AGS-SA/ICE Short Video Competition
Download Flyer Collaboration between industry and academia can drive innovation and progress in many industries, including Civil Engineering. To encourage thought about this matter the SA/NT Chapter of the AGS, the SA branch of the ICE and Aurecon invite students and young practitioners of Civil Engineering to make a 2 minute video addressing one of the topics below: Topic 1 Can new fields of study and activity (e.g. artificial intelligence, robotics, nanotechnology, biotechnology, etc) have a major impact on civil engineering practice unless there is good collaboration between industry and academia? Topic 2 Is it safe in for a Civil Engineering Organisation not to innovate? What are the risks in innovation and how can they be managed? Topic 3 What…
AGS Tasmania Radar Interferometry Workshop, early 2020
Seeking Expressions of Interest:AGS Workshop on INSAR and its Applications for Understanding Ground Movement For more information and to register your interest, please see the Expression of Interest flyer. Radar interferometry (InSAR) is a rapidly expanding technique that offers valuable insight into ground deformation for a range of applications, particularly in the field of geotechnics. Due to advancing radar technology and increasing numbers of satellites, the quality and frequency of spaceborne radar coverage available for InSAR is continually improving. An increasing range of radar datasets are becoming freely available, further increasing application potential in geotechnical studies of various scale. However, InSAR is a technically complex technology necessitating appropriate planning, processing, and interpretation. This workshop is aimed at providing end-users and…
