Place and Purpose 2009
Applying landscape science to Natural Resource Management
This is the second Place and Purpose Symposium that will bring together people interested in the latest developments and research on Natural Resource Management and Planning.
The Symposium builds upon the success of the first event held in Bendigo 2007 and provides the opportunity to interact with the expertise and technology of the Surveying and Spatial Sciences Institute (SSSI). The Symposium is being organised by the South Australian Landscape Science Cluster with support from SSSI's Spatial Information and Cartography Commission and will feature two days of quality presentations from key note speakers, regional NRM personnel and researchers.
Select presentations will be available as podcasts.
