spatial@gov is the only geospatial event organised in conjunction with the peak organisations in Australia and New Zealand representing the public, private, research and professional sectors of the spatial community; including ANZLIC—the Spatial Information Council (representing all governments of Australia and New Zealand), and the German Government (through global associate Deutsche Messe AG).
Geospatial technology is integral in every corner of the business world and across government, with up to 80 per cent of information connected to a specific location in some way. By contributing over $12 billion to the Australian GDP, the geospatial industry is a key player in the nation's new economy.
In 2011 the spatial@gov program will examine the role of geospatial technologies in disaster management, defence operations, the impact of greater access to public sector information and various other applications.
spatial@gov will build on the success and momentum of last year. The event will align the spatial capabilities of the three tiers of government and highlight the uses and benefits of location to assist government develop policy, deliver programs, enhance service delivery and streamline business practices.
