RapidMap has been awarded the Environmental Sustainability Award at the 2023 Institute of Public Works Engineering Australasia (IPWEA) Engineering Excellence Awards.

In a statement, the company said that “This remarkable recognition not only demonstrates our unwavering commitment to environmental stewardship but also underscores our dedication to promoting sustainability within the engineering industry”.

RapidMap works closely with biosecurity officers in local government and other local control agencies across several states and territories, integrating the Iconyx Summit Workforce Management System with GNSS technology.

“For nearly three decades, RapidMap spatial technology experts have been collaborating with government agencies and industry leaders to tackle the complex issue of weed infestation surveillance and control,” the company said.

“Latest innovations in AI, drones, GNSS and airborne herbicide deployment are reshaping the landscape and enabling us to protect critical infrastructure, agriculture, parks and open spaces more effectively than ever before.

“We remain steadfast in our mission to revolutionise the engineering landscape by continually developing innovative solutions and integrating environmentally conscious approaches.”
