuring Bushfire Mitigation Work, a Software Pilot

Eugene Lamnek created GeoIT Solutions in 2002, and has been developing ArcGIS customizations, add-ins and applications ever since. In this time Eugene has developed numerous bushfire applications for the CFS and the CFA as well as water and wastewater modelling software, asset management applications and interfaces, and open source applications for numerous clients including SA Water, Santos and DEW.

The Treatment Reporting System (TRS) currently in pilot phase, will allow organisations to store and manage their bushfire mitigation tasks, as well as measuring these tasks against the requirements of the Bushfire Management Area Plans (BMAPs). The system will allow users to store bushfire mitigation tasks, their spatial extent, values of work, time of work and completion status. Tasks are mapped and measured against required actions, defined by within the CFS BMAPs. The TRS will provide an effective mechanism for reporting the adequacy of on ground mitigation work (potentially at a State-wide level) by measuring mitigation work against well-defined mitigation targets. Users of the system will include local government, state government, private organisations and potentially even individual landholders.

SSSI & HEI Webinar – Environmental Applications of Spatial Technologies
Apr 29 @ 5:00 pm – 6:00 pm
SSSI & HEI Webinar - Environmental Applications of Spatial Technologies

SSSI in conjunction with the Hunter Environmental Institute will present this webinar with three pre-eminent speakers:

Amy Steiger (Cardno)

Title: RPAS and thermal cameras for wildlife detection post-bushfire and coastal monitoring

Details: Amy has promoted the use of Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems (RPAS) gaining experience with remote data capture to cover a range of coastal, environmental and land development applications.

RPAS thermal inspection capability was deployed this summer in wildlife detection post-bushfires.

Amy has also done volumetric surveys of beaches and flown isolated coastal cliff faces in NSW to capture high-resolution photography and derived photogrammetric models to identify geotechnical hazards and contribute to coastal monitoring.

Charity Mundava (WaterNSW)

Title: Remote Sensing in Water Management

Details: Charity will discuss the use of GIS and remote sensing to support water catchment management, feasibility and environmental studies for critical water infrastructure across the state and to support ongoing research into and management of river catchments. Charity will touch on the significance and spatial support for this in the recent NSW bushfires coordinating reservoir availability (in drought) and access for helicopter water drops and supporting bushfire fighting efforts.

Associate Professor In-Young Yeo (University of Newcastle)

Title: Remote sensing and GIS applications for water resources management

Details: Dr Yeo will explain how remote sensing can be used as a technique for assessing soil moisture using multi-source data fusion approaches, vegetation monitoring and water requirement with remote sensing and water balance approach.

She will explain the impacts of conservation management practices in agricultural catchments assessed using catchment model and remote sensing/GIS drawing on examples from Australian and American case studies
