Join Bentley Systems at the launch of what it says is the industry’s most complete Survey and Site Design Solution ever offered to the ANZ market.

As technology advances and industry expectations increase, your software needs to keep pace with this ever-changing environment. In short, your software needs to deliver on today’s requirements and be ready for tomorrow’s challengers.

If you work in road design, site surveying, site development and related fields, this webinar is for you.

Throughout the launch, Bentley Systems will demonstrate traditional survey data capture capabilities, coupled with the latest mass data collection survey methods, including Total Station techniques, Point Cloud techniques and Digital Photogrammetry techniques.

Leveraging the above survey results, the launch will continue through a typical site design workflow, incorporating aspects such as:

• Terrain creation and analysis
• Urban road widening design
• Carpark and recreational area design
• Drainage and Utility design and analysis
• Plan production and digital model delivery
• Model visualisation

Air Inspect Australia will also be joining the webinar to share their insights and learnings of their project.

If you or your company perform any of the above-mentioned workflows, then this is one webinar you should not miss.

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.

The presenters for this topical webinar will be Dr Craig Roberts, Senior Lecturer in Surveying/GPS/Geodesy at UNSW and Wayne Patterson Director, Spatial Operations at the NSW Department of Customer Service.

Roberts will give a short update on the revision of the Australian Standard, AS_5488 Classification of subsurface utility information in the context of datum modernisation, low-cost multi-GNSS and recent advances in positioning infrastructure in Australia.

Data storage, data distribution and security are identified as challenges suggesting a reimagined data governance will be needed. Could a spatial digital twin assist? What is a spatial digital twin? Is it a BIM? Where does it come from? What is an open data policy? Who can use it? Can I use it? Which datum? How accurate is the data?

Rather than just another PowerPoint webinar, Roberts will interview Patterson in a free-flowing format. Attendees will be invited to ask their own questions live in the chat as the conversation evolves.

This webinar is targeted at surveyors, geospatial users, students and the wider spatial community.

The ITS Australia Summit 2022 in Brisbane will feature a strong industry program over three days driven by abstract submissions & invited keynote presentations, and will include technical tours & demonstrations, cutting edge industry exhibition, workshops, panel discussions, and an exciting social program.

As Australia’s leading transport technology event, Summit will demonstrate new insights and initiatives that will determine our path toward an accessible and automated future transport network.

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

The 2022 SSSI NSW Regional Conference will be held on Thursday 10 November and Friday 11 November 2022 at the Novotel Sydney Central. The theme will be ‘Connections’.

This regular event is an opportunity to learn from and connect with other SSSI members and the broader geospatial community.

The first day will comprise the main conference, with speakers presenting on various topics, followed by the NSW & ACT Asia-Pacific Spatial Excellence Awards dinner in the evening.

The second day will be a NSW Spatial Digital Twin workshop, an interactive session that will get ‘under the bonnet,’ looking at data sharing, use cases and more.

The Call for Abstracts will close at midday on Monday, 26 September 2022. Abstract proposals can be submitted online at https://lnkd.in/ek4xS6Bu.

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.
