The National Surveying Congress will be an opportunity for leaders in the surveying profession to discuss the opportunities and challenges facing the profession. The 2022 Congress theme is ‘Automatic Mutual Relaxation’.

As the profession comes to understand the impact of Automatic Mutual Recognition for surveyors across the country, the event will provide an opportunity for surveyors from across Australia to gather and discuss the issues facing the profession and the opportunities for the future. The highlight of the program each year is the Cadastral Leaders Panel which sees all the Surveyors-General on stage speaking about changes and opportunities in their states and territories as well as an update from ICSM and ANZLIC. There will also be an online option.

The National Surveying Consultancy Excellence Awards and Gala Dinner will be held on the second day of the event, 23 June 2022.

Now in its 24th year, the NSW Excellence in Surveying and Spatial Information Awards recognise the achievements of organisations and individuals from across the state who are engaged in the surveying and spatial information profession.

Over the years, a wide range of entries from small to large businesses within government departments, educational institutions and the private sector, have been recipients of the awards.

The Organising Committee invites you to take the opportunity to be recognised for your achievements and to participate in the 2022 Awards with fellow staff, clients and partners.

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

Building and Sustaining your Data Foundations 

Strong data foundations are an essential requirement for the effective management of asset information and decision-making. Data needs to be accessible to organisations and their supply chain, to enable them to understand what information they have and need, what data can be upcycled sustainably, where data is located and who has access to it. To create good foundations that allow organisations to have confidence in their data, the quality, management and maintenance of that data is critical. Join us to find out more! 

We look forward to welcoming you,
The 1Spatial Team

The organisers are seeking papers and presentations on a variety of topics, such as:

• technical innovation, spatial aps, cloud computing, survey innovation, RPAS
• data analytics, crowd sourcing, machine learning, artificial intelligence, automation, data partnerships
• surveying -—land, cadastral, hydrographic, aerial survey, engineering
• 3D, digital engineering, LiDAR, reality meshes, BIM
• mobility, emergency management, spatial digital twins, environment, community, smart cities, utilities, coastal management, climate change
• convergence of space and spatial

Registrations are now open online for the conference, dinner and workshop at https://lnkd.in/eVSxGWeB.

The event’s Principal and Major sponsors are the NSW Department of Customer Services–Spatial Services and TAFE NSW.

The Institution of Surveyors NSW’s annual conference is back and will be moving around the state, starting in 2023 in Newcastle.

Not only is the location changing, but also the date, having been moved out of school holidays to allow more flexibility for parents.

Stay tuned for more details.

The Country Surveyors Association of NSW Easter Conference 2023 will be held at the Novotel Sydney Central in Haymarket, Sydney, on 23 and 24 March 2023.

The annual conference is well attended by many surveyors, both members and non-members of the Association. Over the past 40 years have been held as far west as Broken Hill and Deniliquin, north to Armidale and Port Macquarie, south to Albury and Wagga Wagga and more centrally at places like Orange, Katoomba, Gosford and Nowra. These family orientated events have led to many enduring friendships across the whole of New South Wales.
