Speaker highlight: Dr. James Bradfield Moody

By on 23 February, 2012
 
Dr. James Bradfield Moody, Executive Director of Development at the CSIRO, is just one of many exciting speakers to appear at GeoNext next week.
 
Dr. Moody will discuss the next wave of innovation: the convergence of digital and natural.
 
Since the Industrial Revolution, the tide of progress has ebbed and flowed: five distinct waves, each starting with disruptive new technologies and ending with a global depression, have transformed our industries, societies and economies almost beyond recognition. We are now on the cusp of another massive transformation – the sixth wave of innovation.
 
In this wave, powerful new markets will drive a shift away from resource dependence to a new way of life: resource efficiency. Waste will be a source of opportunity and nature a source of inspiration. And it will also unleash a spectacular boom in technology, using spatial information, remote sensing and sensor networks to see a convergence of the digital and natural worlds.
 
GeoNext will be held on the 29 February 2012, and aims to bridge the gap between the traditional and new worlds of GIS and location.
