‘With the outstanding assistance for our bid presentation from the Northern Territory Convention Bureau, the local Darwin Organising Committee are proud to host the biennial event in Australia’s most Northern Capital for the first time in its 29 year history. The ARSPC is the RS&P Commission’s premier conference showcasing the best of Australasia’s technical and application driven remote sensing and photogrammetry (RS&P) research.’

‘Due to the growth of our annual conference, returning to Darwin was not possible until the development of the new Darwin Convention Centre. APPEA is very excited to be working with the local suppliers and convention bureau to give the delegates a real taste of Northern hospitality.’

‘This will be the first time Darwin will be able to host the national Coast-to-Coast Conference, thanks to the opening of the world-class, Darwin Convention Centre. Its relaxed, waterfront location and ambience and proximity to the stunning coastal wetlands and diverse marine life of Darwin Harbour, will ensure that Coast-to-Coast 2008 will be an outstanding success.’

‘The choice of Darwin for our 26th NIBA convention recognises the need for a new and very different destination and provides easy encouragement for delegates to extend their stay and explore the wonders of the Top End. There’s already a lot of interest and we can’t wait to get there!’

‘This will be the first time in 25 years that our annual Australian Veterinary Association conference will be held in Darwin. The Darwin Convention Centre will now be added to our national rotation and we’ll be back every few years. The size of the Centre gives us the flexibility to grow, as we expect Darwin, with all it has to offer, will be a great drawcard for our members.’
