Outback Aerodrone Symposium 2018 Report

In August 2018 RAPAD held the first Outback Aerodrone Symposium in Barcaldine. The event introduced the region to the drone industry and the region to the potential of drone technology.

This report is an overview of the Outback Aerodrone Symposium in 2018.

This symposium was conducted for a range of reasons given the dynamic pace at which drones are entering the everyday workplace.

A key reason was to build capacity for our region and to provide information to the agriculture and local government sectors on integration of drones, through demonstrations and presentations from industry leaders.

Another significant reason for the symposium was the promotion of CWQ as a drone testing site which links with the RAPAd Strategic Plan, the digital Strategy and ARiP Projects and other initiatives
