Update: This event has been rescheduled from its original date of 24 February.
The SSSI 2021 Victorian Surveying & Spatial Summit will be an opportunity for all Victorian surveying and spatial professionals to come together to learn, share and connect. The theme will be ‘Digital Transformation: Our Future’.
The one-day event will take place at the Novotel on Collins, Melbourne, and will be followed in the evening by the presentation of the Victorian Asia-Pacific Spatial Excellence Awards — the Awards celebrate the outstanding work being undertaken by individuals and organisations in the region.
Discounts are available for SSSI members and students. You can choose to register just for the Summit or select full registration which includes a ticket to APSEA-V event as well. Tickets for APSEA-V only (individual or full table of 8) are also available.
There will also be a pre-summit breakfast on the topic of Diversity and Inclusion, and organisers encourage potential participants to consider purchasing a ticket when registering for the Summit.
LOCATE22 – THE GEOSPATIAL EVENT
24 – 26 MAY 2022
Hosted by Geoscience Australia
On behalf of the Locate Australia Conferences it is our pleasure to invite you to join us at Locate22, 24 – 26 May in Canberra, Australian Capital Territory.
Locate22 returns to the Nation’s Capital in the traditional format of a live event at the National Convention Centre Canberra (NCCC). With the ability to be COVID safe, within a socially distanced environment, the NCCC is the perfect venue for Australia’s premier spatial and surveying conference. Canberra brings an incomparable setting with iconic national attractions surrounding Lake Burley Griffin and the Parliamentary Triangle.
This year Locate22 will incorporate dedicated streams into the format of the conference. This will enable focused discussion from across industry sectors on how location technologies and practices are being used, highlighting the fundamental role they play in shaping Australia’s future.
Industry, government, non-profit and academics are demanding new opportunities for innovation, efficiency and improved responsiveness, particularly in location-based information. In the past year alone, we’ve seen how location information can provide societal, environmental and economic benefits to our communities. Recent national emergencies such as bushfires, drought, floods and COVID-19 all have long-term effects on our cities, towns, land, environment and people. These national, place-based challenges require collaborative solutions that must be data-driven, provide insightful analysis, and be easy for anyone, anywhere to use.
Location in Action is about how we learn, share and connect as a community and with end users to drive deeper insights and aid better decision-making powered through location data, science and technologies.
Come and join us in Canberra where you will have an opportunity to network with national and international colleagues, have direct access to industry and subject matter experts, see the newest technology, and be introduced to the newest ideas in the spatial and surveying sector.

The Australasian Hydrographic Society NZ Region, in conjunction with the Space & Spatial New Zealand Hydrography Stream, are holding a 1-day seminar on Friday, 8 July 2022 at the Miramar Golf Club, Wellington.
The seminar will align closely with the IHO’s World Hydrography Day theme “Hydrography – contributing to the United Nations Ocean Decade”.
Each year, the Locate conference attracts hundreds of national and international delegates from within and outside the spatial and surveying industry.
As Australia’s premier spatial and surveying conference, Locate provides guests with a unique opportunity to learn about the latest trends and applications in geospatial technologies.
Are you passionate about our industry and want to get involved? Maybe you have an idea for a local tour, or a project site visit or even have another event that can run in conjunction with Locate. This is your opportunity to help shape the 2023 event — no idea is too big or too small. Reach out to the organisers via info@locateconference.com or +61 2 4319 8519.
Hydrographers and all those with an interest in hydrography and related disciplines, are invited to attend a World Hydrography Day 2023 Seminar in Suva, Fiji, on 22 and 23 June.
The seminar will be held jointly by the Australasian Hydrographic Society and the Fiji Hydrographic Service. The venue will be the Moana Anglican Services and Teaching Centre at St John the Baptist Theological College.
The organisers are calling for potential sponsors and presenters to get in touch.
The theme for World Hydrography Day 2023 is ‘Hydrography: Contributing to the United Nations Ocean Decade’.
The seminar comes after a two-year pause due to the COVID pandemic and associated travel restrictions. It will provide an opportunity for professionals to network and share hydrospatial knowledge through presentations and discussion.
It is also intended that the presentations will highlight the empowerment of women within the hydrography field.
Registration is free but places are limited. Registrations must be secured by close of business, Tuesday, 20 June 2023.
The Institute of Navigation’s (ION) mid-year meeting, the International Technical Meeting (ITM), is a conference with a technical program related to positioning, navigation and timing and includes the ION Fellows and Annual Awards presentations.
In 2024, ITM will take place in Long Beach, California, January 22 – 25, 2024, and will be co-located with the Precise Time and Time Interval Systems and Applications Meeting.
A commercial exhibition and pre-conference tutorials will be held in conjunction with the conference.
The Institute of Navigation’s (ION) annual Precise Time and Time Interval Systems and Applications (PTTI) meeting will take place in Long Beach, California, January 22-25, 2024, and will be co-located with the ION International Technical Meeting.
The PTTI technical program is designed to:
- Disseminate and coordinate PTTI information at the user level
- Review present and future PTTI requirements
- Inform government and industry engineers, technicians, and managers of precise time and frequency technology and its problems, and
- Provide an opportunity for an active exchange of new technology associated with PTTI.
A commercial exhibition and pre-conference tutorials will be held in conjunction with the conference.
The Remote Hydrography conference and exhibition brings together manufacturers, operators, regulators, and research and development leaders from both industry and academia, within the field of remote surveying and uncrewed survey operations.
Remote Hydrography 2024 provides an opportunity to share experience gained in the development and application of autonomous and uncrewed platforms (surface, underwater, aerial and space-based) and the associated command and support services.
These and enabling technologies like machine learning and artificial intelligence will revolutionise workflows for hydrographic data collection, processing, analysis and presentation.
The Institute of Navigation’s (ION) Pacific PNT Conference is a global event dedicated to the cooperative development of positioning, navigation and timing technology and applications.
The conference attracts policy and technical leaders from Japan, Singapore, China, South Korea, Australia, the United States and many other countries, who meet to discuss policy updates, receive program status updates and exchange technical information.
The conference will cover a wide range of topics:
- GNSS policy/status
