In May 2024 we’re excited to have members of our team attending two major industry events – the Geospatial Council of Australia’s Locate24 in Sydney and PIA’s Planning Congress in Melbourne.
We’ll have an exhibition booth at both events, where you can meet experts from our team and learn more about how we can support your work and research. We’ll also be presenting at various sessions across both conferences, with details below!
AURIN at Locate24 (Sydney, 7–9 May)
Wednesday 8 May, 1.15pm
‘Converging paths – digital twin journeys across the nation’
AURIN Director Pascal Perez will chair this session on digital twins, a subject we’re incredibly excited about.
Over the next five-year period AURIN aims to lead a national community, focused on establishing the foundations for Australia’s Urban Digital Twins, to address climate change, energy transition, and changing demographics.
If you’re engaged in these thematic areas, or are working or seeking to work with digital twins, we’d love to have you join the conversation! You can learn more about the Urban Digital Twins Community here.
