The 2024 Pacific Islands GIS & Remote Sensing Users Conference is reputably the largest GIS and remote sensing conference attended by Pacific Islanders, who leverage this annual opportunity to network and pursue partnerships with practitioners from around the globe.
The conference spotlights the latest innovative technologies, promotes knowledge and capacity development and sharing of best practices, and attracts a gathering of more than 300 attendees.
The theme for the 2024 event will be ‘Sustainable management of coastal areas through remote sensing and GIS.’
The Australian Local Government Association will host a national congress on roads and infrastructure from 3 to 4 December 2024, in Margaret River, Western Australia.
The congress is aimed at mayors, shire presidents, councillors, CEOs, general managers and local government engineers and works managers, and typically includes sessions on road funding, road safety and heavy vehicle access.
There is also usually a focus on community infrastructure, encompassing renewable energy deployment and integration, innovations in active transport, waste and recycling, affordable housing and resilient telecommunications.
