The Association of Public Authority Surveyors (APAS) 2026 Conference will be held in the quaint but bustling Southern Tablelands town of Bowral.
The theme of the conference is ‘Now that’s a boundary!’, which references the fact that Bowral is where the famous cricketer Sir Donald Bradman grew up and also that it is home to the Bradman Museum & International Cricket Hall of Fame.
For those who have had abstracts accepted, the next deadlines are: Draft paper deadline: Friday, 14 November 2025; final paper deadline: Friday, 16 January 2026.
APAS is a non-profit organisation that brings together surveyors and closely allied spatial information professionals employed by public authorities in both New South Wales and the Australian Capital Territory.
