Learn more Data-driven decisions A winning formula for land management Look inside the QLD Department of Environment and Science's land use mapping program - spanning over 20 years of history for the state - integrating computer vision, remote sending, machine learning and automation. Learn more Digital transformation The technical leap in GIS field apps for mobility Lightning-fast offline capabilities of GIS field apps are bringing new capabilities to mobile teams, able to communicate real-time information organisation-wide from the field. 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 Esri Young Scholar 2017 - a year in review Since winning the Australian Esri Young Scholars Award in 2017, Alan Pearse has been working on several projects as well as getting stuck in to his university studies. We caught up with him to chat about what he's been working on over the last year, and what's on the horizon. Learn more Data-driven decisions WA Deepwater Horizon emergency simulation Exercise Ningaloo Challenge was Australia's largest-ever offshore oil spill emergency exercise. ArcGIS allowed responders to work from a common operating system enabling them to manage and analyse data in real time. Learn more Data-driven decisions The Sturt Gorge web map transforming conservation efforts What began as a spatial solution to a problem for an organisation with a limited budget quickly evolved into a blueprint for a wide-reaching conservation tool that could transform parks management and conservation. Learn more Business analytics Gaining insights from multidimensional data The world is a huge, constantly changing system that is as unpredictable as it is beautiful. Through advanced scientific technology we can record information about our planet in near real-time. Learn more Data-driven decisions Esri Young Scholar's journey to the 2017 Esri UC in San Diego Esri Young Scholar award winner Alan Pearse from the Queensland University of Technology shares his experience in San Diego at the world's largest GIS event. Learn more Digital transformation IOT trends driving transformation in the APAC utilities sector Increased pressure on gas and electricity utilities to meet financial and customer service expectations makes IOT and geospatial analytics technology essential to future success. Learn more Digital transformation Esri Young Scholars Award winner: bridging gap between theory and practice Queensland University of Technology research assistant and third-year B.Sc student Alan Pearse developed IDW-Plus, an ArcGIS tool to calculate land use impact on stream health. Learn more Disruptive innovation Geoscape: Australia's National 3D Dataset See how Geoscape, Australia's world-leading 3D Geographic Information System (GIS) dataset, makes maps with unprecedented detail and depth, creating new business and policy opportunities across the country. Learn more Disruptive innovation Driving through roadblocks with GIS innovation Asset managers are using GIS technology to share data and collaborate on public works, leading to less disruption and reduced costs. Learn more Disruptive innovation 3D GIS technology: Australia's renewable energy future 3D GIS technology is helping a team from ANU map potential sites for a carbon-free renewable energy solution using a pumped hydro model that relies on wind and solar photovoltaic energy. Learn more Disruptive innovation If you're not using GIS mobile apps, you're not working efficiently The concepts of real-time and mobility are key to creating integrated systems and achieving connectivity. This has made GIS mobile apps a valuable and versatile tool for the evolving modern company. Learn more Digital transformation Solidifying geospatial science as a smart career choice With GIS now seen as essential to making informed business and government decisions, the annual Esri Young Scholars Award is playing a vital role in promoting geospatial science as a career choice. Learn more Data-driven decisions Understand the essential elements to building smart communities Smart communities are safe, healthy, liveable, prosperous and well run. Stabilising these common traits are five core capabilities. Learn more Data-driven decisions A Young Scholar's UC experience The 2016 award recipient put his work in front of the global GIS community - gaining knowledge, making connections, and taking in all that San Diego has to offer. Read about Iurii Shendryk's once-in-a-lifetime trip to the world's biggest spatial event. Learn more Data-driven decisions Mapping environmental change for maximum impact Salmon have returned to a Washington river after the removal of two century-old dams, and a stunning new map has documented this fresh chapter for the Elwha.
