EMSINA@AFAC22
Friday
Description: Through full presentations, lightning talks and facilitated discussions, EMSINA will present examples of the use and the growing demands of mapping and location technologies as applied in these past emergencies within the emergency services organisations, Local/State/Federal Governments and to feed public information demands.
During this professional development opportunity, you will see presentations from our Emergency Service Organisations and Government from across Australia along with some of the major vendors of location technologies. We will hear about how their systems held up to demand, what could have been better and most important we will focus on what the future holds from these learnings in an ever-increasing need for spatial in modern digital solutions.
This program is coordinated by the Emergency Management Spatial Information Network Australia (EMSINA).
