AWARDS HISTORY

APSEA Winners Archive

For over a decade we have been honoring individuals and organisations in the geospatial sector through the Asia Pacific Spatial Excellence Awards (APSEAs).

Hosted by SIBA|GITA and SSSI, and supported by the four pillars of our industry – academia, government, research and the private sector – these awards were an opportunity to celebrate our rising stars and excellence within our sector.

The APSEAs were held regionally across Australia and New Zealand, culminating in a national gala dinner at our annual Locate conference.

The establishment of the Geospatial Council of Australia resulted in a renaming of these awards to align with our new organisation, and they are now recognised as the Geospatial Excellence Awards.
