The BYDA Utility Safety Conference will take place from 4 to 5 March, 2026 at the RACV Club, Melbourne. This conference is where Australia’s utility, construction and geospatial sectors come together to share knowledge, challenge old ways of working, and explore new ideas that make the industry safer and smarter.
On show will be BYDA’s Digital Utility Portal, which is moving from proof-of-concept into the next phase of development. The portal is showing how digital data sharing can dramatically reduce manual rework, improve accuracy, and give planners and engineers the real-time insight they need to prevent strikes.

The International Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing’s (ISPRS) XXV Congress will be held in Toronto, Canada, from 4 to 11 July 2026. This will be the first ISPRS Congress to held in Canada since the event in Ottawa in 1972, so it will be an historic occasion.
The event will bring together researchers, practitioners and industry leaders from around the globe to explore the latest advancements, trends and applications in photogrammetry and remote sensing.
The theme of the Congress, From Imagery to Understanding, captures the role of ISPRS and its scientific activities, and will culminate in a legacy project to create materials that can be used by the ISPRS community to better promote to funding agencies and others the important role that it plays in the world’s economic and environmental activities.
The Congress will run in parallel with the 47th Canadian Symposium on Remote Sensing (CSRS).
The abstract submission deadline has been extended to 17 November 2025, and early bird registration is now available.
