The dust is finally settling after another stellar Locate conference, and four phenomena revealed themselves as ubiquitous, rapidly developing and happening right now.
Locate co-located with Geosmart Asia for 2018 to provide a bustling, inspiring three days of presentations, networking, and socialising for delegates at the Adelaide Convention Centre.
Whilst being physically impossible to attend all the promising sessions across the seven concurrent tracks presented in the event’s main program, certain developments, trends and technologies revealed themselves as ubiquitous over the course of the conference.
Below we summarise some of the key take-aways and trends of this year’s Locate — ideas and developments that wove themselves through a myriad of applications, technologies and disciplines, and will continue to make their presence felt in the years to come.
