During 2020 an expert group drafted the SPACE+SPATIAL Industry Growth Roadmap 2030 – a national snapshot for Australian professionals to better understand the bold new future that’s rapidly approaching and what it means for them, their careers, their organisations and all of Australia.
The National Steering Committee is seeking feedback on the Roadmap from spatial professionals of all levels across the country. There are a number of ways to get involved, one of which is to participate in this SSSI and SIBA|GITA SPACE+SPATIAL Roadmap Online Session.
You will hear about the key plans, activities and issues and have the opportunity to have a meaningful discussion with colleagues about your thoughts on the Roadmap Consultation Paper and the topic in general.

The Space Symposium attracts thousands of representatives of the space industry, governments, militaries, research agencies and more. The event brings all these groups together in one place to provide an opportunity to examine space issues from multiple perspectives, to promote dialog and to focus attention on critical space issues.
This year, the Space Symposium will be a hybrid in-person/virtual event, with the in-person sessions taking place in Boulder, Colorado, along with a vast exhibition display space which, this year, has been increased by 8,300 square metres.

The Future of Place Summit aims to be a day filled with critical discussion, knowledge sharing and networking around the intersection of people, place technology and data.
The event will focus on four themes:
- Designing for digital lifestyles — A new human-centred planning approach
- From precinct plans to development reality — The evolving digital and data DNA of urban growth
- Data-inspired discussions — Tapping into the real voice of the community
- Streets reimagined — The digital backbone for better experiences
Delegates can take part in person or via Zoom.
![15th Conference on Spatial Information Theory @ Kobe, Japan](https://www.spatialsource.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/LogoCosit.jpg?w=230)
The 15th International Conference on Spatial Information Theory, COSIT 2022, will be held in Kobe, Japan, 5 to 9 September, 2022. Established in 1993, the Conference on Spatial Information Theory (COSIT) is a biennial international conference series concerned with theoretical aspects of space and spatial information, aimed at advancing geographic information science and its emerging research frontiers.
The conference offers three (refereed) submission tracks with double-blind reviews: vision papers, full papers, and short papers. Embedded in the conference will also be an on-site mentoring program for doctoral students.
Contributions can cover a broad set of conference-relevant themes such as (but not limited to):
- activity-based models of spatial knowledge
- cognitive aspects of geographic information
- cognitive-behavioural geography, naive geography
- data-driven spatial information theory
- geo-ethics and geo-privacy
- events and processes in geographic space and time
- geographic information visualisation and geovisual analytics
- knowledge representation for space and time
- navigation and wayfinding of sentient beings and robots
- ontology of space and time
- place
- quality and interoperability of geographic information
- social and cultural organisation of space
- spatial and temporal language
- spatial aspects of social networks
- spatial decision support, impact of model design
- spatial (digital) humanities
- theory-driven spatial machine learning, artificial intelligence of space
- theories on volunteered geographic information
- theory and practice of spatial and temporal reasoning
- user interfaces, virtual spaces and collaborative spaces

Since the establishment of Scott Base on Ross Island by the late Sir Edmund Hillary in 1957, surveyors have been appointed to assist scientists with survey related tasks on the ice.
This presentation by a panel of Antarctic surveyors promises to be educational, entertaining and informative, as they talk about their experiences on projects on the frozen continent over the last 35-plus years.
