Thanks to location-based analytics, you can search this world map to find out where Australia imports food from. Learn more Data-driven decisions The role of 3D data in emergency response The use of three-dimensional (3D) data, combined with other spatial data may hold the key to the future of emergency calls - but are Australian authorities harnessing its full potential? Learn more Data-driven decisions How mapping technology can help catch killers Mike King outlines how investigators can use Geographic Information System (GIS) technology to combine location-based data, public information and suspect profiling data, to help catch killers. Learn more Data-driven decisions Combatting drug-related deaths with GIS US law enforcement expert Mike King outlines how authorities are using location intelligence to report drug activity, educate the community, promote treatment options and understand the effectiveness of response activities. Learn more Data-driven decisions How mapping technology is helping solve crimes Emergency services expert Mike King shares how one US law enforcement agency used real-time GIS applications to manage the search of a large-scale crime scene in a missing persons case. Learn more Data-driven decisions GIS and data science: two sides of the same coin If data scientists analyse data to uncover insights that help improve bottom lines, then what have GIS professionals been doing for years? Learn more Data-driven decisions Drones in agriculture - how to get started Getting the best results from drones on a farm depends on the desired outcomes and the type of sensors mounted on the drone. Before starting, it pays to find answers to the most common questions about using drones and satellite imagery in agriculture. Learn more Digital transformation The modern land parcel solution future-proofing South Australia's cadastre South Australia's Land Boundaries Group shares how an out-of-the-box technology solution has boosted their land parcel management productivity by up to 80%. Learn more Digital transformation Top 5 mining geospatial tech trends A new wave of automation is improving worker safety, raising productivity, and reducing operational costs in Australia's mining operations. See how advanced geospatial technology is helping organisations improve efficiencies at all levels organisation-wide. Learn more Data-driven decisions Students use GIS to track cattle movements A new program has launched in Australia where students use GIS technology to track herd movement and work with emerging agri-tech to bridge the digital divide. Learn more Data-driven decisions Virtual Reality for smart cities and urban planning Virtual Reality (VR) is transforming the way citizens and city administrators interact with new developments, through the unique perspective of 3D models that show what the eye cannot see. Learn more Data-driven decisions Cleaning the Gulf of Mexico using GIS The clean-up efforts following the Deepwater Horizon oil spill is an example of how GIS technology can be used to assist in disaster response. Learn more Data-driven decisions Geoscience Australia releases MH370 search data Story Map The search for Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 mapped more than 700,000 square kilometres of seafloor. Data from phase one of the search is now available to the public through an interactive Story Map.
