GEO Week provides a unique forum where governments, businesses, the research community, non-for-profit organisations and other communities concerned with the well-being of our planet come together to share views, mature the overall vision for the GEO future, cooperate on issues and create solutions. Building on the Mexico City Declaration from 2015, the GEO Week 2019 focused on the GEO Strategic Plan aiming to bring the GEO communities together in order to grow the understanding and importance of Earth Observations. Most of the business decisions today need to carefully consider how they impact the changes of “GEO”, our planet.

Alarmingly, many once-modern formats are now considered ‘critically endangered’. According to the worldwide Digital Preservation Coalition, such formats include portable magnetic media more than 5 years old, including floppy disks, Zip disks, reel-based magnetic tape, MiniDV and digital audio tape (DAT).
In securing our digital heritage, the National Archives of Australia has led the way in preserving and migrating files on these at-risk media to sustainable formats. Read the full press release

Presentation View Unified Customer View - Customer Master Record Solution (CMRS) and Data Management Platform (DMP)
City of Sydney desires to improve our understanding and the way we communicate with our customers and stakeholders. Initially this will be by development of a trusted Customer Master Record Solution (CMRS), bringing together our disparate customer records. This will allow us to make updates across all relevant systems, facilitating excellent customer service and streamlining internal processes. It is envisaged that the solution will be developed on a Data Management Platform (DMP), which should improve Data Quality and reinforce Data Governance. Via an open Expression of Interest, companies will be invited to propose their capability and solutions. They will be evaluated by their proposals for inclusion in a subsequent paid engagement to demonstrate abilities, proof of concept and innovative value add. During this engagement, companies will have the opportunity to better understand the problems, request additional information, and identify opportunities for unique value add. Selection for a final contract award will be by evaluating the deliverables at the end of the engagement. If you are interested in being involved in this upcoming Expression of Interest, please provide your contact details in this link by the 18th of October 2019 to be notified when this event opens. Monica Barone Chief Executive Officer. |
