Registrations are now open for Ozri 2020, which has transformed into a ‘free, virtual information sharing experience’.
As Australia adjusts to a Covid-19 reality, Esri’s annual mammoth spatial conference has adapted, with the 2020 event redefined as virtual and free to attend.
Esri Australia promises that the 2020 event will equip attendees with short, sharp and immediately useable information in a combination of live and on-demand streamed sessions, in a diverse program of global and local SMEs, experts and users.
In a refreshing twist, comedy greats Arj Barker and Ben Price will give guest appearances and their take on the geospatial world.
