The Charles Sturt University in Wagga Wagga is hosting another "Mapped Out" conference tomorrow and six people from work are attending. The conference showcases the use of Spatial Data to enhance the operation and delivery of Government services, and last year we saw some amazing applications that different councils have used.
Our Manager for Planning and Development is one of the speakers, to talk about Junee’s new ‘Landsurfing’ project, which was designed to stimulate business and economic activity by providing answers to critical questions quickly and effectively. The tool will be beneficial for property developers, solicitors and surveyors to quickly locate land with particular criteria. For instance, if you need a large block near a railroad head, with a sealed road nearby, on flat land, you tick the boxes that apply and the program returns all the blocks of land in the area that meet your criteria. It's very innovative for a small council like Junee, and we're all very proud.
