After a long hiatus GeoRabble is finally returning to Sydney for one last hurrah before we say goodbye to 2021.

That’s right, you read correctly folks: a real life face-to-face event, where all backgrounds will be real and no one will be on mute. (apart from when our wonderful speakers will be presenting, of course)

Thanks to our generous sponsors at Mercury Project Solutions, there will even be some food provided on the night.

Register now to reserve your spot at *THE* GeoGeek event of the season. Places are limited!

Speakers:

• Nick Evershed, the data and interactives editor for Guardian Australia, will be talking about visualising COVID-19 data for the public.
• Mary-Ellen Feeny will be tackling the ‘allied industries’, discussing spatial and the converging environments of data science, engineering, automation, predictive analytics.
• Alex Allchin will be presenting on treasure hunting with old maps, detailing his adventures in using modern tech to find survey marks from the 1800s.
• Brittany Dahl will be sharing her experience mentoring the next generation of GeoGeeks.
• Wilson Yung will be speaking about using mobility data analysis to understand post-lockdown business recovery.

For those new to GeoRabble, our event is a chance to catch up with other GIS folks and make new friends. There will also be a few presentations strictly adhering to the following rules:

• Presentations no longer than 10 minutes.
• Celebrate each others’ triumphs.
• Respect each others’ choice – no technology bigotry.
• No sales pitches – this includes services, software, data etc.
• No company logos or ‘about us’ slides.

We look forward to seeing you there - in person - at:
